Avengement

Scott Adkins is the absolute best of the DTV action genre stars, he puts out extremely violent & bone-crunching action Thriller's that often feel like the old skool raw action films of the past such as the types of flicks Van Damme & Steven Seagal would've made back in like 1991 or something. Adkins is the New Van Damme of today, i don't know why he isn't a huge action star? I mean he should be as big a star as Jason Statham but for some reason isn't there? There's definitely something old skool about Adkins & i love it, he's the greatest fighter out there in films today & nearly every film I've seen him in he's Awesome!!!

I absolutely love his Ninja films & his Debt Collector films & many more, he's genuinely a good actor & an incredible fighter on screen & has a Cool charm.

Here in this Very violent & gritty British Thriller our Adkins plays Cain, a guy who is down on his luck & gets mixed up with his older Gangsta brother that gets him put in the toughest prison in England & here he becomes a warrior as he is hunted every day by other Criminals who want him dead & we get some outstanding fight scenes that are truly savage & extremely brutal & Adkins is superb as he becomes a hardened warrior.

This is a revenge Thriller & once Cain escapes his prison life he sets out on a violent quest of revenge against the one's who set him up & put a price on his head in prison, his own big brother!!! Adkins basically becomes The Punisher & it's Awesome!!! Adkins really gives it his all here with his extraordinary performance & shows he's as good as any of the other big British actors such as Tom Hardy & Jason Statham. The fights are Amazing to watch & full of blood splatter & broken bones, Adkins is a killing machine here but it's his situation that made him that way & we root for him to kill them all. This has some of the greatest fight sequences I've seen in a long time & especially for a DTV film, they're Amazing.

Scott Adkins makes quality films & puts his everything into them so it doesn't matter at all that alot of his films are "Cheap" low-budget flicks because he makes better stuff more often than what's at the cinema with mega-budgets!!!

I so wish someone would cast him in a new Punisher movie as he's perfect.

Avengement is a quality revenge Thriller that's full of violent action & some very funny humour scattered throughout & a great performance from the underrated Adkins.

The greatest Bar Fight ever is featured in this kick-ass brutal Action crime drama.

Avengement: Not horror as such but certainly horrific. Cain (Scott Adkins) feels that he has been betrayed/abandoned by his crime boss brother after he is imprisoned. On compassionate release he beats up his guards and escapes. He holds his brothers gang at'gunpoint in a pub and the back story unfolds. A truly savage tale, non-stop fights and attacks in prison leave Cain scarred mentally and physically but he's a MMA and survives but continuously has his sentence extended. The prison violence is the least of the horrors in this film though as hands are chopped off with an axe and a foot shot off etc. Not for the squeamish or faint of heart. A crime/revenge story with some intriguing twists written and Directed by Jesse V. Johnson. 7/10. On Netflix.

A better than average fight movie. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it has a decent story and is played out nicely being interspersed by brutal but realistic fight scenes. The tension is kept up by some good storytelling without you having to think too hard. Definitely worth a watch and will have me curious to see if Mr. Adkins and co can reproduce it again, maybe next time with a few more twists.

Talk about a great action movie.. This one is just awesome. Scott Adkins was amazing.. I want to see him taken on more bad ass person action role. The story is new.. not predictable so very much likable

I look forward to every Scott Adkins movie, I grew up watching anything that had Van Damme's name attached to it. Adkins is today's Van Damme! His movies are pure entertainment and everything I love about action films. Avengement is another win for him. It wastes no time getting down to the action and the story had me totally hooked in his transformation from regular guy to a man with nothing to lose out for revenge. The fighting choreography in the film is not the same style as in undisputed, triple threat etc. it's quick, brutal and a damn good time.
