The Man with the Iron Fists

In a dark times of medieval China, when small feudal villages were faced the risk of plundering and burning to ashes by any band swindlers, a reckless blacksmith decides to defend his fellow villagers from attacking sons of gun. RZA, who is in charge of The Man with the Iron Fists, just for your interest – is a director, producer, writer and a leading role actor of the movie (like four in one), and of course he plays the Blacksmith, who is leading the villagers to the convincing and final victory of justice. The way he does it is an extraordinary one: he transforms the power of iron weapons, such as swords, spears and shields, in the power of living human body, his body, making him unbeatable. The authorship of this weird idea belongs to RZA (who may doubt?) and there are some rumors the nurtured this idea from 2005 year. Distributed by Universal Pictures, The Man with the Iron Fists despite its meager budget of $20 millions features quite a stellar cast: besides the abovementioned RZA, the movie starring: Russell Crowe, Lucy Liu, Jamie Chung, RZA, Dave Bautista, Pam Grier, Cung Le, Rick Yune, Osric Chau, Zhu Zhu, Chia Hui Liu, Daniel Wu, Celina Jade, Byron Mann, Dennis Chan (it's more likely that you know everyone from this list, may be exempt those who have Chinese surnames).
