Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Ehirerapp Waste of time

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

DigitalRevenantX7 Jimmy Boland, a Japanese-American serving time in a Los Angeles prison after being wrongfully convicted of a barroom brawl, is moved to the prison's toughest section after killing the prison's kingpin for revenge over the rape & murder of Jimmy's young friend. He is placed in the same cell as the prison's jailhouse lawyer Samuel Stark. At first, Jimmy wants to do his own time, but with two opposing groups after him as a star recruit, Jimmy begins to use his formidable fighting skills to stay alive – and in doing so embarrasses the prison's incompetent warden.The Bloodfist series has become one of the 1990s' most prolific B-grade action franchises – which is somewhat surprising since the original Bloodfist was nothing more than a cheap rip-off of the early works of Jean-Claude Van Damme (think BLOODSPORT & you're halfway there). A cheap knock-off it might have been, but the original Bloodfist was surprisingly successful in its limited theatrical release, so much so that producer Roger Corman greenlit something like eight sequels to date.I went into Bloodfist III: Forced to Fight expecting more of the same plot-less kickboxing mayhem that the first two films made a living off, only to be somewhat surprised. Forced to Fight doesn't feature much in the way of brutal hand-to-hand combat (unless you count the several bouts between Don "The Dragon" Wilson & his fellow inmates) but actually is the first film in the series to focus on the story. Granted, the story isn't terribly innovative & the character arcs are predictable, but the film wears its well-trodden concept as a badge of honour.There were some things that I found extremely unusual in a film like this. Director Oley Sassone shakes things up in a passable fashion – the hero is wrongfully accused of a fatal brawl & is serving time for it (an indictment of racial profiling) who kills the prison's kingpin as revenge for the prisoner raping & killing one of the hero's friends, resulting in the prison being split along racial lines. There is even a riot at the film's climax. The most unusual thing is the inclusion of a child molester as one of the hero's friends – I found this to be quite repellent but at the same time intrigued by the screenwriters' bold move, probably an attempt to show that all prisoners are only human, no matter what crime they are accused of.The film features some excellent performances. Wilson still has the acting range of a plank of wood but he is steadily improving. Here, he is given some rope to deliver more dialogue than he did in the previous three films he had made (the first two Bloodfist films & the cheapjack futuristic thriller FUTURE KICK). There is even a scene where he simply holds up his fist & remarks "This is my power." which is indicative of the career he has made for himself so far. Richard Roundtree is by far the best actor of the bunch, playing the jailhouse lawyer to good effect. Gregory McKinney & Rick Dean both are suitably slimy as the two opposing faction leaders in the prison & their eventual alliance is a sign that even in prison, allegiance is relative to human nature.

blacktiefight This is just hilariously bad. Richard Roundtree is the only actor who can even remotely act in this film. The film begins with a guy raping another guy, and a kung fu action scene where the protagonist avenges the rape. This is in no way dramatic, but everything looks is so ridiculous I was in tears laughing. Thats what earned this film a 4 where it otherwise would have received a one or a two. The action sequences are few and sub-par, and the film really seems to think it has a captivating story worth telling. If you like ridiculously dumb lines, by guys who shouldn't be acting, race war ridiculousness, and tons of silly hairstyles, this ones for you. If you are interested in a story thats actually worth watching avoid this one. Also one of the main characters is a sympathetic child molester! Also I could have sworn one of the characters with with no lines who gets killed appears again in a later scene.

Flmcrtic I felt that Don Wilson, the director and his supporting cast did a lot with little money. The script was strong as well as the performances of much of the cast. This ensemble helped bring Wilson's acting to another level. The action was OK, It could've been much better but it wasn't bad.

skullninja Bloodfist III is a credible movie on many levels. It is an excellent prison movie, a legitimate hand-to-hand combat movie, and even a good message movie. It's far better than Stallone's Lock-Up. The fight scenes are much closer to being real than most of Don "The Dragon" Wilson's movies. Most people wind up hurt severely and unconscious after just one of two blows (just like real life). I'd give this one a solid 8.
