This is another one of those straight to video Thrillers & it's very good & alot of FUN!!! Some cool Action scenes & a cool urban setting with gangs everywhere & a good hero to root for in the very cool JEFF SPEAKMAN. Haven't seen really any of his movies but he is very good here i mean he's no van damme but he is cool in this film & it is a 90s Action Thriller & makes for a nice late night movie
Sloppily edited action flick starring Jeff Speakman as a former cop who gets enmeshed in a nefarious plot to escalate gang violence in L.a. by a group of mercenaries who met in prison. Not nearly enough action, although the big battle at the end helps a bit. Too often, it's just people standing around spouting clichéd lines. Speakman is the only reason to see it. His best film remains "The Perfect Weapon." This one is under-budgeted and not well written. Final effort by Cannon Films, which also featured Chuck Norris in a number of his action films. Instead of the usual car chase in this one, we get Speakman riding a horse, pursued by some bad guys in an SUV. It wasn't much of a chase, but it was different.
After "The Perfect Weapon", I just couldn't allow that this movie run away from me. And I really think that Jeff Speakman nails it again. With this film, he confirmed his low budget martial arts star status. Now, this is one of those good old low budget action films from the early 90s. Just turn off your brain and enjoy it, if you are a martial arts movies fan, you'll really enjoy it, and if you are a Kenpo practitioner, you'll enjoy it even more. Jeff Speakman is a master in Kenpo and Goju-Ryu karate, but primarily Kenpo, and he is presenting this martial art style in his films, just like Bruce Lee did with Jeet Kune Do, Chuck Norris with Tae Kwon Do, Jet Li with Wushu and Steven Seagal with Aikido. I think that Jeff deserves his place besides these great martial arts stars.
The story is one of those the usual Jeff plays Jake Barrett a former cop, now car mechanic, who quit the force because he filled guilty for the innocent victim's death. As I said usual type of story, he is a "perfect weapon", "one man army" and "a tough guy" but, he don't want to fight no more, because someone will push him later on you know, that type of story. Jeff tried to do as much as he can with his acting, don't expect much acting in these kind of films, but besides him, and I think he steal the show Christopher Neame, a good British actor, but in US, he constantly plays imposing villains, the good things is that he does it great. Neame was OK. We got a leading lady, Jennifer Gatti, a very lovely young actress, but not great acting. We also have talents as Bernie Cassey and Ramon Franco. The action is good, fighting scenes are great, which makes it a good film to watch. I recommend it.

this second film starring Jeff Speakman does not live up to the first one,The Perfect Weapon,at least in terms of action,or story for that matter.i found it kinda boring.the martial arts sequences aren't as spectacular here.at least they they don't seem to be to me.there are no funny one liners here that i can recall,which The Perfect Weapon had.it's a pretty generic film,if you ask me.really,in my opinion this movie is no better than average for the genre.i wouldn't recommend it unless you really have nothing else to do.just be prepared to twiddle your thumbs.for me,the absolute most i can muster for Street Knight is a 5/10
Jeff Speakman stars as Jake an ex-cop who is still reeling from the death of a hostage, who he feels responsible for, however he finds a chance for redemption when a group of cops try to provoke a gang war so they can take over the streets in this overall boring actioner. Jeff Speakman may have some good moves but this and his other clunker (The Perfect Weapon) fail to impress. Street Knight is an overall loser, well worth avoiding.
