Michael P @RT08178015 Jun 20 This is not a great movie. This is not a good movie. I'm not even sure this is a bad movie. But this is a weird movie. It has the hazy appeal that a lot of films from the late 70s had before blockbuster action movies took over the industry. I think it's worth a watch if you have the time. It gets five stars for being a freaky little trip, even if the acting, cinematography, and script are a little off. I wouldn't spend money on it, but it's the great kind of movie to stumble upon on late night TV. I suppose that isn't a thing anymore though. It's probably on youtube. See more Interested P @Interested Jun 13 This movie contains plenty of elements we'd now simply call tropes, but there is no doubt a fearlessness and honesty to the storytelling that makes the work function as a whole. Furthermore, for the limited budget, the scenery and production design all work to make the movie feel absolutely dreamy. It's definitely worth the watch on a lazy Sunday afternoon. See more Steve Y @Cubby65 Jan 24 An odd production of a story co-written by its intended star Bruce Lee, but acted here by Hollywood's favorite Lee stand-in David Carradine. Alluring enough that a teenaged me watched it over and over on cable TV in the 80s, before I knew what real martial arts looked like. See more Dr K @RT49635929 Sep 15 Listen here, spiritual seekers! The movie was a bit slow to get going... but the depth is there. A must watch for any true seeker! Trust me, you'll see... and you should trust me, because I am you! ;) See more the r @4star 07/08/2025 Fairy tale like story produced in true great B movie fashion. B movies back then had inventive production techniques, great original musical scores and usually a well written story with at least a few great actors. The naivety that some B movies had were its strengths not its weakness. Circle of Iron had all the making of a great B movie and is a testament to its time. In a land that never was with characters that always are, Circle of Iron takes you on a Zen journey for the answers we all seek in life. This movie is a classic. For the haters of this movie, rest assured these type of movies will never be made again. See more Eric G @Eric_Griffin 05/16/2025 Another idea by Bruce Lee ruined by David Carradine. Also a very poor representation of Eastern Philosophy. This film claims to show Buddhist beliefs, but it really only touches on one at the very end of the film. Lots of bad acting, boring challenges, bad fighting and poor excuses for wisdom. See more Read all reviews
