you talked about wanting to see what it would look like in the UFC if the fighters used different styles of martial arts. well if you watch UFC 1, 2 or 3 that is what you will see. thanks for your videos and have a great day.
The Government in Japan and other socialist countries might pay a percentage of your medical bills, but your Taxes are a lot higher than in America, so you end up paying for it anyway...
I think one of the reasons that you see speakman with sticks is that Ed Parker, Bruce Lee and Dan Inosanto practiced and/or exchanged skills with each other. Dan Inosanto being quite the American legend within fma at that time I’ve heard he taught the chucks to Bruce Lee , and it’s not far fetched that Inosanto showed to Ed Parker as well.
"The movies back in the 80s were crazy! " Ha ha ha yes they were, real stunts, real fire no CGI. It looks real because it is! It was also about making people go "Woah!"
Even though The Perfect Weapon came out in 1991, it's still looks and feels like a late 80s movie.
A fun martial arts action film that was designed to demonstrate Jeff Speakman's martial arts talent. He still trains students in America to this day and is loved by many.
Wow! Brings back memories. This film had some of the most legendary Asian actors of the era. Sadly, we lost Mako and Professor Tanaka many years ago (Professor Tanaka was in a bunch of stuff, and was also a pro wrestler. Mako fought Bruce Lee in the TV show The Green Hornet, was the wizard in Conan the Barbarian, and Conan the Destroyer with Arnold Schwarzenegger, and also played the teacher in the sweet coming of age film with Chuck Norris, "Sidekicks" among many many others). Many other actors as well that really made a mark and broke down barriers over the years (so many faces from iconic movies and shows, like MASH, Kung Fu (the TV series), Big Trouble in Little China, Showdown in Little Tokyo, etc.)
Your video made me google James Hong (Yung). I am delighted to note that he is still alive and working at 93! He is in Everything Everywhere All At Once, with Michelle Yeoh and Jamie Lee Curtis. I am so excited to see it! Thank you for the delightful hit of nostalgia. Have a great day!
the big henchman's name is Professor Toru Tanaka. he was very popular Jiu-Jitsuka and professional wrestler. May he rest in peace.
I saw him in a Ninja movie, The Revenge of the Nimja, all my respects to him. RIP!
@@explorer1968 He was in a lot of movies...Check out An Eye for an Eye with Chuck Norris.
Another well done review, Jeff Speakmen is way underrated
American Kenpo "borrowed" quite a few movements from the Philippine stick fighting arts. The hips and legs are engaged but used in shorter, faster movements which are hard to catch on film.
At the time this film was made the founder of American Kenpo was still alive ED Parker, Jeff Spearman was either a 5th or 6th dan also at that time. He also incorporated Jiu Jitsu into his own style of American Kenpo as far as I know but I could be wrong he is the first and only one to do so. He did not form his own style as far as I know until well after Mr. Parker died.
Nice. The Kenpo technique he does at 5:56 is a version of Thundering Hammers.
GREAT reaction Yusuke! I look forward to your next one, which will hopefully be Berry Gordy's the Last Dragon. Whatever film you decide to do next will also be GREAT, I'm sure!
Thank you, Yusuke for ALL your videos and unique insights into culture and martial arts!
That was great Sensei! I would love to see your reaction with “Kiss of the Dragon” with Jet Li. It some has Karate, Kobudo, and Taekwondo 🥋
I agree. Kids Of The Dragon was an excellent film.
Me too
8:08 regarding throwing a knife (or most objects that aren't weighted evenly), the accuracy of the toss is dependent on the heavier weighted part to guide the path of the projectile. Overhand toss, heavier on top, so at point of release heavier side going forward, like an axe throw.
Jimmy Wang Yu R.I.P 🥋 OSU 🙏
The yakuza guy didn’t shoot the cop. He shot the handcuffs to free his hands.
Ah haha your face when the gas tank exploded 😂😂😂 good stuff.
Purple Belt in American Kenpo Karate here
Shodan in Isshin-Ryu Karate
Yes the continuous movement of kenpo helps set up the next or certain strikes to be powerful.
It is possible to choke to someone out with your legs, although in this film it may not have been the most realistic.
I appreciate your videos on Kenpo Karate, the films, and other martial arts.
Oss.
Yeah, at 5:30 that was a leg triangle choke, though very loosely applied. Needed a bit more to be secure and effective.
5:30 Scissors Choke has caused someone to tap out in MMA before.
Of course, but the way it was demonstrate in that movie was so incredibly unrealistic.
Yusuke, another great reaction video! In a previous video you mentioned that modern Hollywood doesn't make movies that depict martial art techniques very well anymore. Well I found one that was made in 2009 that I think is right for your reaction collection: Blood and Bone, starring Michael J White.
I absolutely love Japan. I have a lot of friends that are Japanese. God bless Japan.
Him Pole vaulting over the fence is a callback. Remember he was a track and field athlete.
American Kenpo Karate has its own stick fighting system; Kenpo sticks. And yes, it is similar to arnis, escrima, kali of the Filipino martial arts.
Thank you for the video and perspective on the Perfect Weapon. This movie was the reason I got into martial arts. I have much respect for Jeff Speakman, Ed Parker, and my American Kenpo Karate instructors Mr. Vea and his son Tod.
Great video, sir. Before HK cinema was available here, The Perfect Weapon was easily one of my top 3 martial arts flicks. Your insights really add a fun dimension to the viewing of a movie I've seen countless times!
The guy with the little ponytail that Jeff Speakman just mixed on is the man who played Shang Tsung in Mortal Kombat he played in a mini of movies in his younger days before playing as Shang Tsung in Mortal combat
The Guy he takes the gun away from & knocks out is a Japanese born Actor Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa who has both an American Citizenship & a Russian one. He played Shang Tsung in Mortal Kombat ‘95
I know him as the bad guy in Showdown in little tokyo with Dolph lundgren and Brandon lee
He played a LOT of characters in a LOT of movies...
Yusuke I'm a big fan of Asian culture and martial arts, I appreciate your videos and translation.
funny thing is prof tanaka loved these parts, but was a gentle soul.
This was great. American Ninja is another 80s martial arts film you could check out if interested.
One more fun fact the young lady that received Jeff Speakman back into the dojo and shut the door at the end of the movie. Her name is Mariska Hargitay she plays in Law and order special victims unit.
The woman who plays Jennifer is Mariska Hargitay. She is a famous actress in Hollywood. Her mother was Jayne Mansfield. Who was also a famous actress like her daughter.
The big guy is named Professor Tanaka he was a professional wrestler in the 70s and 80s and a judokan before that. Striking with the forearm like he did is from his wrestling days and done with the kind of strength the professor can put behind the strike they are surprisingly effective. It's similar to the concept of a mua thia shin kick were the shin is what does the damage instead of the top or ball or heal of the foot. Granted you don't get the same impact energy as the kick but done properly you can generate an impressive amount of energy and professor Tanaka is sort of a Sherman tank in a suit ( a quote from Chuck Norris from one of his movies that Professor Tanaka also stared in.
2:56 So I think these two knives are supposed to make us think back to Kim and Jeff's father being in the military. They look to me like "devil's brigade" style daggers, variations on the Fairbairn-Sykes dagger used by Allied second World War commandos. I don't think it's ever said what branch or unit the two men served in, but this might be a clue to some cut scenes or dialogue.
[EDIT] there might be some other clues in the film, but you'd have to scrutinize the film to know. But it's the case in other films: for instance we can infer that Sheriff Teasle in First Blood is a Korean War vet from the decorations in his office and the way he commands his deputies when they go into the woods after Rambo.
Great movie one of my favorites I enjoy your pod cast the perfect weapon is also one of my favorite movies also because I've been in kenpo 45yrs n hold a 7th degree black belt in the art I love kenpo because it constantly adapts and changes
I agree about not utilizing body strikes on the big guy maybe foot stomp on top of the foot & kick just above the knee while attacking the eyes
Those are escrima sticks. Ed Parker was famous for his knife skills and usage of knife katas in Kenpo as well as sticks. The strike to the guard after the pole vault is a ridge hand strike to the nerves in the side of the jaw utilizing Kyusho jitsu pressure point fighting strikes.
Kenpo does lots of strikes and joint attacks. It is also called Kenpo Jujitsu in America for this reason.
I think that big bodyguard was already an attraction in the older James Bond movies.
All the techniques Jeff Speakman uses in this move are actually by the book techniques most time it’s move for move .
Garry Tagawa, played as the main villain in Showdown in Little Tokyo, as well as Shang Tsung in the first Mortal Kombat movie.
The part where Jeff Speakman chokes the guy out with his legs, is possible but not with the way he had his legs. The straight leg was placed behind the "opponents" head like a brace and he was using is other leg to cut off the blood flow of the carotid arteries, which is a blood choke. Also, where Speakmans' foot was over top of his knee was a hinderance! If anything he should've hooked the back leg overtop of the instep of the foot of his front leg and point his toes towards the ground, it would be like having a no-arm triangle choke, but to insure to quickly incapacitate he could use one hand to cover the "opponents" mouth and nose to cause panic and disrupt breathing.
or
He could've just snuck up and used a rear naked choke!
Great video!
Your channel is awesome. Just found it and subscribed it.
HI Senai I'm Don, a black belt in Kenpo and Tae Keon Do. I love The Perfect Weopion with Jeff Speakman. He is a Kenpo master. This movie is a classic. This is one of the many martial arts movies that got me into Karate when I was a kid. I love martial arts. It is my favorite hobby.
I was a teen when this came out, definitely made me want to study American Kenpo, too.
2 things: It was a cushion factory so I could see how they didn't hear him. The leg strangle hold is very possible. Build your leg strength and you can not just knock out someone but kill them either by suffocation or snapping their neck. Thigh muscles are very strong bc I remember my sister took martial arts and I could not get out of her leg scissors as a little kids LOL.
Gracias por reaccionar a esta película. Es una de mis películas favoritas
Seen this in theatres with my dad when it came out 👍
Here in ireland, all procedures, surgeries and so on are free
U only pay for the hospital stay per night which is not over the top in price, also they allow installment plans
You can also get a medical card to covers doctors visits , and u can get medicine for free u just pay a tiny levi
With a throwing knife you typically hold it by the lighter end, which is usually going to be the blade end, it gives better rotation.
Your reviews are great because you get so invested and 80's movies are all amazing especially jeff speakmans movies he was a very underrated martial artist.
If you want another Speakman movie that's pretty good to watch check out one called The Expert I like it almost as much as The Perfect Weapon
The Expert is a piece of s hit, what the hell are you talking about ?
Scissor choke is real. Not sure about hanging sideways off pallets though. Lol
I am James F JR... Didn't he throw a Sai, in the air and then into to Henchman? Not a Knife . Because the weight of the Blade would matter. Jeff Speakman is very impressive. Of Course Pat Johnson was responsible for his skills I believe in Conjunction with his main Sensei, Ed Parker. Rest in Peace Sensei. The cast was impressive the Storyline, the dialogue. The Action. In this movie really helped Hype me up. American. kenpo, I studied Okinawan Kempo. Many people say they are unfamiliar with Style are you Sensei? Everyone God Bless . Keep on Kicking. Tap on a clip to paste it in the text box.
what he did was a bjj choke hold! he a black belt in bjj and Karen kempo! and in his dojo he mixed it together in one style called kempo 5.0
Here is seven Asian actors from the movie itself. Mako the late great very famous Japanese actor, James Hong very famous Chinese actor, Dante Basco is a fillipino actor, Al Leong Chinese actor, martial artist, Clyde Kusatu another Japanese actor, James Lew actor , stuntman, martial artist, Gary Hiroyuki Japanese actor, the late great Charles J Kalani Jr College football player, retired professional wrestler, martial artist etc..
"A Tettui Uchi, a 'hammer fist' strike in karate terms."
A Polish Hammer in professional wrestling terms. Probably where he'd have picked it up.
“Luck counts as your skill set” am I the only one thinking DnD! Lol Good stuff keep it up love the content.
Options for next movie reaction vids; nothing to do with karate, but with Best of the Best we were mostly in taekwondo era anyway:
- Police Story (you need to have oid school Jacky on here)
- Above The Law (Steven Seagal is an asshole, but he's one of few who actually trained and taught his style (aikido) in Japan)
Regarding the hospitals question. Here in Denmark where I live, the government supports it all. Even going so far as to having set a time limit for treatment. If the public hospital can't treat you within 6 weeks, you are permitted to seek treatment on private hospitals and the government will still pay for it 👍
One weakness in American made martial arts movies was sometimes the writers would confuse languages and terminology from different Asian cultures. They’ll say karate when they mean taekwondo, or they’ll say yakuza when they Jopok or Kkgangpae (Korean mafia). Although when they wrote things like “Yeung has ties with the yakuza” they may have meant that he had business dealings between his Korean Jopok and the Japanese Yakuza. But with them using Korean and Japanese words interchangeably throughout the movie, that’s giving them a lot of credit.
One movie that I would love to see your reaction to is Way Of The Dragon, starring the late great Bruce Lee. The climax of the film is a one on one fight between Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris. You can either watch it in the original Cantonese with English subtitles, or dubbed into English. As much as I dislike having to read subtitles while watching a movie, the original Cantonese version would probably be better. For one thing, the scenes where Bruce’s words have to be translated into English would make a heck of a lot more sense in the Cantonese version.
Of course, you would be watching it for the martial arts fights, and there are some really good ones. There’s scenes where Bruce is fighting guys who don’t know any martial arts, so the fights are completely one sided. And then there’s the scenes where Bruce has to fight the karate experts who the mafia hired to kill him, which are incredibly well choreographed and look amazing. Those are the scenes that you would probably be most interested in seeing.
Two parts in this movie I always crack up laughing. Jeff speed slapping the guy in the club and when the guy blew up because of the prop in the scene. LOL!!! Don't mind me, I'm weird like that. But Yusuke is right, martial arts movies in the 80s and 90s were sometimes crazy and ridiculous in a good way. Outside of The Last Dragon, I would like to see you react to the Bloodfist franchise.
A lot of people don't realize that Adam is the same actor who plays Virgil in Best of the Best. If you haven't already, please react to "Showdown in Little Tokyo".
Whether you grab the knife by the handle of the blade depends on how far away the target is and the balance of the knife
Jeff Speakman has a high ranking in Goju Ryu, 9th dan. In 2923 Jeff acquired his 10 th Dan in Kenpo.!
In the U.S. by law you can't deny medical care to someone without insurance . Also in California where you have had so many people entering the country illegally and have no insurance--many hospitals had to close. Lastly the government requires them to treat everyone, but doesn't help pay the bills. P.S. look into: James Lew--from this movie and Toro Tanaka-- the main villian and Mako. They had very long careers in acting, martial arts and pro wrestling.
You attack the knee because " if a man can't stand, a man can't fight" Karate Kid 3, remember?
The technique he uses at 5:30 is called a clockhead scissor choke. More Catch Wrestling than BJJ, but it's legit.
In the United States we have Medicare that takes care of medical visits to see a doctor or if you have to go to the hospital, Where in Canada they have free health care.
I’m a 6 th Degree Black in American Kenpo we use Staff , knives and what we call Kenpo sticks that why he has those weapons.
New Zealand Hospitals where I’m from is similar to Englands where have unnecessary amounts of patients because it’s cheaper to visit for almost anything
Scissor leg choke is possible but more effective when the bent leg is grabbed at the ankle
I’d love to see you react either to Jackie Chan VS champion Kickboxer and Karateka Benny Urquidez; or, Jackie Chan vs Brad Allen, who also practiced Karate amongst other martial arts. The movies are Wheels on Meals(1984) & Gorgeous(1999) respectively.
You should react to Rumble in the Bronx or First Strike. And yes, you can “choke” someone out with your legs, although choke isn’t probably the best word since it usually isn’t restricting the windpipe. There are arteries in the neck when restricted can render a person unconscious pretty quickly (3-5 seconds), and it doesn’t take much pressure to do it.
In my country Mexico, we have both public and private healthcare, public is free if you are an employee, they also cover the medicine, if they have stock. the private is extremely expensive even with a good insurance you have to pay a lot one day of hospitalization can be around 50,000 pesos and that is a high monthly wage in Mexico just in a single day of hospitalization. Private hospitals in Mexico are mostly for medical tourism from the USA or for the top 0.1% of the country.
With regards to the British health care costs, we pay what's called national insurance which is a tax that is deducted from our salaries each month, so it's not exactly free.
No retreat, no surrender (1986) and American shaolin (1992) next, thanks!
Seidokan Aikido: Maintain Controlled Relaxation 🥋☯️
"Kiss of the dragon" Jet Li and "The Protector". Last one Muay Thai, but would like to hear the reaction to the kicks, breaks and strikes.
Jeff was a Gymnast as well as Kenpo Black Belt
knife end is one of like 3 techniques. its legit, specially with a full rotation through like that
If you can get it, take a look at the Brandon Lee movie, Rapid Fire. Might be fun to watch for a reaction video.
You know I would’ve loved an alternate movie history where the studios don’t screw over Speakman and accidentally kill Brandon Lee, it would’ve forced Seagal and JCVD to up their game.
Did you not know the person who got out of the car in this has a Red Belt in Judo one of only a handful in Japan. He is a very famous martial artist.
That Yakuza in the movie is a former wrestler like 286 pounds tough as nails
There is a movie and a miniseries I would like for you to review. First is The Last Dragon (1985). Second is the miniseries Shogun (1980) - it takes place in Japan around the 1600s with the Portuguese and the English trying to get trade routes.
Another good breakdown of a movie. Should look at Showdown in little Tokyo, with Dolph Lundgren and Brandon Lee
Hello can you watch a movie called black belt "Kuri obi ".I was wondering if that is real authentic karate ?
Check out Naka's channel. Kuro obi world
Im no expert but the leg "choke out" Jeff done from top of bags and the angle, I dont think anyone's legs are that strong. Thank you for the comentation, I have watched this movie many times and learned a great deal from you!
@7:38 I don't know if he Japanese or Chinese but that actor played one of my favorite movie mortal kombat the first 1 he was also in the tv series called mortal kombat conquest with kung lao! and the big guy from 3 ninjas the 1 one
Check out Tom-Yum-Goong also called the Protector it's a 2005 Thai martial arts action film starring Tony Jaa. Has some great fight scenes.
Do a reaction to Roadhouse (Patrick Swayze). "Wade Garrett" will tell you why Jeff went for the knee against the bigger guy.
His reaction to the obvious part in that movie is going to be gold. 🤣
In the United States, our medical insurance is provided by our employer. Some people choose not to participate, so those individuals have to pay the full amount out-of-pocket.
This was back in the early 90'S..
not a bad movie, more credible than most
Great job! I very much enjoy your reaction videos to movies from the 80s. Whistlekick did a great series on how to fight specific characters from movies, and this was a movie that we did. We talked about how we would fight Jeff Speakmans character in the movie. I think the next movie you should do is roadhouse, with Patrick Swayze.
Really nice reactions brother....I just found your channel a month back and thoroughly enjoy your breakdowns....very insightful and informative...I'm keen on martial arts styles but a good movie to react to would Ninja 2 with Scott Atkins...or maybe Ip Man 4...blessings and keep them coming...
Gotta Spin Both Ways!
There's a movie I think you'd get a kick out of, it's called "The Forbidden Kingdom" it's a good one!
Great review! I would love to see your reaction to Big Trouble in Little China
You got to review Sidekicks and Shootfighter
When you were speaking about areas to punch the main villain. I don’t know if you have seen 3 ninjas but the actor that plays the main villain stared as one of the villains and the kids in the movie were told by their grandfather to punch the exact areas you were talking about. Maybe it something that you can critique and give your opinion on.
There are many different techniques for throwing knives simply because there are many different kinds of knives. Knives designed specifically for throwing are designed and balanced differently than knives whose primary purpose is melee combat. A throwing knife will often be constructed specifically to be gripped by the handle when thrown. But some knife throwing techniques use gripping the blade as a way of overcoming the fact that the knife being thrown isn't designed primarily for that purpose, and isn't weighted and balanced for optimal throwing. If you do some research you'll see that knives designed for throwing are much more aerodynamic and symmetrical than a typical K-bar or Bowie knife.
Also in regards to medical bills here, it varies on what insurance covers. I've been uninsured and things were greatly reduced. With medical insurance some things are 100% covered off the bat, some things you have to reach your out pocket limit before insurance pays, some things are copay cost as little as $10. I had to have dental surgery 2 years ago, which would.have cost $1400 total, only ended up paying $300 due to my coverage plan. And in certain countries that have universal health care, certain medical procedures cost as much as here because they are nit covered or waiting for care takes longer than to pay out of pocket/go with private insurance and get treatment.
Things like plastic surgery might not be covered, but in the vast majority of countries that have universal health care, everything medically relevant is covered. Regarding waiting times, it depends on how high class of a hospital you go to in a country with private health care, the waiting times for standard hospitals in private healthcare countries and standard hospitals in public health care countries is probably similar, but there would definitely be a difference in the more expensive private hosptials versus standard public hospitals.
@@beganfish I'm going to disagree with you on the everything medically being covered based on knowing individuals in Canada and Germany that are dealing with and had to deal with family members not being medically covered for certain types of cancers and had/have to look into private care. End of the day anyway anyway tries to slice it the money is pooled via taxes high taxes on wages that would be yhe equivalent of low income tax brackets here (and yes Ive researched certain companies tax laws and brackets) and for some inviduals that are not are not natural born citizens of that country another fee is paid out of pocket for access to the care. It's not free and has its draw backs. But to each there own, going to Universal Healthcare in the states is not as linear and cut and dry process as people like to make it out to seem.
@@sf4010 Unfortunately, there aren't really any drawbacks to universal healthcare, your family who are having trouble getting it covered in germany and canada are having to pay, but in the US they would have to pay anyway. And if we are using anecdotes, I've had friends in the US that have had to go into some serious debt in order to pay off medical fees, or have had to work multiple jobs that ruin their lives because of said medical fees, or that avoid getting treatment because they can't afford medical fees. Having a universal healthcare option is just objectively good no matter how you slice it.
@@beganfish everything has a draw back. you can use anecdotes and I'll stick with actual data. But carry on your pro fight for universal healthcare where no has said it was a bad idea as a whole only brought up actual fact about certain components of it...so you can continue your retorting with someone else who is blindly pro universal healthcare and is in complete agreement with you.
@@sf4010 Wait, you are the one that started using anecdotes though?
The guyver, Rapid fire
Superb
In Germoney the State pays the whole Bill. We have to pay 14 percent of our income pre tax for health insurance.
