Reviews from Letterboxd:

1. Lou (rhymes with wow!) – ★★★
   “A woman with comically large lips and gravity-defying boobs enters a kickboxing tournament in the Philippines to find out the truth behind her sister’s murder. If that sounds like an interesting premise to you, and you love shower scenes, stilted acting, bumbling fight sequences, and more shower scenes, then this is your movie.”

2. Todd Gaines – ★★★½
   “Watching Angelfist for the ‘martial arts’ is like collecting old school Playboy magazines for the articles. You just don’t do it. Angelfist knows who the target audience is, and it gives the audience what they want.”

3. nomenclature – ★★½
   “The kind of movie that you can easily imagine being on in the background while you’re getting stabbed.”
