Combat sans merci

I watch this movie every weekend because of the sheer humorous acting and the brutal fighting. the fighting is alot better than most recent movies...but, story cannot play out correctly due to really bad acting. I bought this movie is cheap and it's possibly the greatest 5 bucks I've ever spent. There are some scenes where I'll just break out and laugh at because Data from "The Goonies" (Jonathon ke quan) beats the tar out of a 300 lb muscle man. If's you find this movie,by all means buy it. It's one of the funniest movies i've ever seen...sadly, it isn't supposed to be.

This film is pure genius. What more could you possibly say about a movie that offers not only Bolo Yeung in drag, but also a break dancing fight sequence and martial arts fighting dwarfs? "Breathing Fire" is possibly the funniest martial arts film of all time, I really can not recommend it highly enough.

The film's storyline is largely irrelevant but goes something like this: Annie comes to David for help when her parents are murdered. David then takes Annie to stay with his brother and his two sons, Charlie and Tony. When David suffers an injury, he instructs Charlie and Tony in his unique martial arts style so that they can protect Annie from her parents' murderers.

The plot truly is thinner than Nicole Ritchie, but this only adds to the enjoyment. By far the most entertaining aspect of the film is the padding between the set pieces. Some of my favourite moments include a Karate Kid inspired training montage, complete with bowling balls and suspended watermelons. I also loved the ridiculous flashback to Vietnam (in which the main characters look exactly the same as they do 15 or so years later!) and I almost wet myself when Mickey started to break dance - while painting a wall.

Bolo Yeung fans can not afford to miss the opportunity to see their hero kick ass while robbing a bank - in drag. Unfortunately for Bolo, he doesn't have a huge role and has to suffer the indignity of being beaten up by the 100 pound kid from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Nevertheless, the chance to see Bolo wearing a floral dress more than compensates. The fight scenes that don't include Bolo are also memorable. Mickey, the break dancer, positively steals the show by demonstrating his dancing martial arts skills in rhinestone covered leather (no less). The fight involving the kick ass dwarfs is also one of the more memorable that I've seen in a long time.

The acting is appalling to the extent that it defies belief and the dialogue makes Showgirls look like All About Eve. And yet, I can't think of a better way to waste 75 minutes of your time than watching this marvellous piece of crap. Highly recommended!

I bought this movie for $5 on DVD at K-mart and it's possibly the greatest 5 bucks I've ever spent. There are some scenes where I'll just break out and laugh at because Data from "The Goonies" (Jonathon ke quan) beats the tar out of a 300 lb muscle man. If's you find this movie,by all means buy it.

This is supposed to be a martial arts movie,but the story and fighting scenes are so bad that it just gets boring. I picked this movie up for one reason,because Bolo Yeung was in it,but it turned out that he didnt have any real fighting scenes in it,so all i can say is that this is a piece of crap. Extremely bad story and acting and the fight scenes is not more than a Karate kid look a like.

(1991) Breathing Fire MARTIAL ARTS ACTION

Do you remember that little Chinese kid in "Indiana Jones and the Temple Of Doom" Indy adopt as Short Round! Well, he's older now and one of the two stars in this low budget entertaining martial arts movie. This pass is not for the story line and the acting, since it's mediocre as ever, but for the well choreographed fights which one of the problems with many martial art films is that they look too fake, since upon fighting no one hardly touches with one another. In this one we get to see what some of these characters can do which is obviously too far fetch in real life, but at last it's full contact and without the use of any CGI or wiring.
