Bloodsport III

Swiss martial arts dude Daniel Bernhardt stands in again for Van Damme in this second sequel to "Bloodsport". Alex Cardo has retired from martial arts after winning the Kumite in the last flick, but rich heavy Jonathan Rhys-Davies wants him to compete in a new Kumite he's putting on. When our hero refuses, Davies kills his former teacher James Hong (who wisely appears to have agreed to be in this movie for less than 5 minutes). Cardo seeks out Pat Morita (also in this flick for mere minutes), who hooks Cardo up with his brother, who trains him, even though it is repeatedly stated that Cardo is the best martial artist in the world. He returns to take revenge on Davies by entering the Kumite ... which is actually what Davies wanted him to do in the first place. I confess to being confused at this point. Cardo "gets revenge" by winning the competition, which is what Davies wanted ... but now he doesn't???

Not interesting at all, plot is also bad. Bloodsport I was okay, II was kinda watchable, but III and IV are terrible! Poor acting, poor fighting scenes... This movie is one of those movies where you want to leave the cinema although you paid to watch it. Of course I didn't watch it in the cinema, but I was like "dear God, will it end already". You get bored watching it, you know the ending, there are no surprising parts, twists, nothing. I give it 5/10 while being very very generous! It's better than Bloodsport IV, but hey, that's not so hard since IV is one of the worst movies ever made! It would be better for director if he hadn't made sequels after first Bloodsport movie with van Damme. I'm really disappointed.

I saw Bloodsport, sadly one of Van Damme's best films, and could say it wasn't all that stupid. Number 2 was far more entertaining, mostly because they cast Daniel Bernhardt as the lead, (a basically taller, better acting, better looking and better fighting version of JCVD). Now comes lucky number 3. For the love of your sanity, don't see this movie! Don't touch this piece of maggot-infested crap! I lost an hour of my life that i'll never get back (thats how much of it I stomached before I tossed it out the window). If you feel the need to see a film that so bad that it actually entertains you, go see "Cool As Ice". Bloodsport 3, however, is not one of those films.

There isn't much to say about this film, except that slowly goes down... This is just one of those bad martial arts films... with classic story about Alex Cardo who's taking a revenge upon a rich mobster and his "monster" fighter called the Beast. Again with Daniel Bernhardt in leading role and his Van Damme face expressions. He travels on Thailand to another master to train him for next Kumite. But, this time... it IS personal! We get to see John Rhys Davies as the leading bad guy, the mobster, who is doing nothing but walking around with a large cigar in his mouth and look menacing, just like in "Cyborg Cop", James Hong and Pat Morita are there again... The fights are good, no complaints there... This is strictly for martial arts fans.

when i watched the first two bloodsport films i thought that they were pretty good (especially the first film). and then when they made a third one i immedietly rented it at the local movie store and was dissapointed in how stupid this film was. the action seens werent too bad, but the storyline was completely messed... if you ask me, there was no point in making this film. I rank it a *** out of **********.
