It's also quite possible that he lied about even fighting in the Kumite. He's kind of like Vanilla Ice in that respect. His street credit is based on bullshit. Still a fun movie though!

As an aside, remember the scene where Whitaker and the other FBI agent chase JCVD? My buddy and I were like "man, that looks like a Mentos commercial." Turns out someone made it into a Mentos commercial on YouTube:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_IAb_XmVa8Direct to Video Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310858965138247572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32065576.post-61645688885531742832011-10-08T09:09:43.396-04:002011-10-08T09:09:43.396-04:00My favorite non-action part is when the Asian in t...My favorite non-action part is when the Asian in the alley says "OK USA!!!"Tod Slaughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15573457351622447571noreply@blogger.com
