(aka "Jie tou sha shou" )
directed by Ho-ping Yuen
Hong Kong 1996
Where "Iron Monkey" perhaps is one of the best kung-fu flicks
ever made, its sequel "Iron Monkey 2" can enjoy the privilege of
being one of the worst. And where the first was directed by Yuen Wo-Ping,
who after making Jet Li famous went to the US and became choreograph on
films like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Matrix" and "Kill Bill", the
sequel is directed by Yuen Ho-Ping (probably in order to con fans).
Taking place 100 years after the first, Iron Monkey has to fight the Jade
Tiger, who is a really bad guy making deals with the Russians.
