Triple Threat

You've got an all star dream team of martial artist here in Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, Tiger Chen, Michael Jae White, Scott Adkins, and Jeeja Yanin to name just a few.  That alone promises a lot of potential and their is surely great action to supplement the badly executed story.  Don't get me wrong.  It's certainly not the worst executed plot and most martial art fans understand that, expecting more action.  On this note, it's great and there is never a dull moment with the variety of styles showcased and going against one another.  Yet, I would certainly argue that each of these stars already has or can potentially make their own stand alone movie even better executed action.  Tony, Iko, Scott, and Michael for sure have showcased their prowess better in their own films.  But a buffet of action stars that aren't yet ready for the Expendables movies from an international cast is still just magnificent to behold, especially in seeing the teaming of Tony and Iko and their respective western counterparts of Michael and Scott.  Granted, an action cast that extensive and talented is rather doomed to fully live up to the expectations and possibilities of the fans given the time restraints and budget of a regular feature film format, even as visceral as Triple Threat is.
