Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

sveknu This movie delivers the goods if you're a true, hardcore action fan. It has lots of flexing, brutal violence, really cool fighting scenes and a typical straight-to-video story. The plot was somewhat interesting, even though it's a typical "dark future"-plot that was so normal for the 80's and early 90's. Gary Daniels is great in this movie. Of the people involved in this movie, he performs the best fighting of them all. I wonder why he isn't more well known among people. He should be right up there with van Damme (and far above Chuck Norris). The story in this movie also has a huge surprise to it, but I won't reveal it here. Watch the movie for yourself instead. Oh, how I just love fighting tournament movies!!

KBUTHEWARRIOR literally it's painful to watch this drivel no story the acting is Beyond sub par i thought i was having a heart attack while watching this movie come to find out it's just my gag reflex working overtime. i love The ultimate warrior as much as the next guy.........come to think of it i don't like him nor his performance in this total Crapfest. This Movie is Mind numbing and Stupid. it's nothing but badly choreographed fights and very bad acting. I love bad movies i mean they make you laugh cause their so bad but not this piece of crap all it makes me wanna do is drink so i can kill the brain cells that contain memories of this movie. In Final never watch this movie people it's like the video in the ring only instead of you dying, you kill 95 minutes you could have spent doing something Else, like reading or drinking lmao 0.11111111/10 this movie is a 100 on the jobber scale

plantostickthat So directors, explain yourself. Why did you call this movie firepower when the story has NOTHING to do with firepower, huh???With that out of the way, this movie sux. The basic story is that the cops have made a 'zone of personal freedom' in the middle of LA, where there is no police assistance provided. But, those crafty criminals (i thought it would have been pretty obvious), they commit crimes and then run and hide in hellzone. So anyway, one time, the most feared gang leader, the swordsman (ooooohhhhh) is arrested and then his crooks break him out of jail in a bloody attack on the police station. Then, these two cops decide they have no choice but to go in after them.This is where the movie loses it completely. Why the hell do they need to go in after the crooks into hellzone? Basically, they arrive, see a fighting ring, watch for 10 minutes (the audience is treated to the whole 10 minutes of fighting), and then completely forget about their mission of revenge and decide that their only option is to enter the death ring competition and FIGHT! Apparently this is to infiltrate the baddies (like ANYONE cares, its actually legal anyway), but they achieve nothing as they have numerous oppurtunities to get the baddies. So basically, the ENTIRE movie is fighting. Yep, they soon jettison the story and have non stop death ring matches. I guess i should have seen it coming with a WWF wrestler, but still.........Anyway, to sum it up i wrote a haiku:This movie sux hard It has no story and that what a crap movie.I hope this assists you in making the decision not to watch it (not that you'll be able to find it anyway........)

richard-318 This is one of those actions that is hardly heard of at all, it's very low budget and is below the likes that B-grade actioners like Olivier Gruner, Lorenzo Lamas and Billy Blanks, it is more like a Z movie but is suprisingly entertaining. The plot is average for an action film but there are some good sub plots like the search for an AIDS vaccine. The acting is poor, Gary Daniels sporting a Status Quo like hair do and putting on a ridiculous Aussie accent, as for Chad Mcqueen( yes son of steve) he puts on a good performance and almost looks worthy of an upgrade to the Seagal,Lundgren and Van Damme B movie categary. The real star of the show was Jim Hellweg (WWF Great the ultimate warrior) who although has about 2 or 3 lines, one of which is a grunt,he really does have a powerful onscreen presence and looks very menacing. At least the writers didn't make the same mistake other's have done when casting wrestlers in films by giving them, too much dialogue. Another good thing about the Ultimate one is he does all his own stunts and fighting in this which Hulk Hogan does'nt in his films, and for a laugh i urge you to watch some of the Hulksters films to see the amount of work is done by a stunt double some of which was pathetic and which a one legged 80 year old arthritic would probably have done( Hulks film Secret agent club is the best example, for example blokes with rubber bald patches put on their head just to collide with a wall or do a kick with just a bit of agility needed). Any way firepower is average by B-action standards and the fights are pretty good.ps: i apologize to all hulk-a-maniacs( he did throw himself about in the wrestling)
