Mr Parker
was just wondering if anybody has ever seen this movie? If so,how do you like it? I dont remember it ever being out at the theaters but I remember hearing about it years later that it was a movie with one of my favorite actors Roger Moore in it and Starring Jean Claude Van Damn so when i saw it at the video library the other night,I snatched it up in a hearbeat since it was one I always meant to see but never got around to.

Loved it,I had no idea what to expect but it exceeded all my expectations.It had great scenery and a music score that really made the movie all the more better.really made some moments fun to watch.I liked it better than even Bloodsport due to that and also since Roger Moore was in it.Van Damn was brilliant casting him in that movie.Moore was also his childhood hero while growing up.I would rank this my second favorite Van Damn movie after Double Impact.

I liked this movie as a kid. It was awesome, as it should be for just about any pre-teen young man.


I thought hte opening scene in the bar was great. Watching that old man beat the crap out of those guys.


Typical van Damme movie, though. With a fight...having to take revenge for a comrade fallen, etc.

They first time i saw it, I would probably give it a 8 out of 10. Seeing it as an adult again, I'd probably give it a 6.

yeah I would probably rank it around there as well if Moore wasnt in it.Because he was,I give it a nine.

Don't get your hopes up. the best part IMO is towards the end when Van Damme is fighting the five style Chinese dude.

"Lets go to Muy Thai Island." Movie's retardedly funny, I saw it for free, opening day in the theatre; I still remember that line.

This movie came about because of Van Damme wanting to do Bloodsport his way and Duke wasnt having it. They settled in court and Duke won. Years later, Van Damme made his own version and thats this movie. IMO It failed compared to Bloodsport.

I got some stuff wrong but still Quest is a remake/ripoff of Bloodsport.

It was a dead give away that it was a remake/ripoff of Bloodsport when the beginning credits rolled around and said it was written by Van Damn and Dux. wink I guess not many people here are as huge of a fan of Roger Moore as me and van Damn are cause like I said,thats the main reason I like this one better than Bloodsport. wink I already knew going in,what it was about so when i saw that Dux helped write the movie,I knew that from the get go. big grin
