Good throwback to the 80s. Not perfect, but its very good for the budget. It's like the Expendables, seeing all the 90s martial arts stars like Kurt McKinney, Matthias Hues, Cynthia Rothrock, etc. The best part of the film is the soundtracks done by Paul Hertzog and Stan Bush (also behind Bloodsport/Kickboxer). Some gripes were that I think while the fights were good, they were way too short. To add to that I think the extras who fought were too old and bland (except for the Muay Thai, Capoeira, and the guy who fought Kurt McKinney). It made the amazing training montages build up to something sort of underwhelming. It has its moments though. Unfortunately, some things happened in the films' production limited its huge potential. Such as inflation, the director getting kicked out of post-prod, David Yeung injured(?), Viking Samurai appearance (very cringe and delusional fella), etc. Overall, I think the film has succeded in its purpose, if they make a sequel, I think they should add stars like Loren Avedon, Gary Daniels, etc. with a different plot. I give this movie a 6/10.
