In this martial arts actioner, a kickboxer's life goes into the gutter after he accidentally kills an opponent during an important bout. Devastated, the distraught fighter becomes a street bum until his brother's murder by a drug-lord rouses him into a frenzy for revenge. Kickboxer Johnny Rider's (Dale "Apollo" Cook) target is narcotic kingpin Rod Sparks (Nick Hill). In order to bring him down, Johnny joins Sparks' organization as a goon. His plans to get near Sparks and destroy him, however, are nearly destroyed when dogged detective Bill Williams (Ron Hall), himself a kickboxer and the brother of the man Johnny accidentally killed, enters the scenario. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

The title of this PG-rated actioner refers to the one-two punch packed by a pair of pre-teen kickboxers. Ten-year-old martial-arts expert Jimmy (Lorne Bernfield) and his equally self-reliant 13-year-old sister Lisa (Crystal Summer) learn their craft at the knee (or foot) of their father, real life kick-boxing champ Dale "Apollo" Cook. The kids' skills come in handy when they set out to rescue a kidnapped scientist. The last named character is played by Linda Blair. Obviously inspired by the Three Ninjas films, Double Blast lives up to its title. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

A trigger happy hunter shows callous disregard for humans and animals as he hunts for big game in the African wilds. George Michael produced, directed, wrote and starred in this feature which has several good documentary shots of exotic wildlife. The bloodthirsty hunter disregards all to satisfy his murderous marauding. Michael has made good use of his first hand experience of living and hunting in the African jungles. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide
