Wow, I am amazed.How can anyone bring together Enfield rifles, NAZI uniforms and helmets, working helicopters and FWD vehicles in the post apocalypse all under the general unit designation of Satan? Because they are Satan and Satan was an Asian silly! Dolph does his best to express Keenu Reeves like emotion in this action packed thriller drama comedy sci-fi horror of post apocalyptic Asian NAZI dominance by supermen who are definitely not Asian, except Satan in a communist uniform of course, and antique weaponry.If this is any guide to the apocalypse, be prepared to dive when something explodes, use antique firearms from WWII and fight cheesy action heroes dressed in who knows what (I'm hoping drag).

This movie amazed me. It amazed me that I was even able to watch it. How in the world did this movie get any sort of funding? A video game obsessed eleven year old boy must have wrote it. The adult entertainment industry has come up with better plots. The random Nazi uniforms are the best. I think I saw a stage hand but I couldn't tell. He might have been a character. This movie gave me the stigmata. I would rather wipe my rear end with rotting garbage that is on fire than watch this movie again. To make someone watch this movie is torture. The worst kind of torture. I give this movie four turds out of five stars.

In a place where the past and future meet, Dolph will make one of his strangest movies yet. 'Bridge of Dragons' is the closest thing to a fairy tale that Dolph Lundgren is ever going to do. A fairy tale that involves more wasted bullets than John Woo could ever dream of, but a fairy tale none the less.In a land where time where the past and future are apparently one, the evil General Ruechang (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa) rules with an iron fist. The King has been dead for some time, but Ruechang is plotting to consolidate his power by marrying Princess Halo (Rachel Shane), allowing him to sit on the throne. Enter Warchild (Dolph), Ruechang's best soldier. When Princess Halo ditches the wedding in a bid to join the rebels, Warchild is sent in pursuit. However, Warchild has a conscience attack, and it may not quite be what Ruechang was expecting.'Bridge of Dragons' is great fun if you like Dolph and cheese. The movie cheese, not the food cheese. In case you were not instantly able to tell that Ruechang is evil, he conveniently has the number 666 stuck on his helicopters and jeeps, for no apparent reason. On the other hand, the name Princess Halo pretty much ensures her good-guy status, and this fairy tale world gets crazier. We have Asian rulers, Scottish bartenders, and Dolph. Princess Halo's martial arts abilities are matched only by Warchild's and Ruechang's, without explanation of course. Thanks to a crazy past / future time combination, we get to see evil guys trading horses for women, only to have Dolph shoot them and drive off in a four-wheel drive. Interesting. And a princess joining the rebel alliance? Inconceivable!'Bridge of Dragons' is an action B-movie at its most b-ness. We have a world in which everyone dies an acrobatic death, sometimes getting more acrobatic as the deaths pile up. Dolph does beat up and shoot many people, but leaves a few for Tagawa, Chow, and Gary Hudson. The action scenes are exciting, even if you can plainly see stunt men waiting for their cue to jump from the impending explosion. Awesome.Don't be fooled by the cover. "The directorial style of John Woo" actually refers to the style of this film's director, Isaac Florentine. You can be excused for never having heard of him, as he seems to direct only action b-movies and episodes of 'Power Rangers'. Nor is 'Bridge of Dragons' Dolph's finest hour, as the package claims. It's like a fairy-tale version of 'Men of War' (which nearly is Dolph's finest hour), just with less of a point.'Bridge of Dragons' is a fun movie. May even appeal to people who aren't Dolph Lundgren fans (and that doesn't happen very often), and is recommended to anyone for looking for cheap laughs - 4/10

Dolph Lundgren stars as Warchyld a killing machine who is torn between honor to his leader Ruechang (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa)and his growing love for the Princess Halo (Valarie Chow) who runs off when she finds out her father was killed by Ruechang, Warchyld tries to track her down and finds himself drawn to the rebel's cause in this surprisingly well made straight to video actioner. Bridge Of Dragons may have a silly plot but this actionpacked martial arts actioner is more entertaining then it had any right to be.
