VHS Movie Reviews of Fists of Iron [VHS]Movie Review: lots & lots & lots of fight action Summary: 4 StarsFists of Iron gave me mixed feeling when watching. Some parts of the movie are really good, and I even got into the plot but then the next scene can get real cheesy, and then vice versa. Overall, the plot was ok, nothing original and the character cast overall was decent, but the amount of action in the movie still makes for good entertainment.
Biggest reason I wanted Fists of Iron was Matthias Hues, probably one of my favorite martial art bad guys who stars in many movies such as Kickboxer 2, No Retreat No Surrender 2, Blackbelt, Death Match, and Talons of the Eagle to name a few. Again he plays the bad guy in Fists of Iron who gets the big final fight scene versus the character played by Michael Worth (To Be The Best, Final Impact). Michael Worth is the star and gives an alright performance, though his character seems to similar to that of his other films.
Every moment in the film seems to have a fight, either in the ring, in a bar, or outside at a variety of locale. The main stage for the movie takes place in the ring, located on the lawn in front of a mansion owned by a gambling fight promoter, whos fighter is the Matthias Hues character. A fight kills the Michael Worth character's brother early on, setting the stage for revenge - seen it a hundred times but whatever, its the fights that still make this movie worth it.
Fists of Iron is not a bad martial movie at all, its just not very original. The bright spot is the amount of action, and hard hitting action thanks to the style of directing. Matthias Hues fans will dig this.
