Flashy and fun, and a nifty showcase for Yen.

It's just too bad that Legend Of The Fist breaks up that action with long scenes of well-dressed men and women sitting around in nightclubs, talking politics.

This isn't at the same level of quality as Yen's "Ip Man 2," which played earlier this year and was one of the best martial arts movies in a long time. But it is entertaining, even if it does ask you to suspend boatloads of disbelief.

Pleasantly old fashioned, with plush period sets of '20s Shanghai and actual hand-to-hand combat.

This superhero spin on a largely Eastern legend will appeal primarily to Asian genre aficionados on homevid.
