By Paul Bramhall In 2025 audiences were hit with the double whammy of the John Wick spin-off Ballerina, and the massively popular Netflix movie KPop Demon Hunters, so it was perhaps only a matter of time before someone thought to combine … Continue reading

Mexicali (2026) Review
Director: Luke LaFontaine Cast: Bren Foster, Tania Raymonde, Plutarco Haza, Kris Van Damme, Louis Mandylor Running Time: 99 min. By Z Ravas Mexicali is a movie that knows precisely what its audience wants and decides to give it to them without delay. It’s been two short years since Bren Foster broke out on the international action scene with Life After Fighting, and the filmmakers behind Mexicali understand that fans are … Continue reading

By Paul Bramhall Is there another city in Europe that has more connection to the kung-fu genre than Rome? I’m going to say no.

Martial Law (1991) Review
Director: Steve Cohen Cast: Cynthia Rothrock, Chad McQueen, David Carradine, Vincent Craig Dupree, Andy McCutcheon, Philip Tan, James Lew, Tony Longo, Patricia Wilson, Benny “The Jet” Urquidez, Professor Toru Tanaka, John Fujioka Running Time: 89 min. By Lauren Weiner Martial Law is a chronically under-loved action flick, one that perfectly embodies the so-bad-it’s-good sub-genre of early ‘90s action movies. Detectives Sean Thompson (Chad McQueen) and Billie Blake (Cynthia Rothrock) chase … Continue reading

By Henry McKeand Steven Seagal is horrible. He’s horrible to stunt performers, he’s horrible to women, and he’s been a horrible screen presence for the vast majority of his career.

Ruthless Bastards (2025) Review
Director: Bruce Fontaine Cast: Sean Patrick Flanery, Casper Van Dien, Theresa Lee, Don Lew, Hasleen Kaur, Parmish Verma Running Time: 90 min. By Z Ravas As time marches on and brings changes with it, “progress” doesn’t always feel like progress; perhaps that’s why there’s something comforting about crime movies that feature aging tough guys who can reminisce about the good ‘ol days—before smartphones and social media—while still cracking heads. I’m … Continue reading
