"I am into Martial Arts movies and crazy about them. I really enjoyed this one not only martial arts but he got revenge on the people who killed his brother and you could not ask for a better movie to watch and the actor that was the main star of this movie I think this was the best movie that he played in and starred in thank you."
Very good movie

"I'm a very big Martial Arts crazy fan. I love alot of them, hate alot of them. But this one, is one of my favorite films. Has a good climax and plot to it, and has some good fighting in it. This is a good movie and T. J. Roberts is a good actor, to me would have been a awesome upcoming Martial Arts star.
Now, the 1st review on this movie is totally uncalled for. This is a good movie, maybe even a great movie. It is actually better than alot of HIGH class martial arts movies. T. J. Roberts is a good martial arts star in this movie and all of is other 4 movies. Wish he'd continued to make them, shame he didn't. But I know he would have if he could have. And I would so recommend watching the Magic Kid 1 & 2 along with The Power Within and Tiger Heart movies. Tiger Heart is probably his best, I loved it. So pay no attention to the 1st comment, which shouldn't have been posted because of rude comments and just plain down right mean.
But this movie is about a boy that took karate off his older brther. Then his brother dies at high schoool, so its up to T. J. Roberts to find out what happened to him. So he goes undercover I guess you'd say, and some fighting takes place. Just a really good movie, great plot and climax to this movie. Great story behind it. Better than most.
So all in all, I would recommend watching this movie, and all of T. J. Robert's movies. They are all good. You won't forget them, tell you that much."
Teriffic TJ

"There is no doubt that TJ Roberts would never have been the next Ralph Macchio in the acting department, but that's not the reason to be watching this movie.
A Dangerous Place does offer up some very exciting action and a great opportunity to see Corey Feldman playing a cardboard cutout adult action movie baddie trapped in a teen boy's body. The story is good but predictable, the acting fair at best, but the martial arts talent of TJ is what clearly shines here. Some well cut together scenes and slow mo shots of young 13 year old TJ in action rival many other movies with adult actors, including the overrated Jet Li. TJ's style, grace, poise and overall positive energy plays off perfectly to Feldman's rigid, streetfighter type mode of martial arts. No wires or computer generated effects needed here, these guys DO the work, and its literally breathtaking to watch at times.
Bottom line here: If you want a truly heartwarming film about an underdog kid beating the odds and coming out on top, see the Karate Kid for the 300th time. TJ is no underdog, he has true black belt talent that shines through in every scene, in every way. If what you are looking for is a great martial arts movie with more of a storyline than many that stars someone with real talent in martial arts, not just movie magic simulated butt whippings, then A Dangerous Place is for you."
