The Alexander brothers are nearly going to kill each other... both are trained fighters with different personalities. Their semi-retired CIA dad stubbornly wants another crack at putting some Terrorists away for life. The patriarch about to have his 65th birthday and only chance at any intervention with the two sons.Loren Avedon as the younger brother Will Alexander demonstrates some of his signature KICKS,SWEEPS, and FLIPS. He is a Martial Art Instructor by day and a vigilante by leisure. Keith Vitalli as Casey Alexander plays the overly domineering and arrogant older sibling. He has got into his dad's profession which his bro Will has no interest for. The dad played by Joseph Cappanelli (sorry about the spelling) is oblivious of the for-boding drama.The brothers ultimately have to pursue the Terrorists but they take different paths to find them. The Lead Terrorist Franco is heavily guarded by dozens of armed men. He even has a right hand man Russo.Franco uses Will after successfully joining forces. Now under his corny new alias Jesse Roby he kills his CIA brother or does he? Franco meets rogue CIA Agent Atteron (Luke Askew) who basically spoils Will's cover. Franco captures Casey Alexander and threatens to kill him if Will Doesn't do what he says.The finally has some fast paced martial art choreographed scenes. Franco is maybe the most badass villain in martial art movie history with his brutal moves.

this third film in the series has no relation to the previous two other than the title.it's the best movie of the first three,in my opinion.there's much more action,plenty of pretty good fight sequences,and it's fast paced.the story line was nothing new or original,but it was well done nevertheless there are some exciting moments,and i was drawn into the action.it was almost compelling in parts.of course the bad guys were your typical stock two dimensional characters just like in the previous two films,but sadly,that's almost to be expected.apparently there are at least two more movies in the series,but i think i've had my fill for awhile.for me,No Retreat, No Surrender 3: Blood Brothers is a 6/10

this is the first movie of the "No Retreat, No Surrender" series that i watched.The fights are well choreographed (reminds me of the work of Corey Yuen, director of the first No Retreat, No Surrender), thrilling, entertaining and well made.Loren Avedon and Keith Vitali made a good team up, Rion Hunter did an awesome job as "Franco", the villain.Plot: After their father got killed by Franco, the leader of a terrorist organization, Will (Avedon) and Casey (Vitali) must revenge their father's death, the political and moral point of view of the two brothers are different, sometimes leading to some disagreement.Watch it even if you haven't see the 2 previous movies of the No Retreat, No Surrender series.It's like a martial arts movie made in Hong Kong with American actors, super recommended.

I wasn't expecting much from No Retreat NoSurrender 3: the DVD I watched was a bare bones pan and scan effort (meaning that the distributor either couldn't be arsed or thought the film unworthy of much attention), and the director and 'stars' were unknowns to this fan of fight-fests. However, despite some awful acting and an unimaginative story, Blood Brothers actually proved to be quite good fun. Not groundbreaking in any way, shape or form, you understand, but solidly entertaining stuff nonetheless, particularly if you enjoy silly action trash from the 90s (it comes packed with nasty hairstyles, a naff soundtrack, and plenty of hard-bodied babes).Loren Avedon and Keith Vitali play Will and Casey Alexander, two brothers who fail to see eye to eye; Casey is a womanising CIA operative, whilst Will is a selfish Karate instructor with a strong moral sense (but no fashion sense—check out his denim and leather blouson jacket, chinos, and aviator shades combo!). But when their father is murdered by a group of terrorists, led by white-mullet-ed baddie Franco (Rion Hunter), they eventually learn to work together in order to bring the killers to justice.Casey uses his connections in 'the company' to locate the whereabouts of those responsible for his old man's demise, and then convinces Maria, his ex-girlfriend (and also an ex-employee of Franco's), to help him make contact with them; Will, on the other hand, is a little more impetuous and hot foots it to Florida on his own (after taking a peek at his brother's Top Secret file on the case), changes his name to Jessie, and gets a job with the bad guys as a 'heavy'.Inevitably, Will's true identity is discovered and big brother Casey must come to the rescue.Of course, it's not the quality of the story that matters in a film like this—it's the action. And with bone-crunching stunts, and loads of fast and furious martial arts, fans of the genre should not be disappointed. What Avedon and Vitali lack in acting skills, they more than make up for with their ability to kick ass.The fighting is certainly impressive stuff: acrobatic, fast, and very painful looking, with bodies crashing through glass, falling from great heights, and generally being treated in a manner that would cause mere mortals like me to spend many months in hospital (or, quite likely, an eternity six feet under). The use of some unconvincing stunt-doubles, particularly in the film's closing moments, kinda spoils things a tad (Hunter's stand-in wears a VERY bad wig), but, on the whole, as low-budget actioners go, this one delivers the goods where it matters most.6.5, rounded up to 7 for IMDb
