Tripla Ameaça

Like the title says, the director has too much martial arts star power and too little to do with all of it. First and foremost tiger chen , has a very generic fight style and it brought down the scenes he was in. Iko continually gets beat down but thanks to overused cliches the bad guys talk too much and he gets in his hits. Tony jaa even feela slightly wasted compared to the protector. The final fight feels meh, without spoiling too much, that fight should have went a little different, but the director played it like an old action movie with no twist or anything that suprised us. Summed up, considering the star power in the movie, it should have been better done. I'm a huge fan of most of the cast and this movie failed to showcase their skills or fighting styles. Watch once and done.

With a cast like this, I was expecting The Raid, Ong Bak, Boyka or The Night Comes for Us quality.

My advice is don't build your hopes up.

I can look past awful dialogue and ridiculous situations if the action is good but theres nowhere near enough to keep you distracted from what is, a bad movie.

I totally get people who are dissapointed in this. If you take the talent at hand, you'd imagine something more spectacular overall. And it's not just the very predictable story, I was expecting that. But cliches get boring fast and the fight scenes are good, but that is not enough to elevate it to a level that would make this a classic, which the cast would be deserving of.

Dialog is kind of wooden most of the time too (though there are some noteable and great exceptions, some may go over your head, since it is only 50 % in english, did not do a count, so that is estimate of course), so beware of that too. If you are just here for the action you will be mostly satisfied though, so I guess primary objective achieved

If I downloaded a movie from the Bahamas, does this make me a Pirate of the Caribbean? Because this pirate's film didn't have sub-titles for the non-English parts... aaaaaarrrrg!

I spent most of the film's running time hoping that these famous martial art pros get to work together again in a film worthy of their talents, instead of this ridiculous script that had more plot issues and was more predictable than a soft porn film. A 5th grader could've written a better story that made actual sense.

The fight choreography was excellent, especially towards the end, but also limited with the screenplay that needed work from its muddled narrative about criss-crossing allegiances, noble billionaires, shadowy criminal enterprises, and one guy out for vengeance that had dozens of opportunities from the get-go, but instead risked and/or allowed civilians to die before the obvious end result.

Don't see it for the plot, see it for the fight scenes... these guys all deserve a better story. It's a very generous 6/10 from me - solely for the all star cast and their multiple martial-arts discipline fight scenes.

If you're expecting an Oscar worthy movie,then you're in the wrong place. This movie include many great action star like Iko Uwais,Tiger Chen, Tony Jaa, Scott Adkins,and Michael Jai White which I think will be the main reason to watch this movie.

Plot writing for this movie might be a little bit weak for most of the part but you can't help yourself to enjoy the movie. The acting was good especially for Iko Uwais and Scott Adkins. The others is kinda... how I can say it? Cringe.

The action sequence was great and engaging. I mean if you're a fan of their movie, you'll definitely enjoy this movie action sequence.

Overall, it's a pretty enjoyable action for a VOD movie.
