In a desperate and unjust land, where government corruption rules the day, only one man -- known as the Iron Monkey -- has the courage to challenge the system and fight back. Under the shadow of night, in the silence before dawn, he fights to give hope to the poor and oppressed. Although no one knows his name or where he comes from, his heroism makes him a living legend to the people ... and a wanted man to the powers that be! (official distributor synopsis)

Something between a folk fairy tale and a superhero movie. I like the fantasy choreography (Yuen Woo-Ping is a magician) and the overall naive optimism that radiates from this movie when the evil officials are left to burn to a cinder and the heroes then invite each other for a polite visit. I wonder if any of the cynical lines emerged only during the dubbing.
