Flash Point Review

Posted on February - 6 - 2010

Alternate Ep. Title:Tony the Tiger is an Archer Who Loves MMA!

Our third Donnie Yen martial arts movie review/discussion. I guess the old Yenster has grappled his way into your hardened hearts. Certainly a solid followup to the highly-praised Killzone (SPL) at least in terms of the fight choreography and highly-ballistic gun-play. Definitely bringing the goods with the modern day MMA style no-holds-barred street brawling.  

While the story and characters weren’t as compelling as they were in Donnie and Yip’s previous Hong Kong cop actioner, Killzone. The highly evolved free-flowing modern day martial arts fight choreography almost made up for the other areas that were lacking. Louis Koo and Collin Chou, of Matrix Reloaded fame, both acquit themselves fairly well. Especially Chou who almost manages to go toe to toe with the Yenster himself. Highly recommended to martial arts fans who can tolerate a very straight-forward/derivative storyline. Trust us, the fight scene at the end has to seen to be believed!

The Hard Cast is looking for some hardcore listeners who are willing to straddle the line between right and wrong! There are those who may accuse us of giving out unfair reviews but there’s a job to do and you better not make it personal or we might have to bust some heads!
