      Bass: Tina! It's showtime!

      Tina Armstrong: Dad! Not now I'm in my underwear.

      Christie Allen: Which I hate. Why you can't just sleep in the nude like me I'll never know.

      Bass: Oh my god.

      Tina Armstrong: No Dad, she's just another fighter. We're just sleeping together.

      Bass: Yeah I can see that.

      Tina Armstrong: No. I mean we're not sleeping together. We're just... sleeping.

      Bass: Seems to me like my baby girl's found a special friend. We'll settle it tomorrow, sweetie. Nice to meet you miss.

      Christie Allen: Oh it's Christie.

      Bass: Tina's real name's Christina!

      Tina Armstrong: Dad!

      Tina Armstrong: Thanks a lot, bitch.

      Christie Allen: Save your strength sweetheart, big day tomorrow fighting daddy.

    Brain off entertainment
    This film is about a group of fighters getting invited to a fighting contest. Along the way, they find out there is a plot behind it and they work together to fight the bad guys.

    There are quite a few problems with the movie. The plot is implausible. The DOA logo gets an on screen appearance too much that is very annoying. The love relationships seem so poorly built up that it exists just for the sake of existing. Not to mention the numerous soft porn scenes that make the film look cheap. Oh, and Devon Aokiwears the same facial expression on her face all the time, and her dialogs are spoken in such a plain and mundane way that is devoid of any emotion.

    However, there are good things about the film. The film is pure brain-off entertainment. The fight scenes are very well thought out and rehearsed. This alone makes the film fun to watch.
