Anton Bitel Little White Lies a paradoxical play on realism, as the closer this intense action star comes to the rôles he typically plays, the more absurdly postmodern the exercise becomes, with an array of cartoonish villains and impossible fights... Mar 13, 2024 Full Review Ayla Ruby Loud and Clear Reviews In meta action film One Percent Warrior, choreographed by the legendary Kensuke Sonomura, Tak Sakaguchi is an action star making a movie that lets him test skills for real. Rated: 4/5 Oct 20, 2024 Full Review Sean Chandler Sean Chandler Talks About A thrilling martial arts film with a distinct style to the choreography. It also provides a fun twist to the "Die Hard on a..." template. Rated: B Apr 8, 2024 Full Review Daniel Eagan Film Legacy One well-staged encounter with Jeet Kune Do master Ishii Togo builds considerable suspense, but it’s surrounded by poor, melodramatic plot twists and tricks. Mar 19, 2024 Full Review Christian Valentin Spectrum Culture An often messy and very meta bone-snapper from established veterans, One-Percent Warrior has lightning-fast moves but a thin story. Mar 13, 2024 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed One-Percent Warrior is an entertaining film and has some fantastic fight sequences. The story is uneven and so are the cinematography and editing. The film may have a better appeal to fans of Tak Sakaguchi... Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 12, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Darren D One-Percenter most interesting aspect is the premise, a fading action star with an obsession with realism for on screen action. The trouble is, it takes too long to get going because it spends far too much time hyping up the protagonist in such a way which removes any excitement & adds repetitiveness during some of the action sequences. Now there are some good moments regarding the action unlike couple of sequences felt like it's trying too hard to be eye catching & the repetitive score kind of get overbearing which isn't helped by an ending just feels like it was thrown in from out of nowhere because they wanted to aim high for something meaningful. Ultimately, it's fine, but could've been so much better if it focused more on the premise. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/18/24 Full Review Madadh S The professional reviews are absurd. This movie appears to have been shot on a budget of about $3.50 USD and the choreography is outright trash. I can't stress that enough, the fight scenes are pure, unadulterated stupidity, to the point of being goofy. The actual "action sequences" themselves are very poorly shot and even more poorly acted; don't even get me started on the voice acting for the American dub. I sincerely regret wasting $5 USD on unentertaining garbage like this, especially during a soft recession. Don't bother, watch any of Tak's other movies instead. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/13/24 Full Review Read all reviews
