If you are a martial arts film fan, then this movie is a MUST!! I love kung fu films, particularly the Wuxia genre, which refers to stories that take place in ancient China. They have swords, spears, staves, axes, hammers, brass rings,.....wielded by heroes in amazing costumes and exaggerated hair styles. The best of the lot are the ones produced by the Shaw Brothers and directed by the legendary Chang Cheh. And to further break it down, the "venom" films would top my list. But if I had to choose one, and its not easy, it would have to be "The Flag of Iron" or "The Spearmen of Death". I'm sure everyone has heard this before, but this one has it all. I like Wuxia because of the incredible display of acrobatics by the highly skilled actors. The Iron Flag has non stop fighting, action and acrobatics. It stars "venom" favorites, Li Wang, Sheng Chiang and Phillip Kwok who is now a fight choreographer. Though its a simple revenge story, its actually quite involved with plenty of surprises and twists. And there is a lot of blood in this movie, not to mention a HIGH body count. What is fun about this film are the various assassins and their unique fighting styles and techniques, some of which border on the silly. For me, the movie never got boring, even in the non fight sequences because of Chiang's and Kwok's believable friendship and charm. The title refers to the weapon's used by the "Iron Flag Clan". Its literally a flag with a spear tip. It sounds funny, but in the film, they make it work. A great kung fu flick, definitely worth a view.

Underrated classic kung fu with 3 Venom Mob actors
The Flag Of Iron is a classic 1980 Shaw Brothers martial arts kung fu movie from director Chang Cheh. The movie stars a handful of the Venom Mob like Philip Kwok, Feng Lu, and Chiang Sheng in an action-packed masterpiece. This movie is a great showcase for Philip Kwok as he gets to show off his moves and abilities fighting off the 10 Assassins that were sent after him while he was exiled.New cover, booklet and poster are great additions to the 88 Films Blu-ray release and also an audio commentary that is entertaining. Wish there were more extras but love this film overall!
