Episode 94 - American Kickboxer 1 (1991)



With recent entries you might think Cannon is hanging in there, holding on as long as they could to deliver cheap action classics. Unfortunately, this is about the time they also starting putting out duds like American Kickboxer 1, a movie with far more spare parts than any cohesive whole. As a movie it just doesn't hold together.

And unlike American Ninja 4: The Annihilation or Delta force 3: The Killing Game, it also isn't saved by a director putting in a bit more work behind the chair. What you are left with is a rather flat experience reminiscent of the lesser entries in Cannon's library. A shame considering how surprisingly fun the last few entries were.

This one just doesn't work.

Randy's Score: 2/5
