Avis en vedette
If you're expecting an Oscar worthy movie,then you're in the wrong place. This movie include many great action star like Iko Uwais,Tiger Chen, Tony Jaa, Scott Adkins,and Michael Jai White which I think will be the main reason to watch this movie.
Plot writing for this movie might be a little bit weak for most of the part but you can't help yourself to enjoy the movie. The acting was good especially for Iko Uwais and Scott Adkins. The others is kinda... how I can say it? Cringe.
The action sequence was great and engaging. I mean if you're a fan of their movie, you'll definitely enjoy this movie action sequence.
Overall, it's a pretty enjoyable action for a VOD movie.

Chinese kung fu champ Tiger Hu Chen, Thai martial arts sensations Tony Jaa (Ong-Bak) and JeeJa Yanin (Chocolate), and Indonesian action star Iko Uwais (The Raid) represent the East; US multi-discipline black belt Michael Jai White and Brit bruiser Scott Adkins represent the West. With such an impressive line-up, Triple Threat could have been up there with The Raid (and its sequel), The Warrior King, and Ong Bak as one of the best action films of the last twenty years. Sadly, it isn't.
The cast cannot be held responsible: they do what they were hired to do -- kick ass (nobody really expected Oscar-winning performances). It's up to stuntman turned director Jesse V. Johnson to shoulder the blame, his handling of the action failing to show his more-than-capable performers in the best light. The plot is uninspired but it allows for plenty of shooting and punching and kicking; unfortunately, the fight scenes lack impact thanks to dreadful camerawork and duff editing, whilst the gunplay relies on CGI for much of the damage inflicted.
With a skilled action director such as Prachya Pinkaew or Gareth Evans at the helm, Triple Threat might have worked despite the rather predictable script, but in the hands of Johnson, the film is a frustrating wasted opportunity.
5/10, minus one point for killing off the lovely JeeJa Yanin way too soon. She goes out in fine style (reduced to a bloody mess by a grenade launcher), but she really deserved to be given as much screen time as her male co-stars.

I totally get people who are dissapointed in this. If you take the talent at hand, you'd imagine something more spectacular overall. And it's not just the very predictable story, I was expecting that. But cliches get boring fast and the fight scenes are good, but that is not enough to elevate it to a level that would make this a classic, which the cast would be deserving of.
Dialog is kind of wooden most of the time too (though there are some noteable and great exceptions, some may go over your head, since it is only 50 % in english, did not do a count, so that is estimate of course), so beware of that too. If you are just here for the action you will be mostly satisfied though, so I guess primary objective achieved

With a cast like this, I was expecting The Raid, Ong Bak, Boyka or The Night Comes for Us quality.
My advice is don't build your hopes up.
I can look past awful dialogue and ridiculous situations if the action is good but theres nowhere near enough to keep you distracted from what is, a bad movie.

Like the title says, the director has too much martial arts star power and too little to do with all of it. First and foremost tiger chen , has a very generic fight style and it brought down the scenes he was in. Iko continually gets beat down but thanks to overused cliches the bad guys talk too much and he gets in his hits. Tony jaa even feela slightly wasted compared to the protector. The final fight feels meh, without spoiling too much, that fight should have went a little different, but the director played it like an old action movie with no twist or anything that suprised us. Summed up, considering the star power in the movie, it should have been better done. I'm a huge fan of most of the cast and this movie failed to showcase their skills or fighting styles. Watch once and done.
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThe tagline on US/UK home video releases reads "The Expendables of the Martial Arts world". In Germany it was "Like Expendables without retirees."
- GaffesNear the beginning of the film, a mercenary team is moving through the jungle. One of the men starts to mess with a piece of his equipment when another tells him not to bother as their GPS equipment won't work where they're at. Since GPS uses satellites, their equipment will, in fact, work anywhere in the world as long as they're outside.
