Triple Threat

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.

I thought it could be the best film but it's not dumbest story ever. Ruined all incredible casts.

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

I think this could have been a really good movie. I will the story did not cut in well. I must say if you are an action movie fan this is okay to watch. It does have good punch of action.

Triple Threat features some of the greatest martial arts actors of the past and present decade like Tony Jaa, Scott Adkins, Iko Uwais, and Michael Jai White. All of them showcasing their trademark martial arts skills on the big screen.

Unfortunately, this movie doesn't live up to it's ensemble hype. There was a lack of character development, the plot was paper-thin and inconsequential, and the chemistry of the three main leads was tenuous, although that's probably due to the language barrier and cultural differences between them. Tony Jaa, Tiger Hu Chen, and Iko Uwais are at their best when they're doing films for their respective national markets.
