kickboxing films to be based on a true story. The Muscles from Brussels plays Frank Dux, the first Westerner ever to win the extreme "whupfest" known as the Kumatai (a long-running, no-holds-barred fighting tournament in Hong Kong). While a bit deficient in the script department (to say the least), this undeniably exciting flick succeeds by letting Van Damme play to his strengths: namely, minimal acting and a lot of impossibly acrobatic splits while kicking people in the head.Bloodsportis a guilty-pleasure testosterone blast of the highest order, with a memorable villain (the massive Bolo Yeung fromEnter the Dragon) and a multitude of well-choreographed fight scenes. An embarrassed-looking Forest Whitaker cameos as a hapless (and non-kickboxing) cop.--Andrew Wright

...opinion the best of three, bloodsport has Van Damme at his best and for me was a truly enjoyable watch, more violent and realistic than Enter the Dragon but for me not quite as good. Showdown in Little Tokyo is also a strong film with more realism than Enter The Dragon but the martial arts skill is not even close.
As a whole the three films are very watchable time and time again and make an essential part of a martial art fans collection. ... more

Review of Bloodsport / Enter The Dragon / Showdown In Little Tokyo (Uncut) (DVD)
In 'Bloodsport' we hear about the attempts of Ninja star Frank Dux who wants to be the first Westerner to win the Kumite - a martial arts contest that pushes all participants to the end. 'Enter The Dragon' is the first Kung-Fu film from Hollywood. A martial arts expert is required by British Intelligence to counter a smuggling gang. In 'Showdown In Little Tokyo' we find that Los Angeles has become a nightmare of murder and corruption and the police seem powerless to stop it. A martial arts expert and his partner join together to take on the big crimelord.
