Excellent but underrated film
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
This movie is great. Jay and Joe Gates are terrific first time actors. They are absolutely amazing at fighting and Tae Kwon Do. They are twin brothers who can kick serious butt! Go rent this movie! You can tell that Jay and Joe Gates (the main characters in Equal Impact) have been been mastering the skill of Tae Kwon Do for a long long time. It is a very hard skill to master and they are just great! I bet they are real down to earth men. They ARE real. The fighting is all real. For anyone who appreciates a good movie that doesn't have all of the new special effects and such, you should definitely see this movie. From what I hear they are from Salem Oregon. Let's see more movies from the Gates twins!
The plot is modest, however the action is superb. Slow in some parts. Excellent Taekwon-Do techniques by masters of the art. A "must See" for those interested in the real thing. Refreshing to see a movie that is "real"; real twins, real jumping kicks, real martial artists.
