Just Bad... one of Scott's worse plot,acting and narration all bad and this is coming from a huge Scott Adkins. Only thing enjoyable was the final fight scene. If your a fan like i am stay away from this movie you'll be highly disappointed.

SAVAGE DOG is a hugely entertaining action B-movie from the reliably great British action star Scott Adkins. It's set in 1959 and in the fetid jungles of Indochina, where Adkins is playing a brawling fighter in the employ of a cruel SS villain. Eventually he gets betrayed by his own side, survives a murder attempt, and goes on a killing spree to get revenge.It's a predictable enough with bits of BLOOD SPORT and the RAMBO series thrown in along the way, but nobody in their right mind is going to be watching this for the story. The action is where it counts, and the action of SAVAGE DOG is absolutely brilliant. The arena fights of the first half are all well and good, but once Adkins goes down the path of revenge this becomes brutal, expertly-choreographed, and thoroughly satisfying.Gore effects are utilised by CGI and look decent throughout, while the supporting cast is packed with engaging familiar faces: the hulking Marko Zaror as the bad guy, Keith David as the narrator, Cung Le as a soldier, Juju Chan as the romantic interest, Matthew Marsden as a British agent. Adkins is at the top of his game here and has never felt so powerful or merciless as he takes down foe after foe, and some of the effects are outrageous. I loved it to bits.

As a rule of thumb I like martial arts films with Scott Adkins in the lead. The reasons these films work, is they follow a straightforward exposition driven, martial arts action formula. Savage Dog fails because it tries to step away from that formula and take itself a little too seriously. The result is a film that's a self consciously uncomfortable mix of corny drama and hamstrung action. Worse still, is the badly executed(pun intended) violence, found throughout this film. Its grubby blood soaked stuff, with some icky kill scenes that are gratuitous and farcical, in equal measure. In my opinion, a dog of a movie. Three out of ten from me.

I had expected another standard martial arts flick but was pleasantly surprised to see that the director has put in some effort at character establishment , having some sort of story ...some effort at acting etc , and making the most of whatever little budget he had .... Make no mistake its still a low budget B level movie created mainly for martial arts fans ....but it was a refreshing take to see some effort being made to create a movie what we can call a decent one time watch...Hope to see more from the Director ....
