On the plus side this low budget action film has some location shooting in San Francisco.

However this is a movie that looks cheap and amateurish, some of the editing looked really basic.

This is a showcase for martial arts star Ian Lauer who looks a bit like a younger Hugh Jackman. We see him workout in this film and show off his muscles. However he is not very charismatic onscreen being easily upstaged by the actor who plays his foster brother.

The story of a MMA fighter Jake Bolt who goes on the run after refusing to throw a fight is humdrum. The scene where some goons go around San Francisco stopping random strangers and showing them a picture of Bolt is laughably bad. The fight scenes are functional and nothing elaborate.

When I was 12 I used to love movies like this. As a matter of fact, my passion for these led me to discover the real martial arts. This movie is so reminiscient of God-awful '80s martial arts movies that I couldn't help but watch it.

nobody come back, nobody can fight, and nobody can write a plot. That's exactly the movies I was obsessed with when I was a kid. Let's just call it a walk down memory lane.

I would warn about spoilers, but this movie can't contain spoilers. It doesn't have a plot to spoil.

Shirtless Ian looks pretty good here, but not great. Other than that, really not much to see. A retread of 80's forced-to-fight or forced-to-take-a-dive actioners, but with no natural market for those anymore, has no home. There is little to love here.

Just viewed this movie on Roku. Script was lacking depth in every area. I almost feel sorry for the actors having to work with this poorly written script that totally lacks suspense. I like to look at credits. OMG, who did the credits, someone fresh out of film school? Wow! No opening credits except the film companies name. The end credits are a disaster. A LONG list of extras (who are normally uncredited, or if used at all, placed well down on the list), follows the acting credits. The Casting Director and the Production Designer, who are above the line positions that should have been included on the single role end credits, are buried underneath the extras! The hierarchy of the crew positions is a mess and further adds to the amateurish elements of this film. On a positive note, the movie's theme song was done very well.

The movie was very good and had a great story plot which made this movie a whole lot entertaining. Made a good reference to martial arts throughout the movie.

This is the action film that the indie scene needed. Great bay area locations, fast cars, great kung fu. Stellar performances from some of the greats like Mike Placencia, Marcus Spencer, and the beautiful Teresa Navaro. Hope to see more films like this soon!

If your into ActionMovies, Enter The Fire should be on your list of Action Movies. The fight scenes are amazing. This is a must see action movie,

Solid story, compelling visuals and great action scenes. Ian Lauer shines and delivers a strong perfomance as usual.

Well written, action packed and it kept me at the edge of my seat! Big Lou and a stellar performance by Guy Grundy! Will watch again for sure! Go out and see this now!
