Best of the Best 3 (1995)

Rate: 7
Viewed: 4/13

4/13: Direct-to-video or not, Best of the Best 3 is a damn entertaining action flick.

The low expectations probably helped the most. Compared to the second part, the plot is more compelling to follow. The last twenty minutes, which is a reminiscent of Cobra and Tango & Cash, is weak, but it doesn't take away the positive attributes.

Although Eric Roberts and Simon Rhee are sorely missed, Phillip Rhee does a great job of putting the film on his back from start to finish. Every time I see a scene of him performing martial arts, all I can think is this is the guy who defeated the world champion Dae Han.

In short, Tommy can kick everybody's butt. That's why I find it hard to believe Donnie Hanson would be able to hold his ground against him. The ending is impossible. All those guns sported by the criminals are enough to take Tommy down, regardless of the fight outcome with Donnie.

All in all, Best of the Best 3 is a solid action picture.
