Movie Reviews of Only the Strong
Movie Review: Beautiful but Deadly...
Summary: 4 Stars
'Gymkata' meets 'Breakin' meets 'Desperate Minds'....OK, maybe not that simple a pitch! This is a martial arts film with a real message for young people, that remarkably holds up to the test of time--my sons, who are eleven, thought the movie was 'TIGHT' & 'SWEET'(lingo that apparently has also stood the test of time). The Afro-Brazilian martial art capoeira is featured, and Marc Dacascos does a respectable job of honoring the spirit of this beautiful but deadly art that was developed by slaves in Brasil.

Summary of Only the Strong
Ex-Special Forces soldier Louis Stevens (Mark Dacascos) returns to Miami to find his former high school overrun by drugs and violence. A master of the Brazilian martial art, capoeira, Stevens pledges to straighten out a dozen of the school's worst students by teaching them this demanding and highly-disciplined fighting style. Slowly, his program begins to work, giving the students new hope and purpose. But the local drug lord, himself a martial arts expert, vows to stop Stevens' positive influence. Now Stevens must fight to save his own life, as well as the lives of his rebellious young students.Action & Adventure DVD Video
