Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBecause the film was a box office flop during its cinema release, the subsequent sequels were all released direct to video. Though this also makes this film one of the few theatrically released movies of the "fight to the death" sub genre of martial arts that became popular amidst the direct-to-video action films of the early 90s.
- GoofsAs Walter is playing Tetris, he turns to his dad Alex and starts talking. The game on the screen continues like someone would still be playing it - several blocks move horizontally, rotate and then descend rapidly even after Walter has put the controller away.
- Alternate versionsIn the UK, the unabridged version was released on DVD in 2005.

Featured review
I enjoyed this film because it was not only an action movie with some pretty good fight scenes, but also because it spent a bit of time on character development. Having the son of the main character be a martial arts student who demonstrates discipline and a bit of fighting courage made the movie a bit more dynamic in storyline than some early 90's action films. The character of James played by "Predator" star Sonny Landham was kind of a good family conflict and climax within the movie thus adding some depth. I found the movie fairly basic in terms of predictability, but it did have some spice within the plot. The fighting scenes were overall better than many other action films with animated injury sound effects and some good breaking clips. Overall the movie was enjoyable.
