Kill and Kill Again Audience Reviews

Micransix Crappy film
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
A That kick was no where near the target. Horrible camera angle.Imported from what seems to be an island is not impressive. It's an island, everything is imported.This guy looks like Chachi."Fuel from potatoes" sounds hilarious.Mind control potato extract! Diabolical! I quit! vs I fired you! stupid argument. Take the firing! You'll get severance.Cheap mud hug gag.Sweeping his van hovel.That was the slowest back-hand chop of all time.Needless pushing a woman aside. Real nice.Carrot Top's Southern aunt.That helicopter looks like a go-cart.There it is. The whole reason I heard about this movie a character named Hot Dog.You know Kandy is going to sneak along.How observant. She was sitting there all along.I'd love to see a spin-off... Hot Dog and The Fly.Supervised recreational activity... alternating days... is this gym class? Which way to the bar (fight)? What bar keeps all those lit candles? That don't mix with drunk fools.This guy is his horrible. A few sweet lines and a lick on her shoulder and she's all over you. Yick.Off potatoes forever! Don't say it Hot Dog! That means no more fries!! So far I haven't seen anyone killed let alone killed a second time.The dreaded #4 outhouse.Action floor roll.Marduk has a horrible fake beard.A sudden change of background during a conversation.I expected Hot Dog to be more of a show off.A kick-up instead of a kip-up.No wasted movement huh? He just did multiple meaningless flips.Hold the stem or you'll warm the wine! Power Blue T-Shirt Gang attack!!!!!
Woodyanders Ace martial artist Steve Chase (a solid and charismatic performance by James Ryan) rounds up a crack team of rough'n'ready karate experts in order to rescue scientist Dr. Horatio Kane (John Ramsbottom) from the clutches of evil billionaire Marduk (broadly played by Michael Mayer, who sports an uproariously obvious fake beard).Director Ivan Hall, working from a blithely silly script by John Crowther, keeps the entertaining story moving along at a snappy pace, maintains an engaging lighthearted tone throughout, stages the lively chopsocky fights with rip-roaring flair (a rowdy barroom brawl rates as a definite rousing highlight), and tops everything off with amusing touches of campy humor. The neat array of colorful characters adds considerably to this picture's infectiously kitschy appeal: Anneline Kriel provides delicious eye candy as foxy blonde babe Kandy Kane, Ken Gampu cuts an imposing figure as amiable behemoth Gorilla, Marloe Scott Wilson almost steals the whole show with her gut-busting portrayal of Marduk's sassy pink-haired main hench wench Minerva, Bill Flynn supplies affable comic relief as lovable slob Hotdog, Stan Schmidt spouts a lot of mystical mumbo jumbo hogwash as the enigmatic The Fly (he levitates and scales high-rise building with no difficulty whatsoever), Norman Robinson contributes a likable turn as hillbilly bruiser Gypsy Billy, and Eddie Dorie makes for a suitably menacing flunky as hulking brute Optimus. The funky-pulsating score hits the get-down groovy spot. A really fun flick.
taikrige Yes Hi "Kill Or be Killed." - Sorry to only answer your posting now, but I've only recently become aware of all this 'stuff' on "Kill and Kill Again," on which I was the cinematographer and helped get the martial artists for the movie, since i knew them all.... You are right. A lot of people preferred the first film also with James Ryan as Steve Chase in "Kill and Kill Again", but I must tell you that the box-office figures tell a very different story...in fact, depending on how old you are, you might remember a film made by Bo Derek's husband John Derek called "10" ...a 'tits and bums' vehicle to show off the many charms of his lovely wife that did very well at the box-office and was released the same year as "Kill and Kill Again'. Well, believe it or not, "Kill and Kill Again" made more money than "10". Much more money....I have the figures somewhere......Anyhow both these movies have gone into the memories and archives of "Chop Suie' or karate pot-boilers.....One of the many things I admire about James Ryan is that after these two big successes for him in the USA, he was offered many more roles like that and could of happily gone on making them ad nauseum, going for the money and fame. But he declined....went back to South Africa to become one of SA's best male leads in theater and TV /cinema...a 'big up' for Steve Chase ........ tai krige sasc.
sangityman This film is on the borderline of being so bad that it is almost worth watching, if only just to laugh at it. It attempts to be a comedy with many one-liners that fall completely flat. The martial arts choreography is stiff and extremely staged looking. The story is just plain ridiculous. The star shows some potential given the right material, but there is very little of that for him to work with. A handful of skillfully executed karate techniques are about the only thing this film has going for it.
