The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

This mediocre movie's sets mostly remind me of the cheapest WWE "sport entertainment"; people supposed to be killing machines look and act more like WWE/WWF freaks from the 1980s. The storyline is ridiculous: undercover police chief ( say Steve Martin gets balls ) and rat-faced latino heel blackmail bunch of well-meaning fighters into a sting operation to bust a murderous ring whose henchman is a 150kg, 1m55 Chinese steroid Michelin Man whose looks make Bolo Yeung look like Alain Delon in his best days, go figure. This movie tries to copy here & there to look larger than life...the latino heel, a horse faced, long haired fighter who probably was thought to imitate the cheap Lorenzo Lamas flicks of the late 80s...Zabka plays the cute boy ala Van Damme...the movie fails on all but one respect: fight scenes make up most of it and the filler (acting, storyline, character development...) is kept to a bare minimum. Nice to see Bolo Yeung and shame he got so little screen time.

Shootfighter 2 is better than the first movie. This is mainly because of the fight scenes, who are pretty good. They're nowhere near as brutal as the scenes in the first movie were, but they're in fact better all the way through. Also, it's more focus on Bolo Yeung in this movie than in the previous. He still isn't the lead, but I really liked his performance in this one. Of course, this is not an A-grade movie and it has it's unintentionally funny situations. Some of the fights (and fighters) are for example just comical, but that's just a proof that the movie doesn't take itself that seriously. A good and entertaining movie.

I liked this movie a lot;it had solid martial arts action, and Bolo's final fight made the whole thing worth watching. He is the master, his style is just so entertaining and a pleasure to watch. Yes, I wish he would had more scenes, but the movie was building up to it, we all knew the reluctant master was going in...and he delivered. Zabka was pretty good, it was such a nostalgic moment, seeing him fighting on screen again. Of course, the Capoeira fighter was another highlight I must say, being a practitioner myself. He made things a little more spicier than the movie otherwise would have been. There's a gratuitous love scene which is always nice, and I especially liked the arrogant bodyguard. Overall a solid movie and a lot of action.

After seeing Shootfighter 1, and the buckets of blood they shed, I was ready for another rousing jaunt of open handed heart massage, and chiropractics in a cage. But nooooooo, this was like the Barney version of the first movie, with that lamer from the Karate kid. At least Bolo Yeung still kicks booty, although he needs to do more movies like Bloodsport and Caddyshack.
