A stylish and enjoyable fight flick with just enough tongue-in-cheek content to keep us smiling.

A very dumb, and very satisfying throwback to a simpler time when American action films were as predictable as they were formulaic.

A hysterically entertaining train wreck.

Story-wise, the movie's not reinventing the wheel, but the combat highlights are many and varied enough to please fans.

There are smarter and more original action films to watch in the world, but few, trashy or earnest, are this consistently entertaining or brute force in their own honesty.

As it progresses, scene after scene in Retaliation are infused with this crazy little thing called "fun", and Moussi feels much more at home than he ever did in the first movie.

Jean-Claude playing a blind guy while Mike Tyson plays a second-rate trainer? The use of drug-cocktails to bring dead bodies back to life? Kinda yikes. Zero emotional relatability. Some of the humour is pretty good though. Not bad, but they really should have stopped with the first movie & left it there. Not all films need excessive sequels, especially when they just run the franchise into the ground.

I am not sure how the ratings are high for this one. The acting is unwatchable and whilst the fight scenes are well done, they are far too often that it becomes annoying.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

Great movie. If you are a fan of the original Kickboxer movie you will love this one.

As with the previous entry with Tong Po, played perfectly by Bautista, this is another great action flick. Poor acting at times drags it down, but it is still a remarkably good movie.

I thought this movie was great as it included so many real-life fighters from boxing, UFC, and stong-man competitions to make the fight scenes better. Other than the beginning of the movie & how he was captured, I thought the rest was good and the fight scenes even better.
