Wow! What a totally funny movie. Two real twins, who are real martial artists, that can actually fight in real life, make a martial arts movie. Whodda thunk it? Yea the fight scenes could be better but they're not half bad, and all self choreographed on a total film budget less than one hours cost of a Hollywood effort.

Lots of sly humor...just between the lines sort of stuff too. Corn? Sure there's some corny, campy stuff too but ya' gotta love lines like this one "Confucius say...when fighting truckers...nail the suckers". Yea, that's what I'm talking about!!!!! After kicking the crap out some belligerent truckers of course. Rent it, buy it, borrow it whatever...you gotta see it at least once!

What fun. My Bad Movie group is constantly amazed when we can uncover a whole nother genre and/or filmmakers and the McNamara Twins are da bomb! Obviously very accomplished martial artists - they decided why not try and be action film stars as well - the heck with Van Damme or Chuck Norris. We're REAL identical twins! That's our gimmick, but sadly neither one of the twins can act. At ALL! One is dull and the other one is duller. Their mustaches give better performances than they do. We were howling at the horrible editing, terrible acting and cheesy dialogue. There'a great scene where one of the bad guys has once again snatched one of their girlfriends and is holding her around the neck. One of the twins has a crossbow and obviously if they really had a stunt coordinator, they could stage a scene where the arrow would take out the guy - just missing the girl by inches, but nope we cant possibly pull that off - so suddenly the bad guy lets go of the girls' neck with one hand and places it against a tree. Like - here - try and hit my flattened hand on this large tree - here's a target, Mr. Crossbow Hero - so the twin shoots his hand with an arrow - the bad guy pulls out the arrow and then....runs away. Yep. That's it. End of showdown. Plus the bad guy has a blond mohawk and always has a REAL short cigar in his mouth and his voice sounds like he's auditioning for Bluto in the Popeye cartoons. We loved this movie - for all the wrong/right reasons!!

This is only hilarious because of the insane cringe it illicits while watching. Acting has never been worse, it's somehow boring and terrible, mostly because the filmmakers are narcissists that grew up on Mars.

Holy crap! Let me rephrase that - holy holy crap crap! This action film is a vehicle for Irish kung fu twin brothers Michael and Martin McNamara, owners of the illustrious Twin Dragons Kung Fu schools in Canada. Here they stretch their acting abilities and star as Michael and Martin, owners of the illustrious Twin Dragons Kung Fu schools in Canada. They decide to go on a week vacation in the wilderness with their girlfriends but trouble starts immediately when they run afoul of a group of weekend warriors. The twins don't take kindly to the bad guys and, like the theme song by one Billy Butt states over and over, "We're gonna fight for the right to fight!" Running a scant 70 minutes, this is one of those rare films in the same league as classics like Hollywood COP, SAMURAI COP and THE CRIME KILLER. I knew I was in store for a good time when, in the opening fight scene, a criminal grabs a scrawny dog and yells, "Back off or I twist this mutt's neck!" Of course, the brothers are purveyors of good and save said dog (and the owner who is creepily stroked on the head by one of the twins). Michael and Martin look like a cross between Tom Selleck and Robert Carradine. They are actually pretty good martial artists but the film ruins any aspect of them looking good by using video slo-mo during 50% of the fight scenes. Nearly every line in the film is killer but my favorite is when the twins return to the cabin after their girls have been kidnapped and one yells, "Our poster is gone!" Yes, the adorn the walls of their cabin with posters of themselves. Highly recommended!

A couple of dudes that look like Oates from Hall and Oates are apparently the toughest men alive and love to kick people in the head when they're not looking. They face a militia in between the long stretches of chilling at the cottage. Terrible acting, slow mo fighting, and some far too many shots of nothing important slow this down, but it's frequently hilarious and worth watching.
