“Kickboxer: Retaliation” (*** out of four) was a proficient sequel to the “Kickboxer” reboot about the continuing adventures of Kurt Sloane (Alan Moussi) who is forced to return to Thailand by a corrupt millionaire businessman (Christopher Lambert) and face a death-defying MMA match and has to once again turn to his former mentor (Jean Claude Van Damme) for training in what may be the fight of his life. Packed with the expected fistfights and hand-to-hand combat and makes good use of its supporting cast (including Mike Tyson in a key role) and is very well-shot on Thailand locations. No classic but is far better than any of the original “Kickboxer” movies from the ’80’s.
