Synopsis

A martial arts master seeking to save his brother from a murderous drug lord infiltrates a ferocious underground fighting ring despite the danger of knowing every move he makes could be his last. His brother is being used as an expendable drug mule by a Far East dope slinger, and now one determined fighter (Gary Daniels) will have to blast his way through some of the most vicious brawlers on the planet in order to make his way to the top and save his sibling from an unimaginably cruel fate.

Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Wizard-8 Gary Daniels has made a number of B-grade martial arts movies that I have enjoyed. Unfortunately, this early effort with him is not among his gems. I am sure he himself is embarrassed by this movie for a number of reasons. Here, he has a haircut (or rather, lack of a haircut) that is unintentionally funny, and he (as well as many of the other actors) have looped their dialogue in the recording studio with voices that often don't match with the mouth movements and body movements of what's on screen. Movie is hastily shot, with very little on screen that you would identify with "American". As for the fights, they are nothing exciting at all. You can safely skip this one.
Gladius77-1 The DVD box displayed such phrases as "There are some streets you don't double-cross" and "When war comes home, and home is the streets, you turn to... American STREETFIGHTER". Say that in the movie-trailer voice, and it will sound awesome. I was hoping that this would an overblown action movie, not good, but entertaining enough that I could laugh at how stupid it was. No luck.The movie is... mediocre. The story is mediocre, the fight scenes are mediocre, the acting is mediocre. Okay, it picks up a little during a fight at the dojo, which is enjoyably stupid- featuring a motorcycle driving through a door that is quite obviously made of styrofoam, and the one guy in the movie with a gun choosing to pistol-whip people instead of, I dunno, shooting bullets at them. Still, the whole experience is mediocre- It's not bad enough to laugh at, and it's not good enough to enjoy. The whole thing is just boring. Two years later, Street Fighter, starring Van Damme and Raul Julia came out. At least that one you can laugh at.And for a movie about street-fighting, there sure is a lot of time spent in the countryside...
sveknu After the total disaster whose name was "Capital Punishment", every person with a tiny bit of sense in his/her mind should think that Gary Daniels would actually try to make a better movie this time. But no! This is nearly as bad. The only thing that's better here is the story. Although it was really bad, it still was progress from the total lack of plot in "Capital Punishment". Here, you could at least understand what was going on. Anyway, when a martial arts movie has a bad story (as they usually do), you focus on the fight scenes. There are lots and lots of them, but unfortunately they all just stink. It had been better if they had come up with ONE decent fight instead of about 15-20 extremely bad ones, but I guess the people behind this movie thought that quantity was the key.Well....it wasn't!!
magilvilla This movie has all the martial arts action Gary Daniels fans expect from the master. But, it also has a good story. It moves at a fast pace and there is a fight about every 5 to 10 minutes. The training scenes are awesome! A must see for Gary Daniels fans. Just don't waste your time on the so called sequel.
