Fun show. Extreme martial arts is definitely entertaining, but it does get a little repetitive over the course of almost an hour. Fortunately, they manage to keep it fresh with corny humor and creative ideas.
I especially enjoyed the Karate Kid segment. If you grew up in the 80s, how could you not love the Karate Kid? Actually, I'm more partial to Karate Kid II. Peter Cetera and his Glory of Love gets me every time! So cheesy that it made me laugh.
I also loved the Star Wars segment. Any time you can work in light sabers and the genius of John Williams, it's a winner. I even recognized some of the choreography used in the newer films. Regardless of how you feel about the prequels, the fight scenes are awesome.
The most creative segment is done to a dance version of Michael Jackson's Man in the Mirror. They have an ordinary man in his business suit, tired from the stresses of life. He looks in the mirror and sees his martial arts alter ego. Basically, it's two guys mirroring each others movements. It's a simple idea but executed incredibly well.
The troupe is made up of a handful of athletic guys and one girl (who is pretty hot). It's obviously not a marquee Vegas show, but I found it to be enjoyable. On one hand, I got my tickets through houseseats, so they were "free." On the other hand, I probably would never have heard of the show if it wasn't for houseseats. It's a win-win. read more
