5/10
R.J will supply......

Warning: Spoilers
Jason Stillwell, a Bruce Lee fan, is beaten numerous times by some really badly dressed people, and trains with the ghost of Lee.....

Jason then must use his newly acquired skills to save Seattle from a crime syndicate, whose top martial artist is the deadly Ivan T. Russian, played by Van Damme, who is easily the best thing about this movie.

This film is basically Rocky IV, meets Breakin', with a little bit of Ghost meets The Karate Kid, and its as bonkers as it sounds.

The acting is hideous, even making Van Damme seen sincere, but its a good laugh while it lasts.

Their are so many troupes in this, you could write an essay on how many there are, and how its scarred so many action movies since.

The soundtrack is brilliant, the fight scenes are a little cheesy, and the bad guys are fitted into two categories, high school bad guys fighting for the affection of a badly cast love interest, and the gangster side, where everyone dresses as Roger Moore circa 1975.

It's w love it or hate it film, I like it because I loved these types of films, but I'm giving it a realistic rating.

But it is the best film ever made about a boy giving a girl a rabbit for her birthday..
