Plot Summary
The phenomenally successful video game is now a movie! Double Dragon roars to life with amazing special effects, spectacular action sequences, and a knock-about sense of humor. It's the year 2007, and what remains of L.A. is now "New Angels," a city ravaged by earthquakes, tidal waves, and gangs. The evil tycoon Koga Shuko (Robert Patrick) is obsessed with finding the two halves of a talisman known as the "Double Dragon," which will give him awesome mystical powers. Two teenage brothers, Jimmy and Billy Lee (Mark Dacascos, Scott Wolf) find themselves in possession of the amulet's missing half, thrusting them into the adventure of their lives. With the help of Maria (Alyssa Milano) and her vigilante group "The Power Corps," Jimmy and Billy must summon all of their courage, resourcefulness, and martial-arts skills to stop the villain's malevolent plan. Crackling with the energy and humor of its two heroes, Double Dragon is a high-octane action spectacular. Buckle your seatbelt and enjoy the ride!

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: An incoherent children's adventure based on a popular video game.
Rotten: Even kids won't get much of a kick out of this high-energy, low-IQ futuristic slugfest.
Rotten: While clumsily paced by first-time director Jim Yukich and amateurishly acted, the picture does take place against the imaginative backdrop of New Angeles, the urban archipelago formed when the Big One crumpled Southern California.

Badass
I saw this when I was young still think it's an awesome movie
Enjoyable
I enjoyed this movie when i was a kid and i still enjoy it now
Double Dragon
This movie features the adorable Scott Wolf during his "Party of Five" years. It is a classic. The only movie that features one of the most beautiful women in the world in Kristina Wagner. This is her movie debut. Kristina is known from all her years of work as "Felicia Cummings Jones Scorpio" on ABC's General Hospital. GH was #1 in the rankings when she had a story line, but sadly she is now just a once a yearl recurring character. Her voice is unique, but in this movie she gets physical and it is way out of her character from her soap days. You'll enjoy this film if you don't take the plot too serious, video games were just starting to be the rage when the movie debuted. LOVE LOVE LOVE KRISTINA WAGNER!
