great fight sequences, clumsy acting by the lead, and the most overdramatic and drawn-out death scene/ending since Cyrano de Bergerac.
i agree with other reviewers who say the last 15 minutes of Fatal Contact needed help.
if you've read Bernard Malamud's The Natural (yes, it was made into the baseball movie starring Robert Redford) - this is the cinematic equivalent. if you haven't read it, let's just say the book's end is not the way the movie ends...

For me Fatal Contact started out with a lot of promise. The basic plot revolves around a performer who gets drawn into the seedy world of underground fighting. Not incredibly original, but like I said... it had promise. Throughout the film the main character hangs out with his girlfriend and this irritating homeless guy who works for the gangsters who run the fights. Of course, surprise, surprise, the irritating guy turns out to be a kung fu master himself. Wow! I didn't see that coming. (That's ... Read More

For those of you who are not familiar with this works, Jacky Wu is the up-and-coming martials star who is self proclaiming to be the next Jet Li.

His acting is well versed and his fluidity in martial arts styles ... Read More

Anyone familiar with East Asian cinema knows that Bruce Lee is like some kind of revered God. Yes, he had great influence in many ways, but we need to stop lying to ourselves when thinking that his movies were any good - they weren't. With the exception of a few good martial arts maneuvers, his films are beyond awful. Horrible plot lines, horrible dialogue, horrible characters, horrible humor - and in many cases - subpar, repetitive, and boring action scenes.
Fast forward to the present: ... Read More

I was impressed with this film due to the outstanding fight scenes and a decent story line that had some a twist to it, I have seen the main character in other films where he dilivered some great fight sequences. In some ways this movie is like the Protecter yet this movie has an emotional side to it, I rate this film a 5 star because it gave me what I'm looking for in a martial arts film action, story and characters.
