Showdown in Little Tokyo - 1/5

This movie tries to be so cool and edgy, but just comes off as cheesy and sleazy. It’s unfortunately par for the course for Dolph Lundgren movies of this era, and this one stoops lower in the sleaze category than some of his comparable fare. The action isn’t even good, which for Bruce Lee’s son is downright shameful.

Content warning: female nudity

Closest comparison: It’s like Lethal Weapon by way of The Punisher (1989).

Setting: Buddy Cop
Plot: Buddy Cop
Tone: Buddy Cop

Wayne's World - 3/5

This is a dumb comedy that knows exactly what it is and plays it for laughs with a long, knowing gaze at the audience. There’s no movie beyond the comedy, so don’t go looking for depth here. If this isn’t your style of comedy you’ll hate this movie, but for everyone else there are pretty some memorable moments.

Closest comparison: It’s like A Night at the Roxbury way of Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure.

Setting: Music Industry
Plot: Zero to Hero
Tone: Dumb Comedy
