I found this film on the bottom shelf of the video store I go to and I gave it a shot. Stupid me: It was on the bottom of the shelf for a reason....This want-to-be martial arts film takes place here on the island of Guam (BTW, the Government of Guam got duped into giving the producer and director the budget for the film in hopes of encouraging tourism on the Island. Of course all the producer and director gave them was a stupid worthless movie. It seems the producer and director got 800,000$ from the Government of Guam for a 3rd party loan and then the film makers defaulted on the loan, formed a new company and bought back the film for 9,000$. And of course Guam is out the 800,000$...).Two sisters steal a jade statue from some Japanese gangsters and Max Haovc, visiting the island to photograph something or another, helps the sisters out. Max Havoc (yeah, that's his name. You kinda get an idea about how good the script is to a film where they name their main character Max Havoc) was a kick boxer who killed a man in the ring (we know this from the 450 times the incident is shown in SLOW MOTION FLASHBACK).The martial arts fights are 4th rate, the acting is 5th rate, the music is 6th rate, the direction is 7th rate and so on...The whole movie has a "rip-off" vibe to it. Carmen Electra is billed as the star and she's in it for about 45 seconds, so yeah, it's one of those "rip-off" movies on the bottom of the video store shelf. It's best to just leave it there, collecting dust.Don't waste your time or money. Seriously God awful....

The movie starts off with a bunch of stock footage of a motor-bike race, and continues for about another 15 minutes until there's a fight at a bar with sports Photographer Max Havoc (they don't tell us his middle name) and some bimbo.Then we're off to Guam for some travel promo stuff, and then the films over.Sure there's a couple of poorly executed fights, some running around in a hotel, a row boat/swimmer wreak, and about 350 shots of the same slow-mo shot of Max punching someone, but that's about it.Albert Pyun has made the worst movie of his sorry-ass career (I mean it, too. It's worse then those Urban Menace films)This movie had to be a scam, all the way around. Someone got some movie budget money in their pockets and now everything's in court. Can I file a lawsuit against Pyun & Co. for having had watch this thing?Don't waste a penny of your $ or a second of your time on Max Havoc- Curse of the Dragon

Being from Guam, of course I wanted to see this film. Everyone made such a big deal about it and the Government put up the money for it.What a really bad movie. It made little sense to me and was a waste of time. I watched it on TV here so I couldn't fast forward it!Some of my friends were in it as extras, so I guess it was cool seeing them, but the shot they were in was out-of-focus, so even that was worthless. My friends were angry. I guess they waited for hours and hours and never got paid.The only place this movie is ever gonna play is in the your local car-wash bin for $1.99. It's not even worth that!

I just saw the movie Max Havoc at a theater on Guam. I did not like the beginning but as a whole it was enjoyable. Most of the fight scenes were actually pretty good. There are some talented martial artists in this movie. It would be tough the fake the level of skill they demonstrated.A large portion of this movie was shot on Guam. The first part of the movie is weak but it does get better as it goes along. It has the feel of a seventies TV show. With that in mind it was not bad. There are a few remarks about sharks which are not true. Sharks have never really been a problem on Guam. The beauty of Guam as a location for a movie easily stands out. For anyone who is somehow connected to Guam this movie is a must see.
