Product Description: A raised-in-japan supercop kicks into high gear when the mobsters who killed his parents make a play for power. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 02/03/2004 Starring: Dolph Lundgren Brandon Lee Run time: 78 minutes Rating: R Director: Mark L. Lester
Amazon.com: Showdown in Little Tokyo is a 1991 martial arts action-comedy that, in pitting Dolph Lundgren and Brandon Lee as L.A. cops against Japanese drug dealers, plays like a B-movie Tango and Cash or Lethal Weapon 2 (both released just two years before). Between career highs in Rocky IV (1985) and Universal Soldier (1992), Lundgren looked as if he might make it big at the box office, and clearly wanting to be the new Schwarzenegger he is here directed by Mark L Lester, who had earlier helmed Ah-nold's Commando (1985). In the event both actor and director headed for straight-to-video territory, while Lee (Bruce's son) went on to The Crow. The 75-minute running time suggests the studio lost confidence and seriously cut the movie though, as the space between the action is filled with nothing but cringe-inducing dialogue, thriller clichés, and Lundgren "romancing" Tia Carrere, it still makes sense. Basing its title on John Carpenter's 1986 fantasy-comedy Big Trouble in Little China and anticipating Rush Hour (1998), Showdown in Little Tokyo alternates between crude tongue-in-cheek moments and action so ludicrous it's unintentionally hilarious . A camp disaster that simply defies belief, this is so-bad-it's-good entertainment. --Gary S. Dalkin

I'm a huge fan of Bruce Lee and his son Brandon Lee. He's very good in this movie. I also like dolph. This movie has plenty of action. You could just tell that Brandon Lee was going to be a big star like his dad. Unfortunately, both of them lost their lives too young.
If you like fun, martial movies, this is one of the best.

Talk about a culture-clash. A white American male raised in the samurai ways in Japan, and an adopted Japanese-American male trained in the Californian ways are matched up in the LAPD to bring down the source of a new and deadly drug. Forced to work together,Chris Kenner teaches Johnny Murata about the heritage he scoffs at while Johnny offers quirky remarks and comic timing. Chris soon realizes that the man who killed his parents is the man spreading the killer drug, and both set out on revenge. ... Read More

I kinda loved this movie in the 80s for the martial arts scenes as it all new to me back in the 80s.Obviously, if you watch it now, fights are just slow and cheesy.But well, its good entertainment.
This DVD has no subtitles and basically just the movie.
I wont comment much of the movie because it is a straight forward martial arts movie.I was hoping I could get to see some behind the scenes or deleted scenes if any.
However, the picture quality is pretty vivid ... Read More

I saw this movie on skinamax and fell asleep before I finshed watching it, so I came on here and picked it up for 60 cents.
I can't complain about it for what I paid. It's basically Drago (Rocky 4) vs Tsung (Mortal Kombat 1). That pretty much sums up the whole plot. It's a typical guy movie and it shows a very nice full frontal of Tia Carrere ;)
It's a good movie, check it out.

Macho B-movie madness at its sublime best, this crazy action quickie is about as brain dead as you can get: wooden acting, a terrible story and a script that truly sucks. But with all the mindless violence who really cares. Gun battles, martial arts, Samurai sword slashing and gory deaths are the order of the day, not to mention plenty of beautiful ladies treated like playthings and shedding clothes at every opportunity. Despite the women and guns, there is some kind of story: Kenner (Lundgren) is on ... Read More
