I have been searching high and low for a movie that could top 'Gymkata' as the world's worst martial arts film. I've seen all the Bruce Lee ripoff movies with the infamous Bruce Li as his wannabe protégé. They are amusing at worst. I've seen 'No Retreat, No Surrender' dozens of times, for a good reason - it makes me laugh! That is seriously one of the funniest movies I have ever seen; the fact that it was unintentionally funny is beyond the point. It is still enjoyable.
There is no redeeming factor in 'Redbelt' – none. The plot is as discombobulated as a basketball game being played by a bunch of paraplegics with a bowling ball. I still cannot for the life of me figure out the plot. The acting is absolutely atrocious. And where were the martial arts? Isn't the point of a martial arts film to have scenes with *gasp* martial arts? That's akin to watching a Rambo film with no gun battles. The only thing worth watching in this film is the beautiful Alice Braga. Unfortunately, even if she had a scene where the film turns into hardcore porn would not have even remotely helped this abomination.
Oh, and for all of the "you don't get it" pseudo-intellectual lib-tards out there yes, I DO get it. The movie SUCKS. I get it. It grossed a laughable $2,451,459 in the United States and Canada. Hell, they cannot even spell the title right! Enough said.
Skip this film and rent one of the many Bruce Lee knockoffs, as they are much more entertaining.
