Bloodsport 4K & Blu-Ray Steelbook - Limited Collector's Edition [2023]

Lance Henriksen is great in everything he does and his Fouchon is next-level diabolical - and hilarious. He’s a man who clearly loves what he does and takes that “work” seriously, but at the same time has the utmost contempt for his clients willfully killing them if and when necessary. When they need to start hunting Boudreaux, instead of just letting loose his lethal right-hand man Pik (the always awesome Arnold Vosloo), he instead gives select former clients the chance to pay him an exorbitant fee for the opportunity to kill the uber-mulleted Van Damme knowing full well most are likely to die. He's evil and also a bit of a grifter. Our hero and villain share very little screentime together but it’s a classic dynamic both actors play well. Not that I was expecting 'Avatar'-like levels of controlled video precision, but what I did want was a noticeable upgrade from the grainy VHS and DVD releases that preceded it. And I guess that I got that, to a degree, but to an even bigger degree it's more of the same.

Gary (Academy Award winner Jamie Foxx) to save his family business. Tempers flare and laughter ensues as the unlikely pair bond while exposing corporate corruption and racial injustice in this inspirational, triumphant story.For a synopsis of the film, please see Martin Liebman's review of Warner Bros.' 2010 Blu-ray edition, a double feature with Timecop that served as both films' first and English-friendly effort that's well worth importing if you don't want to wait and find out.
