Bloodsport: The Dark Kumite

I have to be totally honest with you people about this one. This is a movie that everyone should avoid at all costs. It didn't seem possible that the Bloodsport-series could get as low as this, but it did. First of all: The acting has to be the worst I've ever seen. I can't believe that it's possible to act as bad as some of the people in this movie do. The two villain's are especially bad. The movie has a really dark feel to it, and I didn't like that at all. It's filmed in Bulgaria. I guess that was the only thing they could afford, but it looks really, really bad. Good fighting scenes sometimes save a really bad movie, but that doesn't happen here at all. The fighting scenes are in fact really bad, and they're a big waste of Bernhardt's great potential. Oh, did I forget to mention that the plot sucks big time? A VERY, VERY BAD movie indeed.

the plot sucked..... it was so simple and rediculous, that who ever wrote it must have stolen it from 3rd grader... i've seen better acting a k-mart commercial.. the fighting scenes were ok....and i stress the word OK because you could easily tell that no contact was made on any kick or punch... i can't believe anyone could have gotten funding for this film. its watching garbage like this that makes me believe i could take a dump, slap the words bloodsport 5 on in and get a budget for another sequel starring Daniel Bernhardt with yet another name and stefanos blah blah whatever as Stavros for the 1000th time.... If you decide to watch this piece of trash, i feel sorry for you, please don't waste 90 minutes of your life like i did.

OK let me start off by saying I have seen the first 3 Blood Sports when I was young..... Number 1 and 2 were both really good, 3 was average but definitely took a step down from the previous 2. I heard how poor the 4th was, but I recently ordered a 4 combo pack movie just to get Kick Boxer. However low and behold Bloodsport 4 happened to be in that combo. I watched it for the first time a couple nights ago, and it was.... just..... strange..... I really don't know what els to say about it? Why did they have Daniel Bernhardt in it and playing a different character then the previous 2? None the less there is a Kumite in it, however I think it lasts for about 5 mins at most. The movie was just dull and boring. Nothing much els can be said about it. The acting was extremely terrible.... And there seemed to just be some really strange scenes that didn't belong in this movie. Basically to sum this piece of garbage up.... Don't waste your time with it.

P.s As for the Action (what very very very very very little there was) Actually wasn't terrible. The first fight of the movie Bernhardt is battling with another guy in some type of competition was kind of sweet. However not even the handful of action that is in it could save this trash. No wonder this movie is so hard to find. Movie stores are embarrassed to have it in stock.

Wow. How did this get made? What rich boy had enough of his own money to make a movie? I love the script and plot. Oh, dont forget the dry fight choro. This movie is made of 35mm stock and human feces. The strange part is, every time its on i have to watch it. Its kinda like a bad car accident; You dont want to look but you just have to keep peeking up. I like the recycled gun shoot out shots too. This is a great movie to get a bunch of friends to see with you, so you can just run it into the ground.

If the franchise is to survive than it is imperative that the producers stick to the original idea. #4 is not related to the prior entries other than the fact that this stars Daniel Bernhardt. In the two prior entries, Bernhardt played Alex Cardo, an art dealer who learns the way of the Kumite to better himself. #4 finds him playing a new character, John Keller, a cop who participates in illegal street fights. When inmates start turning up missing at a local prison, Keller is asked to cover undercover to find out what is going on. Once in, he finds out that he has been targeted by the crazed Caesar to participate in a mysterious Kumite event. This film draws parallels to JCVD "Death Warrant" but the script and direction need work. Bloodsport 4 is watchable, thanks mainly to Bernhardt's screen presence.
