I think that these three films are three of the strongest martial arts films made, they all have different elements of quality to them.
Each film is in my opinion the best film of the actors involved. Enter the dragon is the oldest film and it does show, however it is in my own 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.
