    Storyline

    Edit
    A number of fighters are invited to DOA, an invitational martial arts contest. They travel to the tournament island by plane, until they have to jump out mid-flight with parachutes, and then have until sundown to reach the main island to be entered into the tournament. Fighters are then pooled against one another in a knock-out style tournament, with the loser of a battle sent home, and the winner progressing to the subsequent round. The plot revolves around four female fighters who begin as rivals, but subsequently find themselves teaming up against another force. —Wikipedia

    pop corn movie at its best
    It is 2021 now.but watch this 2006 movie is still fun.it is a tv game adapted movie,not big budget mission impossible or the bourne identity.but still full of good action fights,great stunt design,no unnecessary cheap CGI,good charactor development.and even it is 15 years ago,the director made a full hot diverse female team do the final big combate.

    nothing to complain,just good entertainment.
