		.......as the two fought they both recognize each other's fighting style. Wong learns that Hin Hung was the shaolin monk who conspired with the evil government, & burned Shaolin Temple to the ground. Hin with no remorse just wanted Wong dead, & this time hitting him with a 'double shaolin golden palm. Wong barely escapes by kicking a concrete drum towards Hin Hung who gets knocked in the head with it. Meanwhile a badly wounded Iron Monkey made it back to his clinic, & Miss Ho quickly tends to him. Moments later, Wong Kei Ying also badly wounded , made it to the clinic as well.  As Miss Ho quickly notices Wong Kei Ying in the clinic, she quickly covered Iron Monkey with a huge blanket. As Wong Kei Ying calls for Dr. Yang to seek medical help, is suddenly held back by his son Wong Fei Hung on the right leg. Wong Kei Ying although Iron Monkey 's knocked out body is covered by blanket, he quickly notices the kung fu shoes that body's wearing & quickly was able to comprehend that Dr. Yang is also Iron Monkey. With Miss Ho defending Iron Monkey's wounded body from Wong Kei Ying, he quickly explains that he understood & instead he would help Iron Monkey get back to health. Wong himself is getting worse, time passes & both Iron Monkey, & Wong Kei Ying is back to good health, cured of the powerful SHAOLIN PALM. Suddenly General Shang knocks on their door informing them that Hin Hung has issued a warrant of arrest against Wong Kei Ying & Iron Monkey, & both are forced to flee to Fushan for safety. Miss Ho will stay at the clinic along with Wong Fei Hung in order for them to be safe. Without loss of time, the evil monks crashes in the clinic, & quickly attempted to rape Miss Ho. As Miss Ho shows the evil monks her fierce kung fu skills (this is by far one of most beautiful female action choreography ever filmed, unbelievable!!!) unfortunately is cheated by ether powder, & was brought to the ground. When the evil monks was about to rape her, Wong Fei Hung crashes himself through a second story window sporting a long wooden stick. After rescuing Miss Ho, he quickly dispatches the evil monks, unfortunately is kidnapped by the evil swordswoman.

		Final Note: "I enjoyed this movie through & through, very fun , &  enjoyable kung fu movie. Yu Rong Guang,  Donnie Yen, & Jean Wang's kung fu mastery is simply breathtaking indeed!  Let's not forget little Wong Fei Hung's performance as well. The story, & plot are simple to follow. It also has a few dynamic camera angles utilized , similar to "FIRE DRAGON."  The music is definitely awe-inspiring, fits the mood of the scene, helps bring more life to the characters, & story. Add to that Yuen Woo Ping's beautiful martial arts choreography automatically cements 'Iron Monkey, to the Kung Fu Flicks Hall Of Fame!!! A Definite Classic!!! 1 - 10 Dagons, It is my honor to give "IRON MONKEY" a perfect rating of 10 DAGONS.

	Interesting Fact: "For those of you who saw the new "CHARLIE'S ANGELS" movie starring Cameron Diaz, Lucy Liu, & Drew Barrymore. I would like to point out that, many...if not...all of the FIGHTING SCENES in that movie was copied MOVE FOR MOVE straight from "IRON MONKEY". I have to say that, I was very excited when I first saw the trailer for "CHARLIE'S ANGELS" seeing Hollywood finally accepting the "Wire FU' concept in making Martial Arts films. Only to be disappointed when I quickly recognized the fighting moves of Lucy Liu's castle top battle, doing the vertical spin with her opponent. Drew Barrymore's battle with a bunch of henchmens, exactly the same move for move of Jean Wang's fighting scene with the evil monks, & more... I must say if you are a kung fu connousier like me, who loves Asian Cinema, as well American Cinema, it's a very disappointing feeling when you see a major studio production like "CHARLIE'S ANGLES" be utterly worthless because the think tank behind the action choreography couldn't think of anything remotely original. I wouldn't be surprised if they had taken moves from other kung fu flicks. Even worse, not even one single credit went towards Yuen Cheung Yan, Yuen Shun Yi, & Ku Huen Chiu who are the actual, & original group of talented action choreographer who came up with the moves."
