Quote: "Push through some of the slower points and you will be smacked in the head with some sublime martial arts theatrics. Recommended without reservation for action fans."

Quote: "All things considered, if the awkwardness levels had been toned to about a 6 (instead of, say, 8 or 9), The Foot Fist Way would have been a great independent comedy."

Reviewed by Dan Mancini
Quote: "What a drag that the Blu-ray edition of Kill Bill: Volume 1 has the same lame batch of extras that appeared on the nearly barebones DVD."

Reviewed by Dan Mancini
Quote: "Kill Bill: Volume 2 is a competent if uninspired Blu-ray release. A modest audio-video upgrade over the SD DVD, no new extras, and the cold, hard truth that the movie appears to represent the beginning of a downward spiral for Tarantino."

Reviewed by David Johnson
Quote: "A must-own for...well, anyone with eyeballs and a love for dudes punching each other in the throat."

Reviewed by Gordon Sullivan
Quote: "For what it is -- a Western adaptation of a Chinese classic -- the film is not bad. But fans who've waited decades for this matchup might be a little disappointed."

Reviewed by Kristin Munson
Quote: "Brotherhood of the Wolf is what happens when you meld an American blockbuster with a Hammer horror and a Shaw Brothers epic: A fast-moving costume drama with sexy accents, martial arts, and a dollop of cryptozoology."

Reviewed by William Lee
Quote: "Like a stir-fry of new ingredients combined with leftover ideas, Seoul Raiders is a big serving of entertaining, though forgettable, action-comedy."

Reviewed by Paul Pritchard
Quote: "Its well choreographed and executed fight scenes are brutal and unflinching. With the camera getting right into the action, they offer a sweet respite from the banality that makes up most of the film."

Reviewed by David Johnson
Quote: "It's probably a cheap shot to smack around the 'unrealistic' nature of the fighting in a movie where the main character wears a Fram air filter on his face."
