Looks interesting. I was surprised at the vehemence against Iron Monkey, a film I actually enjoyed quite a bit. It's been a while since I saw it, but I thought it was quick, funny and action-packed.
House of Flying Daggers was overhyped. Cool action, beautiful scenery, awful story.
The last section of "Flying Daggers" was quite lame - I was having a lot of fun with it until it just fell apart and became a very stupid melodrama.
But "Iron Monkey" literally had no good qualities, in my opinion - not skillfull or fun, just a dreadful peice of film making. in fact, that's going far too easy on it. It's quite high on my worst of all time list. That is, of course, just one opinion, though.
