Bloodsport is one of my favorite movies so needless to say Bloodfight is a close second! I think of Bloodfight as an unofficial Japanese sequel to Bloodsport. My favorite part of the movie was Bolo Yeung’s return as the villainous Chong Lee (Li). This is a classic martial arts revenge movie with a great hero. I love Kurata as an older hero who has to comes out of retirement to avenge his student’s death. I also loved the training scene; it was just like Rocky IV, but unfortunatly with no “hearts on fire.” But I loved the arrogant Chong lee’s lavish high gym training compared to Kai’s rustic/ wilderness training. Plus the closing credits and theme song were AWSOME! A great Asian 80’s ballad while the hero walks of into the sun set. This movie has a great story, great fight scenes, great music, and a great cast! Bloodfight is escapist martial arts heaven!
