Kickboxer: Retaliation | Rotten Tomatoes (1) John DeFore Hollywood Reporter A stylish and enjoyable fight flick with just enough tongue-in-cheek content to keep us smiling. Jan 26, 2018 Full Review Kickboxer: Retaliation | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Simon Abrams RogerEbert.com A very dumb, and very satisfying throwback to a simpler time when American action films were as predictable as they were formulaic. Rated: 3/4 Jan 26, 2018 Full Review Kickboxer: Retaliation | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Craig D. Lindsey Village Voice A hysterically entertaining train wreck. Jan 25, 2018 Full Review Kickboxer: Retaliation | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Dominic Griffin Spectrum Culture There are smarter and more original action films to watch in the world, but few, trashy or earnest, are this consistently entertaining or brute force in their own honesty. Rated: 3/5 Jul 17, 2019 Full Review Kickboxer: Retaliation | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Ed Travis Cinapse As it progresses, scene after scene in Retaliation are infused with this crazy little thing called "fun", and Moussi feels much more at home than he ever did in the first movie. Nov 2, 2018 Full Review Kickboxer: Retaliation | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Ryan Pollard Starburst This film feels like watching a series of fight sequences that are loosely connected by a wafer thin plot. Rated: 5/10 Mar 6, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

William D Great movie. If you are a fan of the original Kickboxer movie you will love this one. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/07/23 Full Review ES As with the previous entry with Tong Po, played perfectly by Bautista, this is another great action flick. Poor acting at times drags it down, but it is still a remarkably good movie. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/28/23 Full Review tommy n This is over the top and doesn't take itself too serious. But it is FUN!! The action sequences are plentiful and nicely done. HIGHLY recommended for action fans. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Liam D It took everything that didn't work in the last movie and improved on it and cranked up the cheese to 11 Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/22 Full Review Audience Member I thought this movie was great as it included so many real-life fighters from boxing, UFC, and stong-man competitions to make the fight scenes better. Other than the beginning of the movie & how he was captured, I thought the rest was good and the fight scenes even better. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Series of fight sequences that are all around the places &loosely orchestrated. It feels more like a scenic tour than a good action movie, fine for killing time but waste for much talents involved. Really expecting more... Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
