After enduring a difficult training and beginning a romance with journalist Janice Kent (Leah Ayres), Frank is given the opportunity to fight. But can he survive?

This review made me very sad. I’ve never heard so many negative things said about Bloodsport! You can’t say it has no story/plot and then also say the flashback scenes explaining the backstory went on for way too long lol. Also, he didn’t totally ditch the military, he was going on leave and they just didn’t like where he was going, but again that’s a bunch of plot and story added to the mix... so to say that there’s no story and it’s just a one vs one fighting move doesn’t make sense.

Its another van damme movie thats basically the exact same as this movie just with more plot and better story, just a more flushed out movie. Its kinda ridiculous though how much the exact same things happen in both movies, even little things.
