Mel A. @inflexible Mar 17 This movie is awesome with its fight choreography, locations, lighting and directing and the ensemble cast. It definitely is a gem and should not be rated this low by any standards. See more Samuel N. @kYzAs0zE Dec 13 One of the best Martial Arts movie in the 90’s. Anyone who dislikes this movie is bonkers. I would put this movie up against the likes of Gone with the Wind, Godfather, Titanic etc. and no this is not me trolling or making a joke.

See more thiago s @Thiagostone 04/12/2025 Filme bacaninha para mais ou menos, o roteiro é mais ou menos, as cenas de luta são bacaninhas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, só o van damme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, o filme colocou um torneio de vários lutadores de outros países, como Alemanha, Japão, Brasil, França, Espanha, e também o Estados Unidos que foi claramente representado pelo Jean Claude Van Damme, que obviamente venceu o torneio, com tudo isso, eu meio que recomendo esse filme com várias cenas de luta que foram boas.

How did this not win 6 Oscars See more Luca D @RT15456367 05/09/2024 "The Quest" is undoubtedly the best Jean Claude Van Damme movie I've ever seen. Compared to this film, other great titles like "Kickboxer" or "Bloodsport" simply pale in comparison, as "The Quest" ascends to an entirely new level of complexity. At its core is a significant story—an epic hero's journey that profoundly changes the main character. He undergoes a myriad of trials, growing emotionally and personally until he becomes the great man we see at the beginning of the film; indeed, the entire story unfolds through an extended flashback. The characters are almost all memorable, especially the two buccaneers, embodying the classic cunning duo of the cat and the fox. Dobs is a wonderfully flawed character who, despite appearances, undergoes a profound transformation during the movie. The theme of the journey—a long adventure in exotic locales—is rendered in a memorable way, and the backstory of Christopher Dubois is genuinely moving. The final martial arts tournament is a steroid-enhanced version of what you see in "Bloodsport," and the ultimate villain is terrifying—a warrior of unimaginable power, might, and strength, with a truly insane costume. The nations are represented magnificently, like watching the fighting game of my dreams come to life. This film is a crescendo of emotions, with stunning costumes and cinematography. The soundtrack is the best I've ever heard in a Van Damme martial arts film, easily on par with "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story." I highly recommend this spectacular film. See more Read all reviews
