Rating: Summary: Kiddie Movie Review: OK, what's the words? "Stay away from this movie". It failed in a complete translation from the video game. The video game series was much better and much more hardcore and more realistic fighting. Fist of all, if you are going to cast a member from Party of 5 in a so called 'action' movie, then you as a producer or casting person better fire yourself forever. Not retire, fire yourself. There is little martial arts for me and my fellow martial arts fans to even try to enjoy. Mark Dacascos is such a talented martial artist and this film does not let him reach his full potential (luckily for us there is the movie 'Drive' - there is a god). The cover is a total sell out. The villains on the back are not all used, oh sure they are used but some are only just in the background. Double Dragon, lots of potential, yet the Power Rangers movie is better than this. That's sad. Well we all have movies to laugh about....I guess...just don't bother. The animated series was better I must add.
Rating: Summary: 'Double' Delight! Review: Remember that big, fat guy on steroids? That was devastating. "Double Dragon" was a miserable failure at the box office but proved itself to be momentous to me. Based on the video game, two brothers (who can't possibly be brothers, genetically) fight an evil wannabe from getting the second half of a mystical medallion. The other half is in their mentor's hands. That's the plot, now let me tell you about the funny stuff. Fat boy was pretty clever with the ugly and homely joke. Poking at ya clown boy! Look at my arse, it's so big (Alyssa Milano's asset). Julia Nickson was cheated and was the best thing that happened to this movie. Since she did say I was gorgeous and I am now forever a fan of hers. Robert Patrick is cool dude, nice streaks in your hair, you're so pretty. Now, that I think of it, I really disliked this movie.
Rating: Summary: Horrible Review: This is a horribly bad movie. I was a big fan of the video game, and I wanted to see this, but when I watched it, I found out it had little to do with the game. This is worse than the mario bros. movie, which wasn't that good either. Like I said before, don't bother with this movie.
Rating: Summary: THIS MOVIE IS AWESOME DUDES! Review: THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST AWESOME MOVIES I HAVE SEEN IN MY LIFE. IT IS TOO COOL. "DOUBLE DRAGON" BEATS OUT "SUPER MARIO BROTHERS", "STREET FIGHTER", "MORTAL KOMBAT", "MORTAL KOMBAT: ANNIHILATION", AND DEFINETELY "POKEMON: THE FIRST MOVIE". YOU PEOPLE WHO GAVE THIS MOVIE BAD REVIEWS SHOULD BE ASHAMED. THIS MOVIE IS JUST TOO COOL. I LOVE IT. TOO BAD THEY CAN'T MAKE A SEQUEL. I RECCOMEND THIS MOVIE TO ANYONE, EVEN THE NON VIDEO-GAME FAN.
Rating: Summary: TERRIBLE Review: This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen in my whole life! Well I didn't actually see it - I watched 20 mins and I just couldn't stand it anymore! It's THAT bad!
Rating: Summary: this is aweful Review: this is the worst movie i ever saw!
Rating: Summary: Double Dragon Review Review: This movie isn't as bad as people say it is. I found some of the phrases annoying in it, but the overall script was decent. The major charactors were well acted. The constant looking at each other and screaming got annoying. The Lee brothers were well acted, although I wouldn't have guess Scott Wolf as a martial arts fighter. Alyssa Milano was just plan hot. The movie was ok I recommend you see this movie.
Rating: Summary: TERRIBLE Review: This movie was very boring. It had terrible acting. I was excited to watch it for the first time cz I loved the cartoon show but the movie messed everything up.

Rating: Summary: Only like %5 of this movie is similiar to the game. Review: Watching this film and other video-game to movie translations makes me think that the producers intended to make this film stupid. This movie is tore up from the floor up. I can't even express, in mere words, how HORRIBLE "Double Dragon" is! It seems like the producers main goal was to piss video-game fans off. The Jimmy and Billy Lee of the game are much more buffed out and Jimmy is supposed to have blonde hair. Also, they are twin brothers as far as I know but in the movie one is 19 and the other is 17. And look at the Shadow Master. Eeeaagh! Just about everything in this movie is changed, terribly. What makes the reputation of video-game to movie translations even worse is the fact that they seem like they will never learn from their mistakes. Movies like "Street Fighter:The (live-action) Movie"(very disappointing), "Mortal Kombat:The Movie"(pretty good), "Mortal Kombat:Annihilation"(sloppy), and "Mario Brothers"(pathetic) had great potential, but all four did not prove that their potential could be fulfilled. I beleve they could have been excellent if they were made by the right people. I wouldn't be suprised if they made an even worse sequel to "Double Dragon." If anybody wants to see a martial arts movie, starring Mark Dacascos, they should check out "Drive".
