It's a film that can be enjoyed for its quirks and flaws, making it a unique viewing experience, albeit not necessarily for its cinematic excellence.

If you're in the mood for goofiness, "Revenge of the Gweilo" is worth a watch. It certainly cheered me right up!

Here, Nathan Hill takes us on a rampage fueled by revenge after his fiancée meets a tragic fate at the hands of the Asian mafia.

The film hilariously mocks all the Hong Kong martial arts films of the 80s. The Gweilo, or "white devil," is a Caucasian drawn into a Chinatown Triad adventure filled with the kinds of mishaps and brawls you'd expect from a cheesy B-grade kung fu movie! Think Bruce-sploitation! With subtle nods to the video game 'Street Fighter 2' and Bruce Lee's 'Game of Death.'

The characters are fun, and female characters have sex appeal. Nathan Hill is living out his fantasies on film, and we're here for it!

"Revenge of the Gweilo" mixes action, quirkiness, and unexpected laughs, making it the perfect pick for indie film lovers (guilty as charged!) looking for something different.

Paying loving tribute to 70s, 80s and 90s kung-fu movies, even opening the film paying homeage to 'Bruce Lee: His Last Days', 'Revenge of tne Gwelio' is everything fans of the genre could want.

With nods to movies such as 'Kill Bill', 'Showdown in Little Tokyo', the filmography of Van Damme and even to the Capcom classic 'Street Fighter 2', 'Revenge of the Gwelio' is a fun action film made by someone with a true love and knowledge for the genre.

Watch Tritia DeViSha live her best villain life and even see a cameo from legendary Australian actor, Andy McPhee.

Have fun with this and always remember cool guys don't look at explosions...

Beautiful Asian women, and great travelogue style scenery. But this low budget film has long sequences of driving, sitting, etc.; to fill up an hour and a half. It has lots of martial arts; but the scenes looked like white belts learning moves. Maybe worth watching, I guess; but don't expect much. Seen on Tubi, the free streaming site; which now has live TV.

Right, well with a title such as "Revenge of the Gweilo", I knew that this was going to be an oddball. I just had no idea how much of an oddball it would turn out to be.

This movie is bad. Phenomenally bad. But wait, let me just tell that the movie is so bad that it was hilarious to watch and it was so entertaining because of its campiness and it cheesy dialogue. Actually, "Revenge of the Gweilo" has the potential to become a classic among bad movies.

The storyline told in "Revenge of the Gweilo" is pretty straightforward. An ex-cop's fiancée is killed by a gang, and he sets out to take revenge all by himself. Yup, that was essentially it.

Now, the movie has a lot of things going on, all of which is so phenomenally bad that it was so strangely entertaining and enjoyable. First of all, the dialogue in the movie. Wow, just wow. It was so corny that you can't help but laugh and have your toes curling. Better yet, most of the dialogue delivered by the Asian cast was done with so thick accents that it was just downright stereotypical. Hilarious!

This being a martial arts movie - of sorts - of course you have fighting and martial arts in the movie. Now, I use this phrase lightly; very lightly. Because the fighting and action sequences in the movie were so atrocious that you have to watch it to believe it. They were so horribly executed and delivered on the screen that it was material for laughs for years to come. Not for a split second does this look like actual fighting. And the strange obsession with showing the same sequence two to four times but from different angles, why? Dear God, why?

The characters in the movie were corny, oh so corny. From the white lead actor with the beginning beer gut passing as an ex-cop with wicked martial arts skills, right... To the stereotypical villain dressed in fetish sex outfits, and performing her dialogue as if she had been interning with Dr. Frank-N-Furter (from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show"), and the villanous henchmen, whom were supposed to pass as sexy vixens in fetish outfits too. Good God, it was horrible. But again, it was so bad that it was morbidly enjoyable.

And the music score in the movie, wow. Just wow. It was something taken straight out of an 1980's computer game, full of synthesizers and dance beats. Very unfitting for the movie, but again adding a layer of goofiness and stupidity to the movie that was just wonderful.

"Revenge of the Gweilo" is listed as an action thriller. Right. Yeah, that will be the day. This was a spoof. A goofy, campy comedy at best. Sure, they were gunning and aiming for action and thriller, but they missed by several hundred yards.

Believe you me, "Revenge of the Gweilo" is so bad that it is a work of pure genius. I ended up loving this movie, and was laughing good and well throughout the course of the hour and a half of pure hilarious goofy stupidity, abysmal dialogue, questionable acting and horrible martial arts.

You need to watch this movie, trust me. The movie is so bad that watching it once is definitely not enough. This is going to be a source of amusement for years to come.
