The worst Martial Arts movie I ever saw was a South African one from 1980 with James Ryan called "Kill and Kill again". It was about a Nazi Karate instructor from WW2 who wanted to get even with a Japanese instructor for a competition during WW2. The Japanese instructor bought off His team with Diamonds. It was horrible and it always seemed like it was on one of the Cable Movie Channels when I got out of School from 1981-1984.

You must not have seen many Martial Arts movies. Bloodsport is actually pretty good compared to a lot of stuff out there. Almost anything with Cynthia Rothrock in it is much worse than a JCVD flick.

Don't get me wrong, still love watching them. As a matter of fact, I just finished Undefeatable on YouTube today. Search for worst fight scene ever on YouTube and tell me that it isn't worse than the Kumate.

You know what? Forget searching, I will save you the trouble.


YouTube - Best fight scene of all time

Don't let the word Best fool you.

I thought Bloodsport had good fight scenes. The worst I've seen was Gymkata starring that former olympic gymnist Kurt Thomas.

I want more out of a martial arts movie than just "a good fight scene." A good fight scene is just that: a good scene. It isn't a good movie.

And JCVD has never made a good movie.

LOL, I was just explaining Gymkata to my wife who had never heard of it before. What a great cheesy flick! Good thing there was a set of parallel bars in that alley!

People can say what they want about JCVD but at least he doesn't rely on all the stupid wire work to get the job done. CTHD was beautifully shot and had a great story but I hate the stupid wire fights.

I am so surprised no one has said "The Spy Next Door" yet... the martial arts tactic in there was degrading to Jackie's normal roles.
