Audience Member This is a great 🧀 martial arts/western film. You're not supposed to take it seriously and the cast is pretty solid. The fights scenes don't hold up well but it's still fairly enjoyable. I think a remake would be terrific. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/09/21 Full Review Audience Member A very great movie. The best movie with Olivier Gruner. The second best movie from Isaac Florentine. All the fighting scene's in Savate (The Fighter) are very great. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member The original concept has a lot of potential but the film ends up very flat. A lot of people are to blame. The scriptwriter first who can not find anything else than organising a vale tudo tournament in the far west (isn't there smarter ways to set up martial fights??). The casting director second. Ian Ziering as a farmer? Ashley Laurence as a conservative country girl?? Marc Singer (in full over acting mode) as a powerfull german fighter??? And finally, Isaac Florentine who imitate the JCVD style of action for the usual lackluster result. I would like to see him get back at the subject now he masters action much better. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member decent movie, bout a french savate fighter fighting in old west Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Before you ask, yes, the movie does have fighting scenes with Savate Aka French Kickboxing. The plot here is quite simple and the actors ain't so good either. Frankly, I would rather watch grass growing than see Olivier Gruner acting. The fighting scenes are quite good though, might be the best thing in this movie. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Gruner is everything Jean-Claude Van Damme pretends to be, including an actor. Sort of.
