Max Havoc: Curse of the Dragon

In this straight-to-DVD action film, ex-kickboxer Max Havoc is pulled back into his fighting ways when he encounters a gang in Guam, leading him to team up with an art dealer and her sister to flee from the yakuza clan that's trying to retrieve a valuable jade dragon statue. With its planned sequel and TV series aspirations, "Max Havoc: Curse of the Dragon" delivered on its promise of explosive action, but not without criticism for its clichéd portrayal of Guam and lackluster plot. The film's European market appeal was evident in its fight choreography, which also earned praise from some critics as a redeeming quality amidst the chaos.
