Advantages: Inspirational- easy watching Disadvantages: cheesy- simple plot- but effective
Well where do I start with this film? This is one of those inspirational films like Karate kid that makes you want to get off the sofa and take up kickboxing or other martial arts or learn the splits.
This film has a real basic but predictable story line - without ruining it too much you can guess the ending within the first ten minutes. The plot wait for it, if you don't want to see stop reading now; Is revenge- Vamme Dam's (Kurt Sloanne) brother ...

Go on my son! Review ofKickboxer (Wide Screen)by

Advantages: Good fighting scenes Disadvantages: Predictable story
What can I say about this film? Its an absolute Van Damme classic!
Van Damme plays a brother out for revenge against the crazy fighter who crippled his brother.
This film will never win any Oscars. The storyline is fairly predictable (as with many Van Damme films, but that’s not why we love them. Van Damme’s opponent is actually more amusing than scary looking (not that I d want to meet him in the ring) but they do put on a good fight ...

Advantages: Good fighting / training scenes Disadvantages: Predictable storyline, cheesy in parts
JCVD films are one of those things that you either love or hate. This is one of Van Damme's earlier films and arguably one of the most memorable. Beautifully shot, with a decent storyline (he gets revenge for his brother who has been crippled by the local kick boxing champion, of course) - but that's not the reason Van Damme fans watch his movies. It's the fighting and the training scenes, and this film's got them in abundance. Great stuff.

Really enjoyable film. One to definately see if you are a fan of Jaun Claude Van Damme. Admittedly parts of the film are cheesy but it is still worth watching non-the-less.

Advantages: Great Film Disadvantages: lack of extra's
One of my favourite films of all time. Beautiful setting, great music, and also some deep themes, storyline wise, i dont want to ruin it for you, but the story line is that jean claude van damme's brother takes part in a kickboxing match in bancox and gets beaten up so badly, he may never be able to walk again. Van Damme seeks revenge and puts everything on the line. This film has action, romance, deep and spiritual music and also chessy music (when ...
