i'm a big, big fan of Cynthia Rothrock (what a lady) and fight films in general. However this is mainly a Chad McQueen film and her role in it is clearly secondary but the final fight sequences involving Rothrock are some of her best ever filmed. I really like the boss character played to a tee by David Carradine, that Dalton Rhodes - he's one mean bad ass of a villain and his character is pretty believable for the plot.
The fight scenes in this film are pretty well done and the best is saved for last, the excellent David Carradine shows that he had a few tricks of his own when one on one with McQueen. The match up between Philip Tan and Cynthia Rothrock is excellent - frenetic, high octane, sustained action. Rothrock takes one hell of a beating but comes back and wins. The dim mak finale by McQueen is as good to watch as the Frank Dux (vs the sumo) move in Bloodsport.
really enjoyed dusting this one off again and was saddened to hear about David Carradine.
