This movie is so bad that you can't stop watching it. The martial arts scenes are worse than the stuff you did as a kid in the living room of your shitty house when you were growing up. Watch this movie if you dare! David Carridine plays three roles!

Yeah, it's utter shit.

This is a good example of what you get when you combine a martial arts movie with a first time casting director whose career ended three years later. With a better cast I think they could have done more with the martial arts, but you've got Carradine who's about as athletic as my dead grandmother and that Michael Bolton leading man who just...didn't...look...the...part. I'm not really sure what they were going for with him.

The script is OK, if you like your Eastern philosophy a tad higher than fortune cookie wisdom. I get where Bruce Lee and company were coming from, but this is what you get when you combine good drugs with reading too many Alan Watts books.

The funniest part of the whole affair is that Kung Fu Panda blatantly ripped off the ending.

Is it worse than Mega Python vs. Gatoroid starring Tiffany and Debbie Gibson? Currently playing on SyFy channel?

Naw, I'm kind of with Shapecharge...there are bad movies like SyFy originals, and then there's stuff like Circle of Iron that is bad but at least presents you with shit you've never seen before. Eli Wallach sitting in a tub of oil in the middle of the desert...it gives you that goofy head cocked look like when a dog hears a strange noise...it at least delivers that.

But hey, it's got Christopher Lee in it. And Lee is awesome in everything.
