Ratings and reviews

Kickboxer's one of those films that probably gets a bit of stick for naff acting, silly plot, goofs etc etc. But, it is a silly martial arts flick. It does have bad acting...but...it's just one of the best of the bunch. JCVD is perfectly cast and the main baddy is brilliant. I love it!!

I love van damme films espacillaly this one my mum showed me it i enjoyed it also it is a whole lot better than kickboxer vengance

Van damme I mean this movie is a legend an so is he you can't get any better 👌
