Audience Member EIN OSCAR GEWINNER HAT AUCH EINE VERGANGENHEIT Bolo Yeung in einem Kleid, aber kaum Screentime. Man nutzt ihn hier als Aufhänger. Die Handlung dreht sich um eine Plastikpizza die absolut keinen Sinn ergibt, wenn man das Finale betrachtet. Shorty macht zusammen mit seinem Filmbruder ne gute Figur und die Kämpfe sind gut anzusehen. Trainingsmontagen machen ebenso ein gutes Feeling, allerdings nervt das aufkochen der Kickboxer Musik "Eagels Buddha". Schauspielerisch ist das ganze natürlich totaler Mist, aber man erwartet hier auch nicht viel. Das Finale findet dann in Tunierform statt wo sich beide Brüder gegenseitig die Kauluken einschlagen. Passend dazu gibt es dann Sinneswandel und Erkenntnisse. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/24/24 Full Review Steve A classic from when I was a young grasshopper . Recently rewatched and still alright for a marital arts flick . The film was from 91 but the quality looks more like 1970s , besides that it was cool having a martial arts movie take place in Cali . Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/23/23 Full Review bill t Cheesy from the get go, this movie about two step brothers, their evil dad, their greasemonkey uncle, a slain crooked businessman, his daughter, her dog, and all their many many kung fu adventures certainly have crammed everything into this movie, with amazing results. This one is so bad, and so cheesy, so of course, so much fun to watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Good bad martial arts flick, only movie I know to feature Bolo Yeung in a dress. Non-stop fight scenes keep the awful acting to a minimal. Hilarious final scene at a kids martial arts tournament, where two teens beat each other nearly to death! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This flick blew my mind it is unreal. The Moore brothers return home from Nam with all limbs intact and an orphaned Vietbanese boy (they name him Charlie hahaha) , who grows up to be Data from The Goonies. It is worth watching for seeing Chong Li from Bloodsport in drag, plus the part where the Mammy's boy henchman breaks down is one of the funniest things, I have ever seen. The soundtrack is immense and Jerry Trimble's tan makes David Dickinson look like an Albino. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Bolo Yeung is in this, and its great...
