I prefer the first half, but it's a cool flick, no question.

They should have had a more varied and colourful batch of baddies floor to floor, kind of like that Bruce Lee movie. I also would have liked it to have seen the head bad guy doing more torture stuff to the cops as they were caught. You know, just to heighten his rep to moviegoers as a psychocase freak.

does look good, was it a subtitled version you saw or english dubbed?
Some of the best action films definitely aren't hollywood made. "The tournament" was a good bloody action packed movie start to finish and so was the latest universal soldier movie. Balls to the wall heavy hitting stuff all through.
Also check korean movie "I saw the devil", gory and brutal no holds barred. Good stuff from the guy at the helm of Arnolds comeback movie

Yeah, they should have had a Hapkido-dude Boss on one floor, a Huge 220 cm black Boss on another floor, a Dual Nunchaku-wielding Bandana-wearing Boss on the third etc

'Joint Security Area' is a VERY GOOD Korean movie. It has action but the outstanding story is what's so compelling. You can get it on DVD.

Saw it last weekend and thoroughly enjoyed it. One of the best action movies I've seen.

BUT .... I thought that the fight scenes were a little to long.... especially when the two bros took on the little guy. I felt that they should have called "Time Out" and taken a five minute break before getting back into it.

I agree that some foreign movies and/or independents are better than most of what Hollywood can produce.

I forget who produced ARENA but I thought that was also one hell of a great film. Check it out at Blockbuster

Old, I don't know, but certainly misinformed. This ain't a Hollywood flick. Hell, it's subtitled. Made in Phillipines.

FORT, Not sure ..... but I think it was made in Indonesia and not in the Philippines. Whomever made it did one hell of a great job though.

I was hoping at the end that  the brother who was the cop would turn and go back inside while the gate was almost completely closed to  somehow get his brother out.

I guess they are saving that for the sequel.

Anyone have any idea on how that second episode should be written?

Great film. Good to see that I wasn't the only one to like it.

Okay, maybe wrong about where it was made, so ... Oops.

I like your idea of how they could have left it for a sequel.

No, FORT, you could be correct about the Phillippines but I think Indonesia because I saw some mention of Indonesia during the closing credits.

Plus the lead actor (Iko Uwais) is from Indonesia.

Born in Jakarta, Indonesia, Iko Uwais has been learning Indonesian traditional martial art, Silat since he was 10 years old. National champion in 2005 in Silat Demonstration category, Iko's talent as a martial art actor was discovered by Welsh film Director, Gareth Evans who visited Iko's silat school for a documentary in 2007. Evans then asked Iko to quit his daytime job as a driver in a telecommunication company and join Evans' movie production company as the leading actor in his movies.

Who the hell was the little guy who took on the two bros at the end? He loved to kill his opponents and that actor did a great job playing that role.

The casting of a little guy for that role was genius.

I'd like to nominate him for an Academy Award.

Hollywood could never do a film like this.

I can now answer my own question ...... Yayan Ruhian

As far as I am concerned he took that picture over the top.

A real GetBigger ... a little guy who can beat up big guys.  But not over the internet.

2nd photo is Yayan the bad little guy
1st photo is the hero of the film

I do think you're correct, now that I think about it.

Yeah, his character is cool, but one thing I kept thinking while watching (and talked about with my bud after it ended) ... The guy punches and kicks constantly but never really does any harm (except when he, like, finally twists some dude's bean 'til it breaks or whatever). And the fellas he's fighting are not much bigger than him, either.

Especially in the final fight with the brothers. He's putting out the intended hard but all of it is really not having much in the way of a crippling effect. Hell, both bros walk out of the room quite fine after they've finished him off, even, despite being punched, kicked and thrown into "oblivion".

Little badass has all the moves but no strength or power to make it all effective. I mean, how could they sell this dude squaring off against a Poundstone type?! In Raid, there's not one guy weighing over 165 pounds, tops.

This is my rant for now (ha, ha).

GOOD RANT - Ho Ho.

A somewhat similar rant that I gotta express .....

What are all those other guys doing that allow the hero to fight each of them one on one .... and when he's done with one ..... another one appears on scene to continue the 'punch' until he does down and then another one immediately appears?

Are they all too busy making cell phone calls or what?

But there is another move that I understand is supposed to be somewhat similar.

I only saw a part of it in which the Karate hero fights 'thousands' of antagonists while running up the interior stair-case of a very big building. Anyone recall that one?
