Theatrical and Unrated Cuts: The Blu-ray edition of The Man with the Iron Fists features a 95-minute R-rated theatrical version and a lengthier 107-minute unrated cut, which ups the ante by 12 extra minutes. Not that it makes any difference. More indulgent than beneficial, the unrated cut simply draws out the pain. (Or the pleasure, I suppose, depending on your take.) Deleted Scenes (HD, 24 minutes): Sadly, there are only a fistful of extras. First up? Five deleted and extended scenes, among them "The Saga of Gold Lion," "Jack Knife Journey Through Wolf Mountain," "Zen Yi and Chan Make Camp," "Blacksmith Doctors Zen Yi" and "Mirror Maze." A Look Inside (HD, 2 minutes): The RZA, self-proclaimed Abbott of the Wu Tang Clan, talks about teaming up with "my boy Quentin Tarantino and Eli Roth to make a fat joint of my own" in this brief EPK. RZA is an engaging, enthusiastic host, though; so much so that I found myself wishing the disc had a fuller production documentary. On the Set with RZA (HD, 5 minutes): I had high hopes for this five-part tease. Unfortunately, it's nothing more than a series of five one-minute promos: "The Journey Begins," "Casting Legends," "Respect the Classics," "Visualizing the Story" and "First Person Shooter." A Path to the East (HD, 2 minutes): Yet another quick peek behind the scenes with RZA. My Scenes Bookmarking DVD Copy |
