Iron Monkey

A city in China is ruled by a corrupt governor. The only savior for the poor and weak is a vigilante named Iron Monkey. The Governor has been unable to capture him so far. This is where Won Kei-ying (Donnie Yen) and his son Wong Fei-hung enter the scene. Won is forced to search for Iron monkey as his son is held captive by the governor. Iron monkey, who is loved by the masses is in fact alter ego of a noble physician Yang Tianchun (Yu Rongguant). Watch out for some breath taking martial arts choreography. This is a somewhat fictionalized account in the life of Wong Fei-hung who is a legend in Chinese popular culture.
