Case Walker (Michael Jai White) is a small time kick boxer trying to keep a low profile. He is recruited by his buddy Brody (Josh Barnett) to train him for a title match in Thailand. Case Walker is old school and has a "disruptive presence." Blah Blah Blah, formula formula formula.
Needless to say the whole film was predictable after the first few minutes, or even by looking at the DVD cover. That is not to say it was bad. Michael Jai White gave us a character to rally around, even though we knew the outcome. The main problem I had was that the lead up fights were better than the climax fight done in slow motion with a lumbering opponent (Nathan Jones) waiting to be hit. That was real lousy shooting and editing on that final battle.
Tony Jaa in a very minor role.
Guide: F-word. Hot Asian nudity.
