Bloodsport is GOAT. As long as you don't watch it now that you're grown up.

We are on the 2nd page and nobody has mentioned the real star of the movie, teenage Frank Dux. His acting was quite possibly the GOAT performance.

I too...like others on here...recently rewatched one late night.

It's such a good fighting movie...I just skipped the stupid - "story" - non-fighting parts...and just went straight to the Kumite.

Thankfully most of the movie takes place there.

Great idea...save a ton of money...film basically most of the movie in one room...and still make it great.

But Frank Dux IRL was a total fraud and huckster.

Frank Dux overcame teenage retardation.

I love it. But Enter The Dragon might be better.

I've seen it no less than a half dozen times in the last year.

It might actually get better with each viewing.

If there is any movie that needs a "let's over analyze _______" thread, it's Bloodsport.

It's just way up there, if not #1. Wouldn't Enter the Dragon be considered a fighting movie, though? Those 2 and Rocky 1 and 4 probably in my top 5.

Terrible movie that is terribly fun makes for a great combination.

How has no one mentioned the kickass theme song?


I was taking Tang Soo Do at the time the film came out and I remember parents were calling my sensei saying, "Is that what you're teaching my kids?"


I also want to add that while Bloodsport is great, Kickboxer with Tong Po is also legit.

"Fight to Survive" aka "the kumite song" is crazy good. Stan Bush is a master of his craft.

Meh

Kickboxer shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath as Bloodsport.

I would have liked to see Chong Li v. Tong Po...his battle v. Suan Paredes doesn't count.
