The budget for this movie was literally 75k. I don't think a 100 million dollar budget can produce the music , ambience , and sheer awesome of this movie today!!!
Because they had directors, writers, and actors who cared about the art and craft. And the earlier music producers were second to none on those movie soundtracks
I was 6 years old watching this on tape at my aunts house. I was soo inspired that I took on a life long martial arts & body building. Thank you so much Van Damme 😊🙏🏼💪🏼
I was in Middle School when this came out, must have watched it 100s of times, maybe even more. Inspired me too! In my 40s now and still training. Just wish I hadn't slacked on training from 27 to 37, was hard to start again. Thankfully, Bloodsport is still inspiring!!
yeah... but it's important to know that we humans did not become top of the food chain coz of our physical capabilities... on the contrary, it's our brain power and the ability to create tools to do the fighting for us that did. Bruce Lee might look very intimidating and he would win in some underground 1 on 1 competition... but he's not a killer... put him in the battlefield and he would be dead in 3 hours.
The camera angles, cuts, the pacing, are truly amazing, that is how a martial arts movie should be done, not the constant cutting every second, crazy shaking that is done nowadays.
Yeah, this here is the old style, same to Jackie Chan. Today, in all these MARVEL-movies etc., Batman and whatever, they shake around to hide that the actors have no clue what they are doing.
Didn't realize how low key racist this movie was. They made Black guys stupid like they can't fight. But in real life they rule the fighting world. Lol
@@jamesonbrown7123 You're a fucking idiot...you only see racism against blacks and can't see racism anywhere else? It's all throughout the movie against every race...is it even "racism"?...Jesus H Christ
My favorite is the Muay Thai fighter. What a beast. And the only style of fighting represented that actually has a chance of working against someone who knows how to box.
daniel perez Back then there was actually way more true western martial artists with better skills that tried to break in Hollywood. However many of their acting ability was very poor and no charisma. Propaganda from critics gives jcvd and seagal a bad name. Truth be told though, there is a reason why they were able to break into mainstream as opposed to everyone else. I always tell people imagine someone else like a don the dragon or billy blanks as Frank dux. It no longer would be the same movie.
Not to forget this were real skills and not the special effects they use nowadays.. it looks all fake nowadays while in the '80 and '90 it was so realistic and natural..
Van Damme was the main actor of Bloodsport, which is in my opinion the greatest martial arts film ever made (also with great soundtrack by any measure, great scenes and a lot of humor and sad and happy moments) I think he was the right guy for the film-though I don't think that any other film he made afterwards was unique or even good (and back in the early 90's I watched almost everything he made).
Would have been interesting to see the fighters in that movie actually go at it, most of them were dancers etc because of the budget apparently(the quick fight montage), Bolo Yeung would have destroyed everyone in that movie lol
The movie's total bullshit, and Frank Dux is a pathological liar, but I guess we all believed it for a while. far too much cocaine was being sniffed in the 80's.
John O'Neill Some of the other CREWS about the area were for Mortal Kombat, Me and my Pals where Street Fighter kids. But I know what you mean bro. 🖒hehehe
@@wesleywarsmith1113 Let's be honest, the Street Fighter movie was pretty terrible! Which, to a kid who was a huge fan of the game was massively disappointing!
Bolo was more than just an action villain. He could actually act with his facial expressions and be menacing just by the way he looked
4 роки тому+1
Van Damme's best films all had Bolo in them as the main baddy, and for good reason. The speed that man had for his size is insane. You felt every punch he threw.
FYI. In real life he is actually a very nice guy. Usually the best villain is a nice guy. Another example is Richard Tyson in Kindergarden Cop. All the Kids had really problems to act scared in the scenes with him, because he is really a nice guy. Same goes with Bolo.
Van Damme in his prime, his screen presence was like no other, he had the look, he had the moves, he was smooth, but deadly, he had it all Hollywood was ready to eat him up, but his cocaine addiction ruined his career, I think off all the great movies he didn't make that he would have made if he just had stayed clean and didn't get addicted to drugs, his movie resume would be so much more, I love all his movies in his early career when he was with Golan Globus making Cyborg, Bloodsport and Kickboxer, those where the movies that shot him to fame, then later on he did Universal Solider, Hard Target and Death Warrant a three picture deal with Columbia would have made him the king of Hollywood but he wanted to much money and the studio said forget about it. Still his movie list is awesome, Timecop, Replicant, Double Impact, Double Team and so many others. He is still my idol and I'm in my mid 30's and grew up watching him in Cyborg, Double Impact and Universal Solider.
I totally agree my man. Great post. In my mid 30”s as well and he was an still is my idol too. It is to bad about the addiction issues he faced which I didn’t even know about until a couple years ago.
there one movie JVD DIRECTED " QUEST " FAILED COMPARISON TO BLOODSPORT 1989 FAILED MOVIE OF JVD , BUT ANOTHER MOVIE SCOTT ADKINS " BOYKA " HAS SAME JVD BLOODSPORT APPEAL!
The under-rated thing about "Bloodsport" was how well-directed it was. Newt Arnold had been an assistant director for Godfather II and other movies, going back decades. Even if you don't like martial arts, it's very professional. Van Damme would have been smart to make more movies with him.
Van Damme's fight wailing made him unique and distinctive in this film. Whenever someone hears a kungfu wail, everyone thinks, van damme, it added emotion and suspense to the fight scenes, especially the final fight against Bolo when hes blinded by chalk.
The “Aaaaaaaaaaggghhh” noises Van does after delivering a particularly effective strike accompanied by the pop eyed manic expression last longer than the actual fight.
Ya know, in all the interview transcripts I've ever read of his, they never mention the whole scream/quick edit/10 minute sequence each time he does it 😆
80s and 90s were beautiful time. less resources back then but more time with less distraction to perfect whatever you was good at and more privacy. they werethe last eras that produced an abundance of individual character
A film that defined what my own hopes and dreams would as an aspiring martial artist. I'm not even sure that Van Damme himself knew the profound impact that this film would have on so many people. Even if Frank Dux turned out to be a fraud. JCVD is the real Frank Dux!!!
@@danieleantoniopomi2262 everything dux claimed to have been or done turned out to be. ....shall we say, less than accurate. The one Hollywood martial arts guys more still of shit than Steven Segal.
This movie used to be on Pluto TV all the time back in 2020. I watched it every single time I saw that it was on. I miss those days. Come on, Pluto TV. Bring back Bloodsport!
When I was a kid, this was my most favourite movie , I am from Russia (born in the USSR), after watching this movie I told myself, someday i should go to Hong Kong. Now I live in Shenzhen and see Hong Kong every night from the bank opposite. This movie totally changed my life :)
You’ll never get a movie now with these memories. Even the music when he fights paco and they are kicking each other and the beat of the music is breathing alongside you. It’s as if we’re in Hong Kong too. Absolutely underrated. One of my favourites along with kickboxer, commando, predator, top gun, AWOL
yup. I dont think we will ever see a movie like this ever again honestly. I think current culture has ruined and taken away a lot of creative things like this. People just get too offended so easily now. Back then no one cared. Now everyone whines about everything online
@@Leynx-Et-Fenrir true lol so the game was probably aiming to be like bloodsports. But what did the makers of the street fighter movie aim at 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ one of those franchises where the animated movies are way better then the real movies
Hands down the best Van Damme movie that was EVER made, and to say this movie is a masterpiece would be a huge understatement, because it’s a fucking legend. ⚔️💪🏻⚔️
Lionheart is better to my opinion in term of fight and story line is much deeper in that movie van damme show that he can act caractely also but still this is in top 5 defenetly i agree

Dont you mean 750k? With 75k even at that time you cant produce a extreme low budget movie
@@RobeGarcia-df6ks In reality it's 3x that, Bloodsport is actually reported as having been made on about a 2 mil budget
Because they had directors, writers, and actors who cared about the art and craft. And the earlier music producers were second to none on those movie soundtracks
Unforgetable film, for everyone who was teen in the late 80's or (and in my case) the early 90's.
❤❤❤
Greetings my friend
True
And now the fights in this movie seem bullshit. Cuz he basically 1 taps everyone and wins
Yeah!! Good times!!
Frank Dux in reality is full of shit, but damn if his bullshit did not make for one hell of a Van Damme movie xD

I watched this movie on TNT or TBS or USA at least once a week in the late 90's. Best martial arts movie ever.
In 100 years time people will still be watching the Van Damme roundhouse kick.
Jumping spinning outside crescent kick. Like a helicopter.
If I make it to 100, I'll come back and comment.
I love how he moves. so fluent and gracefully. Never gets old.

Gotta admire the one guy who tanked all JCVD's shots and still remained standing until the punch to the privates.
The soundtrack by Paul Hertzog is the icing on the cake. Gave this movie a special atmosphere. Especially "The Second Day" is so uplifting.

Greatest fighting movie ever
After Enter the Dragon
Hard label anything as greatest ever, but it’s definitely my favorite. Soundtrack is dope af too
Lionheart is better to my opinion in term of fight and story line is much deeper in that movie van damme show that he can act caractely also but still this is in top 5 defenetly i agree
Van Damme has the best kicks in cinema history
Ayks Bruce Lee faster, but Van Damme had beautiful kicks
Simon Rhee might have something to say about that.
Chuck Norris' unnecessary spinning stuff is kinda funny.
ua-cam.com/video/yQYyXBJJfTM/v-deo.html
The guy on the roof is up there too!
No way, Bruce lee was faster, he will always be the best
Bloodsport and Lionheart. Two of Van Damme's greatest and truest imo.
Still prefer cyborg. But they are all great
I saw this in the theater. Damn, that was a long time ago lol.
He had it all. Looks,body, brilamt martial artist loved him back in them times.
That roundhouse at the end is stuff of beauty.
I really love this movie I always picture myself while fighting in the tournament.
Kids these days watch tiktok
Kids of the 90s watched Blood sport
You know it kids of the 90’s where watching blood sport ,kickboxer etc the good stuff not tiktok etc the good old days
