Honor

I don't understand what people expected. This isn't supposed to be a life changing experience like "Forest Gump" or a movie for the ages like "Casablanca". It's a fight movie. It's an action flick. Why do people think that movies need to be all artsy? You want to see blood, bruises, sweat, tears, pain, triumph and everything that comes with a good fight? Watch this movie. If you want to watch a movie where you can hold hands with your lady, this isn't the one for you.

What ever happened to being excited about a good ol' testosterone driven film where you know you're going to see some ass kicking? I expected to see some great fights and this film did ten times that. Every scene brought something different to the table. I wanted to check out K1 champ Remy Bonjansky and see Roddy Piper kick some ass. Mission accomplished.

There was not one single redeeming factor in this movie. The girlfriend and I both love action films. Especially fight scenes (Bloodsport and Kickboxer was awesome), but this movie was not entertaining. Five minutes of action followed twenty minutes of talking and "angry" facial expressions. The main hero is a troubled character who has seen battle and thus is forced to look seriously constipated at all times. The Army has disrupted his bowel movements on top of perfecting his fighting technique. The music isn't good either. They fight to the rap and hip-hop style of the streets, 'cause these guys are thugs. The rest of the soundtrack is the usual background noise to low-budget dramas.

Everything about this movie is classic B-style. The actors deliver their lines as if reading them from cue cards and the lines themselves should be set on fire and left burning in some rotten Hollywood alleyway. The film is called "Honor," but there was no honor in making this film. It was simply a waste of money, and spending wisely is something I consider to be honorable.

Go see Felon instead. The fight scenes and situations are more real.

1. A movie with action, a story line and a moral.

2. Good casting and character blend.

3. Photography was great.

4. Story style clean, simple and not tangled or hard to follow.

5. Characters were believable.

6. Liked the scene switches.

7. Had more of a story than a lot of these genre movies.

8. Action scenes good.

9. Just enjoyable along with action...wasn't nerve racking 10. the music didn't over play the voices like so many movies... often times background music isn't background at all.

I lasted forty-five minutes. Some reviewers said the fights were bad. They weren't THAT bad. Some reviewers said the fights were good. They weren't very good. It was maudlin, predictable, sluggish, and embarrassing to watch. Seen on Tubi, the live streaming site, which is getting worse and worse. But it does have live TV, if you still value TV for any reason.

Wow, first thing i would say is i never would think Gabriel's actor didn't get any martial arts training. He seem pretty good at it. Of course i wish i could have seen more of him, he didn't fight so much but what he did was pretty good and didn't seem like a guy with no training at in MA at all. I really like the cook too, didn't known him but he have pretty good skill in MA. As for the story, it got to me in many ways, as Gabriel wanna do whats right but at the same time dosen't want to do bad things do a guy he consider as a friend. But i got to say just like him i would have do the same choice, the character really got to me for that, cause for me the pattern is Honor, Loyalty and respect in that way, honor will always go before loyalty and loyalty will always go before respect. And i think Ray got it the wrong way as for him Respect was the first thing he wanted and owning the streets by any mean meant respect for him. I knew when i brought this that the director of Kickboxer(one of the great fighting movie) and Bloodsport(one of my favourite fighting movie) would deliver, but i didn't tough it would one i would freaking love a lot. Glad to have buy it and i got it for like 7 bucks, a ridiculous price considering its so good. One funny fact, its like in this movie you see WWE/F wrestler are way more actors than wrestling, as Roddy Piper was very believable and did a pretty good job, but as a wrestler he was awful in most of his matches...lol. Overall i am really happy to see this movie got good review here, which is rare for a martial arts movie. Of course there is always gonna be haters... but well you have to deal with them. And just for fun... the character on the cover is a no name doing the intro fight... I'm kind of curious why they didn't put a real character... you expect this guy to be the lead but he is really not.
