Calvin O Aug 10 Not sure why this is so highly rated. There aren't very many fight scenes, and those that we do have are either a bunch of super close shaky camera angles so you can't see anything, or a bunch of ground wrestling. Not much by way of interesting action to be found. The story is really ho hum, which is fine when you've got a ton of wicked awesome fight sequences, but this lacked those entirely. There is some nice parkour i guess. See more Leprechaun K @LeprechaunKing Feb 26 Great fight scenes. See more Liam D @Mediawatcher2003 Feb 13 A very standard Donnie Yen film. Very solid action sequences but not much story or acting See more Kevin C Jan 26 You will love this movie if you are a fan of Mixed Martial Art! This movie is a perfect showcase of how's MMA fight could be like in a street fight. Flying arm bar, triangle, gi-fight(jacket), proper striking, more and more. This movie is not a Jackie Chan movie(come on Western people leave us alone, we have different kinds of movie) Forget about the story. Perhaps it is the best MMA fighting movie.

The third collaboration between star, Donnie Yen, and director, Wilson Yip, the film does admittedly suffer from its uneven pacing, extremely noticeable anachronisms and clichéd plot we've already seen a thousand times. Yet this stripped-down unpretentious actioneer essentially amounts to an 87-minute freight train of Donnie Yen badassery and effortless awesomeness, even if the film can't decide if Yen or Louis Koo is the main hero. The final fight is the stuff of legends, and rightly so; pitting Yen against the equally legendary Collin Chou, it's one of high-impact bone trauma that you owe yourself not to miss. Yen's choreography is exceptional, Yip's direction is superb with some fluid camerawork and the score by Kwong Wing Chan positively pulse-pounding. For all its faults, Flash Point more than delivers where it matters. See more jeremy z 10/01/2021 A largely incoherent plot with some cookie cutter police narrative, all the action that isn't Donnie Yen showing off his mma skills are all lame. lame shootouts and lame car chases, with some particularly cringeworthy wirework. But, that one fight at the end. *chef's kiss* See more Read all reviews
