the audience applauded

Perfect cast and a good story

How sad is this?

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Well Well.... i have wait up a long time to see finally this sequel to the original Ring of Fire that, to be honest, i really liked, even tough it was a low budget martial arts movie. But hey... I'm the most biggest fan of these anyway, my collection is growing and I'm trying to see them all, no matter how good or bad they are. So well yes i did enjoy the first movie. Here is the second one where most of all the original actors are back, which for a low budget is kind of rare. Dale Jacoby and Vince Murdoco have been in a couple of martial arts movies of the 90s, and they prove here once again they can do the job as side kick. Haven't saw them starring but well as side-kick they sure the job well.To get you in the mood, Dale and Vince where the bad guys in the first film, but since then, they and Don's character have grown better, understand the way of life and put the difference aside, and now Don's soon to be wife(which was his love interest in the first movie) is abduct and Don is on a quest to bring her back, with the help of his former foes and wife's friend.I was SO MUCH waiting to see the gang together after the first movie and i had trouble founding this copy, so its been nearly a year after i saw Ring of Fire 1, but i do remember all of it, i did enjoy it a lot. So well lets say sure the gang working together is good to see, and the martial arts in the movie are cool, but there was a couple things bugging me up. First if your sister is being abduct, will you let yourself be seduce by a bunch of hotties? I would be so much of my quest to get her back, i wouldn't care if it was Jessica Alba or another hottie in front of me. Secondly i would have like a few more "death cage" match with Murdocco and the others, that could have been sweet, but that is more of a wanting that a problem.Anyway Ring of Fire 2 is a well enjoyable sequel to the first one, sure a little cliché for most of it, sure you could have hope for a better story reuniting the gang together, but it was well decent enough so i enjoyed it. And it was cool to see them together. Dale have played mostly ass holes in his martial arts movies, and for once you can root for him, lol, he sure had talents back then, i don't know now in 2010 but I'm a little sad he never scored much in the 90s

"Ring of Fire II" may be a lot of things, but it certainly isn't lazy: in about 90 minutes you will see at least 3 giant explosions, 2 car chases, and more than a dozen fight scenes. And when you think the movie is over....NO! One more action scene coming your way. But what makes this one stand out in the sea of medium-budget action flicks is mainly its weird and claustrophobic setting: an entire underground system of tunnels and basements right below the surface of L.A., and an entire society, divided into gangs, living there by their own set of rules. The setting actually reminded me of "Alien From L.A." with Kathy Ireland, except that apparently most residents of THIS society spend their time extensively training in the martial arts! And if the gay subtext of half-naked men in leather isn't enough, there is also a gay radio announcer who openly comes on to Don "The Dragon" Wilson! Anyway, the violent fight scenes are occasionally impressive, and the explosions even more so. The film was followed by a very different in style sequel. ** out of 4.

Well... what can I say? It's fun... if you let it be fun. It's filled to the brim with well-choreographed fight scenes that are executed to perfection by professional martial artists... That seems to be the most true and innate value of this romp. The story seems to have been put in place primarily as a vehicle to get from one fight scene to another. Some moments of decent acting by the supporting cast will sneak up on you... as will some comedic moments provided by the comic relief. (The comic relief - physically - the smallest martial artist in the movie and naturally... portrayed in the film as the MOST girl-hungry!) The score is fine but the film has a very fun soundtrack that winds up being featured on an underground radio station within the parameters of the story.. If you like this genre of movies you'll like this one as much as you would any other...Too bad they didn't sell the soundtrack!

Just your average Don "The Dragon" Wilson movie. They guy whose been in all those awful Cyborg Cop movies shows off more "underground street fighting with thugs" style that was so big in the late 80s and early 90s. Playing "Dr. Do-Good" Johnny, Wilson fights a bunch of evil jumpsuit thugs, muscle freaks, and dorks on skates as he tries to save his girl Julie from the evil champion of the underground fighting world, Kalin. So your basic "Double Dragon", "Final Fight" or any other punch-and-kick video game plot plus he's got his comical posse following him slowly and fighting everyone else he encounters. Don also has Sy Richardson as the wise old guy in the form of a disillusioned and always-angry black ex- soldier who wants revenge on Kalin. If this is your kind of movie, enjoy, otherwise.............RUN BEFORE IT GETS YOU!
