Ferrigno hulks about
Prismark103 September 2018
On the plus side this low budget action film has some location shooting in San Francisco.

However this is a movie that looks cheap and amateurish, some of the editing looked really basic.

This is a showcase for martial arts star Ian Lauer who looks a bit like a younger Hugh Jackman. We see him workout in this film and show off his muscles. However he is not very charismatic onscreen being easily upstaged by the actor who plays his foster brother.

The story of a MMA fighter Jake Bolt who goes on the run after refusing to throw a fight is humdrum. The scene where some goons go around San Francisco stopping random strangers and showing them a picture of Bolt is laughably bad. The fight scenes are functional and nothing elaborate.

So bad that it's horrible

When I was 12 I used to love movies like this. As a matter of fact, my passion for these led me to discover the real martial arts. This movie is so reminiscient of God-awful '80s martial arts movies that I couldn't help but watch it.

nobody come back, nobody can fight, and nobody can write a plot. That's exactly the movies I was obsessed with when I was a kid. Let's just call it a walk down memory lane.

I would warn about spoilers, but this movie can't contain spoilers. It doesn't have a plot to spoil.

Kinda works as a G rated onlyfans for Ian Lauer...but otherwise...no.

Shirtless Ian looks pretty good here, but not great. Other than that, really not much to see. A retread of 80's forced-to-fight or forced-to-take-a-dive actioners, but with no natural market for those anymore, has no home. There is little to love here.

Very good movie
mariafannyfanny2 August 2018
The movie was very good and had a great story plot which made this movie a whole lot entertaining. Made a good reference to martial arts throughout the movie.

What we've been waiting for!

This is the action film that the indie scene needed. Great bay area locations, fast cars, great kung fu. Stellar performances from some of the greats like Mike Placencia, Marcus Spencer, and the beautiful Teresa Navaro. Hope to see more films like this soon!

Solid story, compelling visuals and great action scenes. Ian Lauer shines and delivers a strong perfomance as usual.
