GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Comeuppance Reviews Ace kickboxer David Sloan (Mitchell) travels to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, along with his trainer/mentor Xian (Chan) for an exhibition bout. When destitute street scamp Marcos (Verduzco) tries to steal his camera, Sloan realizes Marcos and his sister Isabella (Miranda) have a hard life and need some guidance and understanding. So he takes a liking to the two urchins. Meanwhile, Sloan prepares to face off against an evil, ruthless kickboxer named Martine (Jacklin). His manager is Lane (Comar), a criminal who also has his hands in white slavery and prostitution. When Lane and his goons kidnap Isabella, it becomes personal for Sloan, and he, along with Xian and Marcos ("The gringo, the philosopher, and the boy", as their "Machine Gun Joe" character notes) go on a revenge mission to save Isabella and get justice. Will they succeed? We really enjoyed Kickboxer 3. It's a lot more entertaining and fun than you might think. The whole concept of a guy, who, as far as we know, is just a simple kickboxer, going on a dangerous mission and shooting people to save a girl he really just met is just so great. More plots should be like this. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what it is, but something about Sasha Mitchell is also very appealing. He makes a good lead man. A total change of pace from Van Damme, Mitchell appears to be the ultimate California dude. A cross between Freddie Prinze Jr. and Keanu Reeves, when we first see him in the movie he's wearing red overalls with no shirt. And his outfits just get better from there on in. Plus he has a winning chuckle that really brings you over to his side. And when Lane hatches his nefarious plan to "tire him out" before the big fight, his assistant says, "he's like a machine!" - the fact that he's an indefatigable warrior who is proficient in guns as well as fists, but that he also cares about children, makes you really root for him.Mitchell has some amazing line readings as well...but his wardrobe is quite impressive: he has not just one, but two Benny The Jet shirts. Giving him a counterpart in the clothing department is his wise sensei Xian. Xian is always ready with a learned maxim, such as "clothes don't make a woman beautiful...but it helps!" A movie highlight comes when, in their travels around Rio to get answers, they run into a gay Samba choreographer. For some unknown reason, this guy has goons! In the midst of some sort of Carnival rehearsals, he sics his goons on Sloan, Xian and Marcos! It's nutty ideas like this that move Kickboxer 3 above its seemingly lowly status as a third entry in a series. But let's also remember director Rick King's previous movie before this was Prayer of The Rollerboys (1990). So, there you go.But back to Sloan's true nemesis, Martine, Ian Jacklin doesn't say too many actual lines of dialogue (It's mainly just your classic yells of "RAAAAHHHH!!!), but he's still sufficiently evil. He even taunts his opponents by spontaneously breaking into a dance of "The Running Man". Weirdly, Ian Jacklin, here more than ever, resembles another Ian, Brown. Both the actor/fighter and the singer for The Stone Roses have a distinctly monkey-like face and could be brothers. No insult is intended, it's simply a description. Ian Brown should have gone into acting instead of pursuing a solo career. Then a movie could be made where Keanu Reeves and Sasha Mitchell are brothers, and Ian Jacklin and Ian Brown are brothers. Sadly, it looks like we won't see that imaginary film any time soon.While there is a bit of filler during the "evil training" sequence, Kickboxer 3 provides solid entertainment and is pretty crowd-pleasing. Some of its more absurd moments and ideas help a lot, as does its winning cast, so we can certainly recommend it.

don-dragonfire This movie is one of the best American Martial Art Movies, in my opinion. I have to spoil it just a little, but I will do so without giving away the plot, the scene, or even the premises of the film.However, I must say we learn about values again, in the third entry of this series. I like Sasha Miller again, as more of a natural real kickboxer than Van Damme, who seemed more like a Hollywood guy. Sasha Miller seems like your everyday struggling green belt at your local dojo (due to his lack of temper control he seems like a real green belt, although his physical techniques do approach brown belt level).Martial art theory is considered, through even the very beginning as Xian comments about airplane travel being unnatural to a martial artist who is seeking to adapt to changing altitude, latitudes, angles, and velocities, as a way of life.I do not want to spoil the plot or story, but can say it involves martial art attitudes towards resiliency under harsh hostile training conditions, dealing with corruption all around when you are an ethical martial artist, and the laws of Karma (you will always receive your just rewards). These are the REAL struggles we deal with in contemporary urban America, and although the movie takes place in a corrupt land, unfortunately, this type of corruption is present in our country, at times also, since the ME generation obliterated the love and peace attitudes of the 60s.I can not say anymore for I will give the movie away. Most critics only gave it one or two stars, probably because so few critics and people today, understand what TRUE martial arts entails, with the newer martial art movies that emphasize 1990-2000 style Aerobic style kick boxing, acrobatics, and explosions over martial art training, resiliency, and ethics. If you can believe what critics say, the MATRIX series was a SUPERB martial art movie and Karate Kid4 was boring????? Oh well! This movie is a must see for all serious martial artists.Don Dragonfire

Sandcooler Because every character that was ever in this franchise is apparently dead (and they say squash is dangerous), we get this new bad guy named, of all things, Martine. Will he be able to stop the fury of cousin Cody and some random kid? Will the subplot ever provide any thrills? Well, no on both matters. You know you're not entertained when you wonder where Tong Po went. He wasn't that cool either but the new villains look like they were recruted at a local 7-11. The action scenes in this movie are really boring, especially the actual kick-boxing the title promises is really poorly executed. It's just so obvious the actors aren't touching each other. The writing is as lazy as it can get, our kickboxer even gets to give a moral lesson near the end. Even more sequels follow, I don't think I'll watch them.

bronsonskull72 Sasha Mitchell returns as David Sloan, this time he's in Rio fighting a bunch of thugs who run a white slavery ring, when Mitchell's friend is kidnapped he's forced to fight. Somehow Rick King has managed to make a even worse sequel, things go from stupid to completely ridiculous when main bad guy Richard Comar forces Sasha Mitchell to train. While the action scenes themselves are lame, As a whole K3 serves as a prime example of what killed Mitchell's promising career. Plus what does the subtitle Art Of War have to do with the movie anyway? 1/5 Matt Bronson
