Not exactly your usual plot

Jeff Wincott, who was making martial arts flicks at the same time as Jeff Speakman, plays a long-haired lawyer who loses everything -- not entirely his fault, it seems -- and is forced to fight in a series of illegal matches. That part of the plot you've seen before, but the rest of this action flick is a tad unusual. I won't say more about the plot, but I will tell you that the film has some exciting fights, and the ending ties neatly in with the rather odd opening. Wincott is pretty convincing as an ass-kicking lawyer. He is the brother of Michael Wincott, by the way. Worth a look for fans of both action and kung fu type flicks.
