Jean-Claude Van Damme, Mike Tyson, Alain Moussi, and Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson in Kickboxer: Retaliation (2018)
One year after finding vengeance for his murdered brother, MMA champion Kurt Sloane finds himself back in Thailand kidnapped and imprisoned there by a powerful gangster (Christopher Lambert). His only shot at freedom is to win an underground death match against a 400lb killer enhanced with state of the art drugs (Game of Thrones' Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson). To make it out alive, he seeks training unlike anything he's ever endured, with the help of the legendary Master Durand (Jean-Claude Van Damme) and fellow prisoner Briggs (Mike Tyson).

    • Trivia
      Despite the original Kickboxer having five sequels, this is only the second time Jean-Claude Van Damme appears in a sequel, in the franchise and the second time the character of Kurt Sloan will be the lead character instead of being killed off as in the original Kickboxer 2.
    • Goofs
      The movie was suppose to take place in Bangkok, but after Kurts practice fight he is riding in a car, and you can see the highway sign having Hebrew letters.

    Far better than the previous chapter, Kickboxer: Retaliation delivers spectacular fun!
    The flick really surprised me. It contains some well-choreographed action scenes and the storytelling is very intense. Alain Moussi is a great choice as Kurt Sloan. The man is very skilled in martial arts and boy, this is visible on the screen. The whole cast is superb. I really liked the cameo of Ronaldinho and how he throw balls at Kurt Sloan. There are some quality fight scenes with Mike Tyson as well and JCVD is simply grea as Master Durand. His character is witty and well-written. Jean-Claude proves that he still got the moves! There are many MMA stars that appear in the movie as well and this powers the whole fun. What makes the flick utterly entertaining is the almost half an hour long final one on one scenes between Alain Moussi and Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, a.k.a. the Moutain from Game of Thrones. This is arguably one of the most terrific one on one fighting scenes that I have recently watched. To wrap it all up, Kickboxer: Retaliation is not a perfect movie but it is more than satisfying and if you are a fan of the quality martial arts actioners, this one won't dissapoint you.
