Street Warrior Audience Reviews

Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
The_Phantom_Projectionist STREET WARRIOR is one of many TV action films getting buried in the heaps of similar flicks that have sat around movie store shelves before heading towards the bargain bin. With a story that's not very inventive and fight scenes that were mediocre even at the time of its release, this is a watchable but totally overlookable addition to an already cluttered subgenre that will only truly interest fans of particular performers.The story: Discharged war veteran Jack Campbell (Max Martini) returns home to find his brother comatose after being drawn into an underground fight club controlled by a wealthy sadist (Nick Chinlund). Seeking revenge, he finds himself trapped in "the Gauntlet" as well when a family member is taken captive.The movie's biggest asset is its strong cast: though these roles could just as easily have been played by lesser-known performers, the effort put forth by Martini, Chinlund, sidekick Max Pehrlich, love interest Valerie Cruz, and a couple others is noticeable and keeps the movie watchable in lieu of a more compelling story or interesting fights.As tends to be the case with low budget action pictures, the problem with these fights is how they're shot and edited. The camera-work could be worse, but it still stays too close to the performers most of the time, making a lot of the action tough to follow. Further hindering the cohesiveness of the brawls is how clunkily shots are shoved together, oftentimes with considerable gaps in the action. Max Martini does a decent job at playing a fighter, and the martial cast is a decent mix of better- and lesser-known film fighters (including a surprisingly large Sidney Liufau as the champion), but their physical prowess can't save these mostly-bad thirteen matches.Chances are you reached this film's page because you're an action fan to begin with, and if this is the case, let me assure you that you've probably seen this movie many times before with different covers and a slightly tweaked storyline. Unless you're building a collection of underground fight flicks, this one's not worth the prices of purchase. There's just nothing new here.
smoothie_tsoe Hey, coming from a movie buff, not a critic.... this movie rocked, action-packed, good plot, doesn't slow down for a minute. If You are an action fan, you will love it. If you are looking for flaws, or just immune to good entertainment, then you won't like it. To be honest, this is a guys movie, not for the ladies. It's got the adrenaline, violence, and of course the nudity. I say under-rated & worth watching. This underground fighting movie moves at a fast pace. It keeps your attention. It showcases interesting fighters with different styles of fighting. And of course a corrupt organization. Along with the topless babes, what more can you want?
atekinc Love it. I saw this movie only just a few minutes again and wow I was definitely impressed with the portray that Max Martini put out as his character Jack Campbell, He still played the role as well as he did when he was in The Unit as Mack. He was always well at putting out a character who was a 'Hero' but yet he was still able to pack a punch so to speak. Jack Campbell was that man, He was the 'Hero' but didn't consider himself one. Also Nick Chinlund portrayed a villain amazingly well, especially when it got a certain scene of him fighting. This movie reminded me slightly of Jet Li in Unleashed, He had to fight for his Life also but he broke free as did one of the men in this although I wont reveal that because its a slight spoiler. All you need to know is that this Movie is definitely worth-watching if you enjoy a blood-sport related movie, Two men, One arena, One survivor. Hope you enjoy it!
hasanzehn OK, OK, I know the plot is the usual rubbish - disgraced ex-Special Forces goes back home after a real loooong time and just gets into more trouble.Dodgy cops, dodgier camera work and some lame characters - is there anything good about it? Well, yeah there is and that's only cos of the lead - Max Martini - and some of the fight scenes. I really think Max has great screen presence it's shame the story is pathetic, lame supporting characters and the budget low.I actually enjoyed it, primarily cos it's mindless fun. Also the main baddie tough guy reminds me of the Rock - if he weighed like 120 pounds more! You'll know what I mean when you see him. Enjoy!
