“BEST OF THE BEST 4: WITHOUT WARNING is the fourth and final of this martial arts-based series. Now that Iu0026#39;ve seen all of them, I can report that the second one is by far the best; the first one was weak and unfocused and the third too derivative a thriller. The fourth is much like the third was: it has some good action scenes but the plot is entirely derivative and itu0026#39;s not as good as the second in the series.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePhillip Rhee once again returns to write, direct, and star in the whole thing. Oddly, heu0026#39;s now a widower with a six-year-old daughter, which is bizarre given he was single in the last movie which only seemed to take place a couple of years previously. Rhee falls foul of the Russian mob, who are searching for a plot MacGuffin in the form of a computer disc that just so happens to fall into Rheeu0026#39;s possession. Action ensues.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBEST OF THE BEST 4 is a film with cheesy stunts and cheesier action, including an explosive encounter with a tanker and plenty of motorbike action. The action is pretty cool, especially the early encounter in a corner street store between Rhee and a couple of goons, even though the story and characters are sub-standard. Still, there are a few familiar faces in this one, not least Ernie Hudson (GHOSTBUSTERS) as a tough-talking cop, SAWu0026#39;s Tobin Bell as the villain of the piece, Schwarzenegger double Sven-Ole Thorsen as a henchman (what else?), Paul Gleason (DIE HARD) as a priest, and Art La Fleur (THE BLOB) as an ally.”
