He has cut his teeth in the film industry as a stunt professional and actor and has parlayed his years of vast knowledge into a career that is destined for greatness. Johnson, who I have said in the past, knows what the fans what and he constantly gives it to them. Johnson has crafted what is essentially a blood soaked and bullet hole filled love letter to fans all over the world who worship these kinds of films as a type of religion. Many times, movies promise one awesome thing but sadly drop the ball on the one yard line but I am here to say that this isn’t the case with TRIPLE THREAT as director and action maestro Jesse V. The inevitable comparisons to THE EXPENDABLES emerged and the film has even been dubbed The Asian EXPENDABLES but to its credit, while being compared to that classic, TRIPLE THREAT is in a whole other class by itself. Than slowly more casting news came out and people literally blew their minds when actors like Scott Adkins, Michale Jai White, MMA champ Michael Bisping and JeeJa Yanin were added. I remember it though like it was yesterday when news hit that Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais and Tiger Hu Chen would be teaming up for an action-thriller like no other. THE REVIEW: It has been a long road since TRIPLE THREAT was first announced. When a hit contract is taken out on a billionaire’s daughter (Celina Jade) intent on bringing down a major crime syndicate, a team of wanted mercenaries (Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais and Tiger Chen) must take on a group of professional assassins (Scott Adkins, Michael Jai White, Michael Bisping, Ron Smoorenburg and JeeJa Yanin) to stop them from hitting their target. OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS: This breakneck thriller teams over half a dozen of the world’s biggest action stars for the martial arts film event of the year. STARRING: Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, Tiger Hu Chen, Celina Jade, Michael Jai White, Michael Bisping, JeeJa Yanin, Ron Smoorenburg and Scott Adkins (Original Publication Date: March 15th, 2019) By: John M Jerva
