Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Leofwine_draca 13 STYLE STRIKE is an eventful little kung fu film shot in Taiwan. It opens with a girl beating up a bunch of goons including a guy who looks like Kim Jong-un before moving into a totally different story about a martial arts school run by Chen Sing, the film's only recognisable face. In something of a shock to this viewer, Sing isn't a bad guy this time around, and even though he doesn't have a whole lot of screen time it's still nice to see him as something other than the stock villain.The story about the intervention of an evil crime boss and his Western allies seems to have been inspired by the likes of THE GODFATHER with a little ROCKY-style ring action at the climax thrown into the mix. There's plentiful action, some of it routine, some of it staged in an interesting way, like a battle on a building site full of scaffolding. The hero is a beefy bloke without much charisma. The bits where he fights Western actors are fun. The whole film has a slapdash feel overall, but isn't too bad considering genre standards.
