“Wolf Warriors” Trailer and Review (Scott Adkins)

Tagline: “You’re Nothin’ but a bunch of boyscouts!”

In this installment of VX’s epic action films & trailers we bring you “Wolf Warriors” the legendary action film superstar Scott Adkin’s epic filmed entirely in China. This film proved to me that the east showed they can be every bit as good as the west in action film making. It would be interesting to see what other action stars could shoot over there, Adkins included. The film follows a detachment of elite Chinese soldiers named the “Wolf Warriors”. While the CGI is shaky in some parts, the story telling is done well in presenting the sequence of events. Adkins and his crew are mercenaries brought in for a shady rescue mission. Once he shows up launching a bazooka you know he means business. Adkins could have had more screen time but it’s understandable given the amount of travel he would have had to do in order to finish a project such as this. He also has an extremely bad ass hand to hand sequence where they both have some crazy moves. Definitely check this one out if you were disappointing by Jackie Chan’s “Police Story 2013: (and I was), this should make up for it. Shout out to Scott Adkins, who has his Undisputed 4: Boyka shooting soon!

according to Deadline,

Universal is making a deal to finance and distribute The Man With The Iron Fists, a stylized martial arts film that will mark the feature directorial debut of RZA, the Wu-Tang Clan co-founder who has written the screenplay with Eli Roth. RZA will play the title character, a blacksmith who forges weapons for the inhabitants of a village in feudal China. They are forced to defend themselves, and before you know it, everybody is kung fu fighting.

It looks like the abbot is also producing the soundtrack, this will hopefully deliver.
