Le masque de fer

It says that Oleg is one of the leading feature film directors in Russia. Sorry, not leading, not even know who he is, nobody knows him in Russia and I wish he hadn't made this movie. With such a cast making "this" was almost impossible but he did it, bravo, awful movie. Long, as stupid as only an ignorant can make it. Depictions of Russia, China and London are probably taken from Soviet poster caricatures. I think Arnold and Jackie will be ashamed of this movie, I cannot believe it stars Pavel Volya, an excellent stand up comedian.

BAD BAD BAD, please Oleg, don't make any more movies...........

This is advertised as a movie starring Jackie Chan and Arnold Schwarzenegger but this is complete FRAUD. These 2 actors play side-line characters, which can't even be considered supporting roles, and appear for a minuscule amount of screen time.

The story is a nonsensical mess and the opposite of entertaining. The actual main actors are terrible and, I am not sure if they are to blame or the dumpster fire script, but calling them B-Movie actors would be a massive insult to B-Movie actors so I don't have the words to describe how bad the acting is.

This movie is not worth going into a more detailed review on, it is just complete garbage and someone should sue the producers for false advertising. Message me here if you want a plaintiff for that lawsuit, as I was unable to get my money back since I live in a terrible country for consumers.

An unlikely encounter between different cultures

It includes: the Russian iron mask, martial arts experts, pirates, monsters, characters from Mortal Kombat, a dwarf, old Chinese sages, tea leaves, people who fly very high, kosacks who do not speak, enemy brothers, supporting roles which are sometimes there for 15 seconds, a final scene worthy of a Marvel of the fox, very bad villains, very cowardly cowards, dragons and a lot of WTF :)

The script is a bit messy, and feels like you've seen it before. Some main characters have no explanations , and the Deus ex machina are numerous ... Do not watch this film for the screenplay, or to discover something ... No, it's pure entertainment.

And I have seen worse, much worse. If you have a childish soul, and you miss the epic adventure films, with an Asian tendency, this film could please you.

It's really a shame that the English dubbing ruins everything.

To watch on a Sunday evening to have a good time.

There's a dragon. There is healing tea growing from the dragon's eyelashes. There are white wizards and dark wizards. There is a princess and a fake princess. Master (Jackie Chan) is imprisoned in London under the warden James Hook (Arnold Schwarzenegger). His cellmate is the Man in the Iron Mask who claims to be Russia's Peter The Great. Miss Dudley is desperate to find her love Jonathan Green (Jason Flemyng) who is traveling with Cheng Lan to China. She's the princess and the daughter of the Master. Miss Dudley tries to free the Master and the Iron Mask.

Well, Jackie Chan and Arnold are only playing minor roles. At least, they get to have one fight. That is almost enough to recommend this. It's the fight that we've been waiting for. If only, it happened two decades ago. As for the main plot, it's a lot of conveniences. It's a little convoluted but relatively easy to follow. It's somewhat bad but not the worst thing in the world. Mostly, I kept wondering why Jackie Chan isn't in the group. It's a big mistake to show the audience Jackie and continue the plot without him.

Had really high expectations from this movie and was highly disappointed after watching it. It is terrible on every level. I dont know how actors like Jackie Chan and Arnold can opt to be partnof such a terrible movie. Being in lock down, in UK watches it as a family on virgin media, paid £6 for it... I can say that was money and time both wasted. 100% horrible
