Triple Threat

I thought it could be the best film but it's not dumbest story ever. Ruined all incredible casts.

If I downloaded a movie from the Bahamas, does this make me a Pirate of the Caribbean? Because this pirate's film didn't have sub-titles for the non-English parts... aaaaaarrrrg!

I spent most of the film's running time hoping that these famous martial art pros get to work together again in a film worthy of their talents, instead of this ridiculous script that had more plot issues and was more predictable than a soft porn film. A 5th grader could've written a better story that made actual sense.

The fight choreography was excellent, especially towards the end, but also limited with the screenplay that needed work from its muddled narrative about criss-crossing allegiances, noble billionaires, shadowy criminal enterprises, and one guy out for vengeance that had dozens of opportunities from the get-go, but instead risked and/or allowed civilians to die before the obvious end result.

Don't see it for the plot, see it for the fight scenes... these guys all deserve a better story. It's a very generous 6/10 from me - solely for the all star cast and their multiple martial-arts discipline fight scenes.

I totally get people who are dissapointed in this. If you take the talent at hand, you'd imagine something more spectacular overall. And it's not just the very predictable story, I was expecting that. But cliches get boring fast and the fight scenes are good, but that is not enough to elevate it to a level that would make this a classic, which the cast would be deserving of.

Dialog is kind of wooden most of the time too (though there are some noteable and great exceptions, some may go over your head, since it is only 50 % in english, did not do a count, so that is estimate of course), so beware of that too. If you are just here for the action you will be mostly satisfied though, so I guess primary objective achieved

With a cast like this, I was expecting The Raid, Ong Bak, Boyka or The Night Comes for Us quality.

My advice is don't build your hopes up.

I can look past awful dialogue and ridiculous situations if the action is good but theres nowhere near enough to keep you distracted from what is, a bad movie.

Triple Threat features some of the greatest martial arts actors of the past and present decade like Tony Jaa, Scott Adkins, Iko Uwais, and Michael Jai White. All of them showcasing their trademark martial arts skills on the big screen.

Unfortunately, this movie doesn't live up to it's ensemble hype. There was a lack of character development, the plot was paper-thin and inconsequential, and the chemistry of the three main leads was tenuous, although that's probably due to the language barrier and cultural differences between them. Tony Jaa, Tiger Hu Chen, and Iko Uwais are at their best when they're doing films for their respective national markets.
