Following Dragon Wilson, whose film reviews I have already written several times, I decided to refresh my memory of the work of Gary Daniels. As a child, I often came across his films at our regional...
I very often hear a lot of pleasant and not so pleasant conversations about the Jackie Chan film - "ZODIAC MISSION". Everyone says different things. Sometimes it comes to heated discussions and even arguments. Alone...
One more review of Don “Dragon” Wilson’s action film, his first serious work in the hand-to-hand action genre, and the viewer will understand two things: that Wilson’s team loves to steal stories...
Before Showdown in Manila, I decided to go back a little to the good old past and refresh my memory of a number of films by the notorious Don “Dragon” Wilson. I’ll say right away that his films are etched in my memory...
What to expect: Once again for the billionth time, the main villain turns out to be the Russian mafia. Characters, including the main character, constantly grin stupidly or meaningfully. The carrier talks a lot. Phrase: “I come from a very...
“These are the miracles of transformation,” I thought after about half an hour of watching Isaac Florentine’s new film “Close Range” with Scott Adkins in the title role. This is still necessary...
It’s strange, but we still respond to the West, although it doesn’t ask us anything. Attempts to make a new Russian cinema according to the laws of Hollywood, according to the templates of American film drama...
Released in 2005, the film “SPL Stars of Destiny” starring Donnie Yen, Sammo Hungg and Simon Yam was an unconditional hit and one of the best works of this trio of actors....
Marko Zaror is one of my favorite on-screen fighters. Bright, cinematic, with refined technique, intelligent, calm and integral. At the same time, there has recently been noticeable progress in his acting...
The star of the legendary film “The Best of the Best,” Phillip Rhee, at one time sparkled very brightly, but unexpectedly and for a long time disappeared from the screen after the release of the far from most successful part of the franchise. As it turned out, he...
Today, on the wave of returning popularity, but not very constant in terms of viewer interest in category B action films, heroes of the past, forgotten by the viewer and producers, are returning to the screens (or rather, monitors). Yes...
Surely all fans of Jean-Claude Van Damme were waiting for the release of the film “A Pound of Flesh”, fidgeting impatiently in their chairs. The announced synopsis was very intriguing, the footage and videos seemed promising, and about the released documentary...
“Skin Trade” is a kind of attempt (conscious or not) to repeat the character scheme shown to us in “Showdown in Little Tokyo”, plus back it up with a sure-fire villain played by Ron Perlman and...
The release of films in the fighting genre is now quite rare. One of these movie unicorns turned out to be the Indonesian film “The Raid” by Gareth Evans, which made quite a splash and was actively discussed among action movie fans. In the wake of this success, Evans...
I didn't expect anything good from the film, because... I was worried about the director, Ernie Barbarash, who cannot be called an expert in filming action (even within the framework of DTV films). I was afraid that something similar to “Killer Games” would come out -...
In 2009, a film adaptation of the famous Tekken game series with John Foo in the title role was released, however, despite a budget of $30 million, the film turned out to be so unsuccessful that it...
I’ll start right away with the verdict: in my opinion, the third part of the adventures of the Expendables team was the worst in the entire franchise. If, compared to the first part, the sequel could boast of some improvements (a stunning opening...
I can’t describe this movie other than “Transformers for the poor.” Judge for yourself: Direction: Jonathan Liebesman decided not to worry too much and after the Nth number of views of the quadrology about robots, he borrowed from...
Chicago of the 30s in Shanghai style, i.e. instead of Thompson submachine guns and Colt pistols, only kung fu and nothing more (+ axes, sais, shurikens, tonfas, katanas and other cold stuff =). Initially, I was inclined towards the project...
Let's start with the good: David Belle looks great again, otherwise in the sequel to "District 13" and even more so in "Malavita" he looked somehow saggy and plump, in "Mansions" he is again...
I am waiting. I hope there will be something exciting.
I would like to mention Pasha as a person who has been an active participant in this project since…
Sad ending, albeit with a joke...
Added a video from the filming of "Twilight of the Warriors".
