Best of the Best

Just making it into the cult martial arts of the 1980's, Best of the Best is an action film comprising of all the elements the cold war and the 80's require.

Plot: Eric Roberts (Julia's much less talented brother) is a retired taekwondo dude, with a young son, who decides to have another crack at this beat-em-up stuff and joins the USA National side to fight Team Korea. That'd be fine, but Roberts has a gammy shoulder, there's a red-neck fella (Chris Penn-Reservoir Dogs), an angry, out for revenge for my brothers death fella, a buddhist and a tough fella from 'the streets'.

You know you want to watch this.

Don't get me wrong, it wouldn't be listed here if there weren't any redeaming features...er, er, er, oh yes!!!! It's got Darth Vader in it!

Gross: $1,700,000

Fun Fact: Small appearance by the maniacal nurse herself, Louise Fletcher (One Flew Over The Cukoo's Nest). Former UFC champ-Chuck Liddell says this is his favourite fightin' film.
