Dragon Fire

You will not 'find yourself' in this movie, but if you're looking for some good ass-whoopin's, this is a movie for you.

I wouldn't consider the acting in "Dragon Fire" wholly bad (except for Pamela Pond), either; the rest of the cast in this flick were fairly good-as far as martial arts movies go. The director could have had a little more vision, though: the fights were shot and choreographed very well, but the other parts of the movie lacked drama. I think that makes the acting look worse than it really is.

The plot is done-to-death, but it does have a twist at the end.

Again, if you are looking for an action drama the likes of "Saving Private Ryan," you will not enjoy this movie. But if you just want a kick-ass fighting movie for entertainment that you don't have to put a lot of thought into, check it out.

With so many real-life kickboxing champions in various categories listed on the cover of this film, I expected more - the fight scenes are only average (at least they saved the best one for last). Too many of them are what in pro wrestling is often called "squash matches" - one of the opponents dominates the other completely. The leading man can't act at all, but he does have some funny facial expressions; a few of the other fighters are fun in a comic-book way ("the Hulk"). The movie is pointlessly set in the future, which for the director apparently means that he has to shoot everything through a blue filter (or maybe my VHS copy was just bad). It also wants to be a whodunit, as we don't see the face of the man who kills the hero's brother in the beginning. However, you'll easily guess who it was halfway through. (**)

I just love those kickboxing movies of the 90s, and weirdly this one kinda slept under my radar until now. Its your typical revenge movie where a kickboxer goes underground to find the guy that murdered a relative. If the plot is very classic, yet this is the type i enjoy the most. Simple yet effective.

The acting is what you would expect from these kind of movie, ordinary at best to worst for some characters, but some fighters here have a strong presence or a comical relief i appreciated.

The action is very present, and this being a Tournament movie, you get a lot of fights. Most are long enough and brutal enough, but the movie loose some points from me for a couple of obvious shot where you see the move don't connect yet its as it did. There is not too much and its low budget so its OK.. let it pass.

Had a good time watching it, hope i will find more like these that i haven't watch yet, they are becoming hard to find.

This was such a dull movie, they shot it at night for 90% of it. Almost this blade runner like feel it seemed someone wanted. This whole futuristic approach was unnecessary. The story is dull and uninspired, the twists and ending you can see a mile away and that last fight in it it so boring and poorly choreographed.

There isn't a single actor in this that I'll remember. The casting of the lead and the guy who trains the lead actor were really poor choices. Most of the movie felt they were fighting in raves with strobe lights and there was way too many strip club like scenes to keep the 5 or so people who watched this interested. Even Steven Seagal would tell them to calm down.

Did this movie make money? I watched it for free and still feel ripped off.

This movie is, well, not bad. The only bad thing here is acting but if you're looking for good fighting scenes they have it here. The story is very common and is the same in other movies like bloodfist 1. If you're looking for cheap movies with brutal martial arts fighting it's all here.
