Especially nunchuks (even if they are made out of sausage like in Ninja Turtles 2).

It might even be my favourite in the franchise. I didn't think Kickboxer 5 was bad, just different. Kickboxer 4 is one of the few movies to have been rejected (banned) by the BBFC in the UK due to violence.Roger Renmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32065576.post-48413377382975464892014-02-08T07:55:02.991-05:002014-02-08T07:55:02.991-05:00Thanks.

I remember watching it a long time ago and thought it was pretty bad too. Poor Dacascos. He was great in Drive and Sabotage.

But this is pretty solid B.movie hijinks. With a lot of unintentional laughs, the make up job as well as one of the most hilarious sex scenes ever. I forgot about Tong Po being a record producer, but being a drug lord was more than enough for me. The fights are pretty decent, although the ending is woefully anti-climatic. All in all, Kickboxer series was pretty fun. <br /><br />Actually, the last one is the only one I didn't enjoy on at least a goofy level. It lacks the greatness of part 1 (Kickboxer 1 is the best one, gotta disagree with you on 3 being better than 1) However part 5 lacks the Shaw Brothers feel of the first one, lacks the cast and Raging Bull style of #2, lacks the ambition and novelty of the bad guy training the hero and lacks 4's goofiness. Indeed, to make matters worse 5 is the only one that has boring fight scenes, and with Mark Dacascos in the movie there's just no excuse at all. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
