Ironheart : Manny Montana is all set to join Marvel Studios Disney+ .
The story of Ironheart is the story of a man who has to take on his demons to be able to save his family and the people he loves. It’s also the story of a policeman with a buried past, who has to finally come face-to-face with what he’s done, and then confront it if he wants any chance at redemption. This is a film that starts with a brutal murder. A woman is abducted, taken to the middle of nowhere, drugged, raped, and murdered…by Shane Daniels (played by Charles Bronson). The story then flashes forward ten years. Now Daniels has changed his name to John Hardin and runs a gas station in Los Angeles.
What is the plot of the story?
The only real indication of what will happen is the opening scene of the film, where a man whose name is unknown is viciously attacked by Daniels and his men. The victim is drugged and naked on the ground when Daniels walks up for a closer look…and then plunges a knife into him. The victim’s identity is never revealed, but the police are trying to track him down. They have a list of people who have been drugged and raped.
Who is in the cast? What role did each character portray?
The cast includes Bolo Yeung Richard Norton, Charles Bronson, and Britton Lee. Bolo Yeung portrayed the role of Yee Chiang, a killer for a drug dealer, who was impaled in the chest by the leading role. His character was a 5-finger filer. Richard Norton was the bad guy, offering a complete contrast to Bolo Yeung’s name. Richard Norton portrayed the role of Daniels. Charles Bronson played his father-in-law, who was an alcoholic and was also revealed to be an abusive drunkard. Britton Lee played the role of little Elmer Andrew, Daniels’s son from a previous marriage and the last thing that he stands for.
What are the difficulties they face?
The main stumbling block they face in the story is the identity of the victim. As Daniels points out, with his father and his father-in-law having been killed by cops, and both of them looking like their dead fathers, it would be very easy for him to be caught. And it was mentioned that Diaz was called a “cop killer” because of what he did to those two cops. He also has a police record. He is an ex-policeman who went undercover for ten years and murdered people. And on top of that, he is a drug dealer. He gets paid to kill people (as in kidnap them, drug them, and then kill them).
What are the themes?
One of the themes that can be found in this film is redemption and character development. Daniels is a reformed character. Not only does he have a new identity, but he also has begun a new life, and his son will never know what his father did in the past. He has become a good man. Another theme is that belonging and acceptance. Elmer’s mother left him because she felt like she would not be accepted by society.
Who is the antagonist? What are its motives?
Daniels is the antagonist. He had murdered a person and doesn’t want to get caught for his crime. He’s the one who grabs Elmer in the first place. He has a catchphrase that he says all the time, “Justice is coming”. It’s a code name for the police tracking him down by cross-referencing his victims’ names with law enforcement records. He also drinks every night and drives around with a gun in his pocket similar to other killers we have seen in movies.
What are the epic scenes?
The scene that will probably make people think about the film when they see it is the moment of Elmer’s death. Daniels leads Elmer to a cave and tells him he has to kill somebody for him. Elmer refuses, but Daniels continues to bring him closer and closer for him to at least hold a gun in his hand. Daniels grabs the gun and then shoots Elmer in the head, killing him. It was an extremely brutal ending.

Would you recommend watching this?
I would recommend this film to moviegoers who have seen all of the classic Bronson films. This is a classic Charles Bronson film, which means it is not derivative at all. It has a lot of action and violence, which makes for a very good film if you like that sort of thing. Thanks for reading!
