Review of DOA: Dead or Alive (2006) by George C — 11 Sep 2013
Having the flu allows me to return to some random titles (or crap) in amongst my DVD collection, some of which I have looked at lately include DOA and both Charlies Angels movies. While in some ways I see these as a kinda trilogy (obviously not related), DOA may lack the big A-listers and comedy, but its action, fight sequences, and stars give much more entertainment than Drew Barrymore's ego rides.
HK legend Cory Yuen has given us some amazing work in his career, and taking what he has to work with in DOA he still gives us an entertaining 90 minutes. The girls give it their all, Kane Kosugi and Colin Chou rock as usual, and the overall eye-candy-no-brainer is fun.
Sure, it doesn't make sense, but its based on a game and is still better than a lot of big studio action flicks! Enjoyable...
