I don' know whether this will apply or not, but there is an Indian movie named 'Khiladiyon ka Khiladi' (1996) whose literal translation of the title amounts to 'Player of Players!' where the main bad guy - or in this case, gal(!) is an Indian mafia don(ess!) settled in the US who tends to bet on underground fights where you battle to the death - no, don't get excited, it's not even half as good as it sounds! Basically, she kidnaps the hero's brother as he has some incriminating evidence against her and the hero spends the rest of the movie looking for his brother - culminating in him battling the lady don's champion fighter - the WWE wrestler The Undertaker in one of her death matches held at the movie's end!
Ever get fed up of watching all those US movies where the American fighter manages to beat the 'other guy' no matter how big the odds or his opponent are? Well, if the sight of a skinny Indian guy beating the tar out of a heavily muscled pitbull of a man who is at least a foot taller than him appeals to you, you've found the RIGHT movie! Oh, and the Undertaker who is played by Brian Lee, who was the second Undertaker from 94 - 96 in the WWE, NOT the original, classic and current Undertaker played by Mark Callahan, does a mean job of speaking dialogue in the Indian language - do white people who born and live in the US even know a word of the Hindi language in the first place?!!!
After watching this flick, all the people who criticize 'Valley of the Wolves' for being 'anti-US' and 'unrealistic' will have to eat their words - ever denizen of the US is portrayed as being stupid at best or psychotic at worst! Oh, and all the steroids in the world are no match for some bumpkin who drinks milk! Then again, knowing how adulterated the milk in India is, if you can drink that slop and not die of poisoning you're a superman of sorts! The hero of the movie, Akshay Kumar is sort of like the Indian version of Lorenzo Lamas - the people who complain that LOrenzo is dumb and a bad actor should see Akshay in action - he makes Lamas look like a genius AND an Oscar winner!
So in short the five things you will learn while watching this movie are:
5) Steroids are no match for dairy products
4) Dancing like a spastic in song sequences is good training for beating up champion fighters in death matches
3) Most of the white people in the US are either stupid and ignorant or bloodthirsty psychotics (this is NOT entirely untrue folks!!)
2) Despite being mute the entire time he's beating you up, the first time your opponent will speak to you, it will be in your own language despite him a)not setting foot in your country, b) not knowing anybody from there, c) not even KNOWING what country you come from
1) The audience will turn traitor and start cheering for you the minute you start beating up your opponent despite him being a native of the country just like them
And it's still not even HALF as bad as Chuck Norris' 'Invasion USA!'
