Triple Threat (2019) is a high-octane action film directed by Jesse V. Johnson that brings together an ensemble of martial arts stars, including Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, and Tiger Chen. The movie follows the story of a billionaire’s daughter, Xian (Celina Jade), who becomes the target of a dangerous mercenary group led by Michael Jai White’s character. She hires a team of elite fighters to protect her, setting off a series of intense action sequences.

The main appeal of Triple Threat lies in its action choreography. The film is a showcase of martial arts combat, featuring fast-paced, brutal fight scenes that highlight the abilities of its stars. Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, and Tiger Chen deliver exceptional performances in the fight sequences, offering a variety of styles that keep the action dynamic and engaging. From hand-to-hand combat to shootouts and chase scenes, the movie doesn’t hold back on adrenaline-fueled moments.

However, while the action is top-notch, the film’s plot is rather thin. It’s a straightforward story of survival, revenge, and protection that serves primarily as a framework to connect the action scenes. Character development is minimal, and the dialogue can feel cliché at times. The performances of the supporting cast, including Scott Adkins and Michael Jai White, add to the action’s intensity, but they don’t elevate the narrative beyond its basic premise.
