ShangLuda Admirable film.

Freaktana A Major Disappointment

Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

adonis98-743-186503 A disgruntled teenager, sent to do community service at a rundown Karate school, enters an MMA tournament to face the man who killed his parents. The greatest thing about Tapped Out is easily Michael Biehn if you loved him The Terminator & Aliens he really does give a good performance and overall the performances weren't that bad is the way that the main character gets presented i mean they make him do all this stupid things like go shoot a guy and then back off and gets his butt kicked more times than i can count also the film borrows things from Karate Kid but i think the last 30 minutes or so pick up the movie really high and they give an interesting turn in the whole story and make the film more interesting it's a 7.5 out of 10 for me good but it does have it's problems.

danielwriter37 The movie all and all is what is to be expected. It's the typical David (good guy) Goliath (bad guy)story that many fight movies seem to emulate. There is two HUGE things in my opinion that prevented me from given this at least a 7. 1. The antagonist is HUGE compared to the main character. I guess it is plausible after all the training the guy a third of his size could win but not in dragged out fight. Not in a million years. It honestly looked like a typical high school student versus a WWE wrestler. They could of had the same affect and made it more realistic by not having the size difference as drastic. It just seems to obvious to me (David versus Goliath on crack). I would of had the antagonist his size or maybe a few weight classes higher than him. A guy doesn't have to look like a WWE wrestler to be intimidating. My second major critique is the fact that he's bound and determined to beat up the guy who killed his parents. He barely even attempts to contact the police and in the end its all good because he won the fight yet the bad guys not in jail. Not that the antagonist knows that the protagonist knows he killed his parents wouldn't he later go after the main character. The plot was basically someone kills my parents when I'm 12 and seven years later I win the fight and all is forgiven. The acting wasn't too bad and some of the screen writing was a little dry. Overall it was decent but those two facts I pointed out really destroyed this movie for me.

alexanderfester I really had high expectations for this film. Speaking is a truly big fan of the classic movie; "Never Back Down" - I just had to see this. For my dissatisfaction this was nothing true too the original. A well used crew combined with another "want to make it in Hollywood" -producer. The story screams predictable and I would be truly embarrassed to view this piece in front of my friends. The actors doesn't show any credibility... Yes, the hero figure is skinny fat (as we say in Norway), and does to an extent capture the audiences credibility. But please get some new material. Or, if you really want to make this an bad ass flick.. put some steroids up the kids ass like the other producers and get this kid some flesh on his bones... its painful to watch how this skinny mfg is supposedly about to kick the 250(xx) pounds champion of MMA's ass... seriously?

rajivness Entertaining movie about a kid who witnesses the death of his parents in a carjacking gone bad - similar to the batman story. Only difference is that the killer doesn't know the kid witnesses it. The kid then trains for an MMA tournament to battle against his parent's murderer. That's the rocky part - the running, weights, boxing, mat wrestling, etc. The karate kid part if the one that endures from beginning through till the end.Nothing original about the story since its a lot like Never Back Down and the 3 movie franchises just mentioned.It also has a David vs Goliath appeal since that's extremely apparent in the climax of the movie.Michael Biehn is the only known actor - not cast well imo. This is your typical 'happy ending' type movie. who cares whether it seems unrealistic to the point of being fantastic.
