Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Nonureva Really Surprised!
ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
ivo-cobra8 Bloodfist III: Forced to Fight (1992) in my opinion is the best one in the series and honestly my favorite film in the Bloodfist series. It is entertaining an adrenaline, prison style action flick from the 90's. I know I wrote years ago about Bloodfist review and saying it is my favorite film, which I watch it more times, than I have watched this one. I love prison movies my all time favorite prison movie is Death Warrant (1990) with Van Damme which he made that movie 2 years earlier before Don "The Dragon" Wilson made this movie. Honestly I would say this one in the series for me, is the best one and it is completely different film from all the rest seven movies that Don Wilson made. I have enjoyed the action, the fighting sequences and mostly I have enjoyed a real portraying of a human drama in this film. The acting from Don Wilson and the rest of the actors is convincing and the fighting scenes are very realistic.I grew up watching Don "The Dragon" Wilson's movies and a lot of his movies are crap. Not that he was the worst actor, but he was never wounded like Steven Seagal and he was never bloody, or even trying to put a hard fight, everything was acted nonsense which it was stupid. I always hate that Wilson has to get a girl on the end of his action movies (not counting Bloodfist sequels except VII , he always has to make sex scenes. I never believed that Don Wilson is a sold out for making such a awful cheap horrible movies. Bloodfist and Bloodfist IV: Die Trying were the only movies that I have saw on a TV as a kid. I never saw other movies until on TV arrived Bloodfist VI and VII. Anyway watching this movie again for the second time I have watched 5. years ago on DVD , I was really surprised by the acting, by the action drama in prison and how good it turned out to be. Don Wilson really surprised me, the first Bloodfist movie was a rip off of Van Damme's Bloodsport (1988) this movie it wasn't and Wilson even had a sex scene in the first movie, which I hated that. In this movie nether once he had a girl, or sex, which he did not had one neither sex scenes at all and I love that. I know I wrote on Death Warrant my review that this movie ripped off the idea from Death warrant I was wrong.This movie is way different from Death Warrant is not even a close similar, this film shows the real life in prison, how is the life behind the bars. A lot of fans are watching Bloodfist series for the fight scenes and action, but this movie is better for me than all of them. I don't agree with IMDb scoring 4.9 this movie deserves at least 6 rating not 4.9. The other actors like are Richard Roundtree as Stark, Gregory McKinney as Blue and Rick Dean as Wheelhead did all a wonderful job playing their characters. I have enjoyed all of them together and again the portraying a human drama in this movie is very realistic and the fight scenes, especially on the end with Wilson fighting Gregory McKinney and Rick Dean while throwing the gas in their faces is very realistic. This is the first time I have ever saw Don Wilson bleeding out and that he got hits and beatings in a kick boxing fight.Don Wilson also plays a different character a prisoner Jimmy Boland in the first two movies he played Jake Raye, in this movie he play's completely different character and well done. I love Bloodfist III: Forced to Fight to death it is my favorite film in the Bloodfist series. Upon re watching this recently I'm pretty sure this is the best movie in the series; it has a genuinely interesting plot and it's also the most gritty and hardcore of the series. A young boy even gets raped in prison during the opening scene which pretty much sets the tone for this movie. This has a very different tone from the "fun" martial arts flicks that were the first two Bloodfist movies whereas this is more serious and frankly disturbing.Bloodfist III: Forced To Fight is my favorite film in the series and I love it to death. This flick get's a perfect 10 score by me. It feels pretty authentic with the supporting cast all looking like genuine criminals, giving it an extra air of grittiness. This film is awesome.
Comeuppance Reviews Jimmy Boland (Wilson) is in prison after a barfight gone wrong. Now in prison, he fights a guy named Luther because he raped his friend and Luther dies because of it. Now the Black gangs on the inside want to kill Jimmy. The White racists welcome him into their camp, but Jimmy refuses. Now he's got two prison gangs out for his blood, and, being the loner that he is, Jimmy Boland is...forced to fight! Jimmy is put in a cell with the intellectual and respected (by most) Stark (Roundtree) and they become buddies. Also, the pedophile Diddler (Cardone) is portrayed as sympathetic and he and Jimmy also forge an uneasy friendship. Seeing as Wingate State Penitentiary is considered to be a state-of-the-art facility, the higher-ups are hushing up a lot of the corruption and misdoings. As alliances on both the inside and outside are constantly shifting, will Jimmy be able to expose the truth and fight his way to freedom? Bloodfist 3: Forced to Fight was the first in the Bloodfist series not to be connected to the first two. It really should have been called simply Forced to Fight, but the ever-crafty Roger Corman must have thought they should unnecessarily slap the Bloodfist moniker on it just to be safe. Seeing as how this movie actually went to the theater but tanked, it was the final theatrically-released Bloodfist film. The fact that three made it to the theater is still impressive.Truly this is Don the Dragon's Death Warrant, and he carries it off in his own inimitable way. The filmmakers seemingly really tried to make him look like Lou Diamond Phillips this time around. Much like how Frank Zagarino was meant to resemble Dolph Lundgren in Armstrong. But it's really not needed, The Dragon stands on his own. For this movie, they actually got another name, Richard Roundtree. His role is substantial and he acquits himself well in what is really an ensemble film. Then again, he was competing directly against French Fry (Callahan) and Weird Willy (Schott) so all bets are off. But he took the role seriously, which is good. Peter "Sugarfoot" Cunningham of Above the Law (1986) fame is here as an inmate named Champ. Though he's not credited in the film, we strongly believe Ian Jacklin is on board as well, as one of the Aryans, or, as they call themselves, "Scooter Trash". I know, I don't get it either.The movie is entertaining, and, for its kind, surprisingly well-written. There was an attempt to be serious here and deal with real issues. We felt that was done well and an interesting change of pace. The pace was to be changed once again with the fourth Bloodfist film, whose tone is much lighter. The tradition of the actor/fighter's championship titles appearing along with their credit is maintained, Eric Lee helped with the fight coordination, and the Michael Elliott score is worth pointing out as well. Also, for movie night, the prisoners all watch TNT Jackson (1974). That probably wouldn't occur today. In actuality, a lot of the prison scenarios here aren't completely realistic. But hey, Wingate is a new kind of prison.This Don the Dragon prison film under the Bloodfist banner is worth seeing.for more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com
bobbyd7085 i have all eight of em.this one is quite noteworthy of recollection.especially if i need to laugh.dont get me wrong.overall it's not too shabby.i'd give it a 6/10 and the dragon is a legendary and highly respectable kickboxer and his acting is so so for a kickboxer i guess,but like i said.if i need to recollect something to make me laugh then i meditate and remember this flick with it's one very unique character...... none other than the nerd who's convicted for....ummm.never mind that.it's just not worth elaborating on.it's too absurd to think an innocent nerd like that would do any harm to anyone anyhow.but anyway. the part where he gets killed is so ridiculous that it's actually got lots of unintentional humor aspects/or credentials going it's way.i mean,seriously.he's this weak little nerd and they need to stab him like 10x before he finally crumples into the corner and bows out.wtf???? i mean seriously.each and every stab he moans out through the towel they have around his mouth.does this guy have extra internal organs keeping him going or something?everybody else i see getting stabbed to death in flix die after the first stab pretty much.maybe the second if they're real real tough.i mean,think about it.it's freakin hilarious!!! nevertheless.i recommend this one for plenty of prison fistucuffs and don wilson kick expertise. just had to point out that one scenes extremely strange and wonderous particularities though. peace!!!
