Editorial Review: Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 09/21/1999 Night of the Warrior Reviews: GREAT FILM!!  2009-11-18 - This is a great movie!..Acting is pretty good and Kathleen Kinmont looks great in this
Get to see a side of Lorenzo not typically seen in all of his other movies..
A must see for any Lamas or Kinmont fan!
[2.5] night of the so-so  2007-09-11 - I'm not a huge fan of Lorenzo Lamas, but I purchased this movie since it's focus is around illegal underground fighting. That end up being a dissapointment since there were only two underground fights in the film. There was little other action throughout, and the story treads along similar ground that other martial arts films use. Overall, this was an ok film that ended up being a pretty boring watch.
For what there is, the acting could have been far worse. Lamas doesn't do too bad a job, but he always seems too tiresome when he acts in his films, and its no different here. Kathleen Kinmont is his love interest in the film, the same girl who seems to play his love ineterst in many of his other films such as Final Round and Final Impact. James Lew (Timecop, Perfect Weapon, Showdown) makes a nice appearance as the fighter Miles Keane (Lamas) fights in the end, although the fight wasn't very inspiring and a bit slow paced.
This ends up being a pretty unexciting movie that doesn't give much. For what it is, its ok and the highlight of creativity goes to some interesting musical choices, especially the tunes in the nightclub. The fighting is sparse and weak and the story is nothing you haven't seen before.
A dissapointment to Lorenzo Lamas fans!  2001-05-20 - This movie only had 2 offical fight scenes! And there were some additional "fight scenes" where Lorenzo gets jumped, and one where he goes into this guys night club and beats up a few men. Not incredibly bad storyline, but almost no fighting! Lorenzo doesn't even do his jumping pump roundhouse (a move which he is most notable using in his TV show Renegade). The movie came out one year before his show started, so I guess he was desperate for a role, so he didn't mind starring in this film. Lorenzo plays Miles Keane, a night club owner and photographer. He payed off his loan to the guy who gave it to him by fighting for him. His employer wants him to fight again, he refuses, and then gets framed for murder. Lorenzo has to fight again to save his mom and his girlfriend. This movie only gets one star because Lorenzo Lamas is in it.
An action movie for the intelligent movie goer.  1999-09-18 - This a kickboxer movie with a story line, in - depth character studies and some downright good acting. Throw in some great music numbers for background and you've got a winner. Kathleen Kinmot and Lorenzo Lamas are at their sizzling best.Anthony Geary is someone you love to hate and Arlene Dahl is super as the star lost in the past. All the actors are at their best.
