As an action dude who grew up in the '90s, it's no surprise that the original Kickboxer remains one of my favorite movies. For reasons I don't remember, I've eschewed watching the sequels until recent.
I'm up to Kickboxer 3. It's as fun as Kickboxer 2, with an added twist: celebrity lookalikes!
The movie starts off with a machete-wielding goon who looks like Gilbert Gottfried. Then, we see a brothel patron who's a dead ringer for Leslie Nielsen. A bit later, our Kickboxing hero is confronted by a bum who looks like UFC fighter Clay Guida. During a kickboxing exhibition, we see a dude who looks like a pumped-up John Holmes.
Have you wanted to see a flamboyant Samba instructor who looks like a Stephen Root/John Waters hybrid? Well, I know where you can see one.
Remember that "Ba-na-na-way, ba-na-na-way-nanna-way" song from Only The Strong? It's makes a surprise return here during a beachside capoeira demonstration. I guess KB3 came out a year before OTS. Maybe OTS stole it?
Anyway, if you love DTV sequels, and celebrity look-a-likes, Kickboxer 3 is the movie for you.
