Die Fighting

The fighting alone makes it worth the 6/10. The acting was hard to watch.. The story was nothing worse than what you'd find in other martial arts movies like Ong Bak, etc.

The movie has A LOT of fighting in it, and thankfully you don't have to sit through to much of the painful acting. The majority of the fights are really well done (especially those with the lead actor).

The fighters themselves can seriously fight. They have technique and speed that I've seen from more famous actor/fighters (Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais). The lead actor is especially fun to watch. If you're a martial arts fanatic like myself, you'll really appreciate the skill that he has. It's a shame these guys don't have a bigger budget to work with or may never getting the fame and reputation of guys like Tony Jaa but I truly believe they have the same level of skill as the famous guys.

I really hope to see more of these guys in more professional shot/ editing movies.

For all the direct to DVD action movies that usually hit the bargain bin their are a few hidden gems among them. Die Fighting would definitely rank up their as one of the better titles that are a part of the genre. Fabien Garcia is definitely a name to look out for in the future for the genre. The movie provides on a wall-to-wall succession of impressively shot and choreographed fight sequences that are sure to provide thrills. Of course the acting may not be the greatest, but the main actors do perform their own stunts and combat sequences which surely earn them respect for action fans. The story may remind you of another solid martial arts action movie BKO: Bangkok Knockout, but they do add a twist in their to make it more unique and fact that the story and characters pretty much mirror the real life of the actors makes it more interesting to watch. Overall, a must watch for fans of movies like Undisputed II and III, Ninja II and other Direct to DVD/video action titles. If your one of those guys who enjoys these types of films, than sit back and enjoy the action and don't think too much.

6/10

I'm a big fan of martial arts movies and i think nowadays it's quite difficult to find a movie with legible fight scenes and an interesting scenario that make you watch the whole movie. Die Fighting is one of those that keep you on your seat until the end cause it's not only about the martial arts but also about something real,human,that could have happen, not some vendetta crap like we often see those days. I think the idea of the plot was quite imaginative and genuine. About the martial arts,the choreography was amazing,Wushu style(Chinese martial arts)the directing was great with actual shots where you can see the actors are real martial artists,(like The Raid)i think this movie was made with brio

Worth the watch! This movie is action packed with crazy awesome fighting throughout the whole movie and the fights just kept just getting more and more intense! It's absolutely worth checking out because you won't see fight scenes like these everyday. For a low budget movie they did a great job with all the action and the fight choreography was new and refreshing compared to other movies. Anyone who says "bad fighting" is crazy because the fighting was absolutely amazing and these martial artists are extremely skilled at what they do. Most Hollywood movies these days are all wires and CG and stunt doubles - so it's been awhile since I've seen fighting like this. I hope these guys keep making more movies because I look forward to watching them!

I wouldn't get near giving this a 10 .. but i also wouldn't call it the worst Martial Arts movie that i have ever seen (and I've seen a bunch). Since the main listed actor did the directing etc too, I'm guessing this was a project of passion, but the dude sure has a mean kick.

Low budget obviously, and a pretty weak plot and average acting, but still worth a watch for the fight Choreography. I didn't think that i would make it thru the whole movie but i did .

Filmed with multiple cameras, most simulating some kind of CCTV cameras which is an interesting choice.. seems to work with the plot.

So yeah .. worth at least one watch, but don't look for many Oscars in its future.

EDIT: When i wrote this i wasn't quite finished with the movie.. now that i am .. the ending actually caught me off guard.. it was very well done.
