As part of sitting through a handful of Mark Dacascos movies, then I also came upon the 1993 action drama "Only the Strong". Now, this is a movie that I had not seen before, so of course I was interested to watch it.
I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into here, but boy, talk about a swing and a miss of a movie. Yeah, the whole concept of misbehaving school students that are picked up by a rough teacher just isn't my cup of tea. It has been done and seen before, and to a much more entertaining level than what writers Sheldon Lettich and Luis Esteban managed to churn out with the storyline for "Only the Strong".
Personally, I found this 1993 to be a boring and rather pointless movie. So I wasn't enjoying it, and it was a really difficult movie to sit through, especially since the storyline failed to appeal to me. And as for Mark Dacascos being in the movie, sure he was there, but this movie was not among his top work.
I am sure that viewers interested in the Brazilian martial arts style Capoera will get some enjoyment out of "Only the Strong". However, I sat down to watch the movie for the entertainment value of a good story, and that just wasn't there for me.
Today in 2022 was the first and last time that I will watch director Sheldon Lettich's 1993 movie "Only the Strong".
My rating of "Only the Strong" lands on a three out of ten stars.
