Capsule review

As the master-mind behind the Wu-Tang Clan, RZA conquered the world of hip-hop in the 1990s. Now he gets out of the recording studio and into the director’s chair as his career goes where it has perhaps been leading all along: helming a crazy kung-fu movie. Eli Roth co-wrote the script (along with RZA), and it centers on a blacksmith (RZA) who makes outlandish weapons for a big battle in feudal China. Russell Crowe stars. The soundtrack, no doubt, will be bumping. Rated R. 96 minutes.
