Eliminators

Adkins would have been great late 80 early 90 when all the martial arts B movie where poring out like crazy after the success of bloodsport, and Jean Claude Van damme and Nico where a slim Steven Siegal showed us some new fighting moves.

But lets face it this poor scenario has been played to death by Billy Blanks, Gary Daniels, Don Wilson, and so on back in the days, this is 2017 and i guess that people have seen enough of the tournament fighting crap, or the bad martial arts plot.

Its really sad because Adkins as replace all those awful bad actors in is b movie direct to video, except for small parts in big feature film where he has so much makeup you don't recognize him he will never leave the direct to video movie land.

Poor Scott is 25y to late.

Everything you could want in an Adkins movie! Memorable fight and action sequences. Wade Barrett aka Stu Bennet makes a pretty menacing, serviceable villain. One that should have propelled Adkins into even bigger stardom.

Apparently defending one's self and family from three armed intruders breaking into one's home attempting to kill you and and your family in the UK is not the same as in the USA.

At first I did not expect much from Eliminators. But As a fan of Scott Adkins brand of action, I'd say it ranks as one of his better films. This isn't the thinking man's type but more of a simple, straight forward, one man army 80/90s action movie . For that much it is entertaining and somewhat of a hidden gem. Adkins proves he is a solid yet underrated action star by providing some kick ass and innovative fights with some cool locations for it to take place in. Unlike most bland, low budget action films shot in eastern Europe this was actually shot in London which added to the movie. Sure, acting may not be a strength of the movie and the story may not be the most original but it is leaps and bounds better than other low budget DTV films like the crap washed up action stars like Seagal churn out every few months . Overall, Eliminators is a fairly decent entry into the sub-genre of the direct to DVD/VOD action movies. Adkins brings the goods and racks up a healthy body count and one of the better movies made by WWE studios.

7/10.

If you like action-packed fast-paced films starring Scott Adkins and Stu Bennett, then this film is for you. Eliminators (2016) is a generic action flick with an OK plot.

Former US federal agent Thomas and professional hitman Bishop are your main macho-man. They sweat testhosterone and are black belts on every other martial arts.

Recommendable for action lovers. You can watch it without much thought to details as this film is as mind-numbing as it can get.
