As with all outstanding movies they have to mess things up by making a sequel. Sequels tend to disappoint and this one is no exception. We see Daniel Bernhardt in the lead role as Alex Cardo a thief who gets caught stealing a sword and subsequently sent to prison where he is subjected to the tyranny of the prisoners and Demon one of the prison guards. After he takes a beating he meets with Master Sun who then trains him in the ancient art of the Iron Hand. Alex makes a promise to compete in the kumite and stop the Demon from becoming the champion. The fight scenes are very good with Master HEE IL CHO making an appearance as the head judge.
Although Daniel Bernhardt is a very good martial artist I still say Van Damme does it better. Bloodsport two is not bad over all but it will be forever in the shadow of the original.

The first thing you notice about this film is that very few people know about it. The first Bloodsport was a Van Damme classic with Jean Claude doing what he does best-fighting not acting. In this second installment we see Daniel Bernhardt taking over the main character, a master thief who is caught stealing a sword from a businessman he eventually comes face to face with. The general idea of the first is mirrored in the second with Bernhardt, after a spell in a vicious Thai prison, coming out and training up before fighting in the Kumite. This time there is no Chon Lee(Bolo Yeung) and new innovations include a women fighter who gets in a romance with Randy from the first movie. The films main saving grace is the new trick Alex(Bernhardt) learns. Called the Iron Hand it is a superpunch that can shatter things without needing to touch them, almost like something from Streetfighter. The final fight which is typically brutal and swings this way and that with plenty of twists before it comes out in the usual way. The film is a decent martial arts one but never lives up to the heights of its predecessor. Great for an all night moviefest though-little effort required at all.

This is not bad not good either. Some desent fights but has nothing to do with the first superb van damme movie.
If u are a hard core fan rent it first before u buy it.
