Theory: Videogame movie starring beautiful women like Holly Valance, Devon Aoki and Jamie Pressly fighting each other on an island in an underground tournament whilst wearing skimpy clothing. And there’s an ulterior motive of the tournament, where the evil host wants to record all of the experts (in skimpy clothing) assembled’s fighting styles to sell to the highest bidder. And there’s volleyball. And skimpy outfits. It’ll be fun!
Practice: There is little or no reason to watch DOA: Dead or Alive except to stare at the stars covorting around in bikinis or otherwise (example – Valance coming out of a shower in a towel, then puts on her underwear in a fight scene). Indeed, the fights themselves seem a bit underwhelming and have the most tenuous of plotpoints.
If you’re watching it for the story, then you really need to get out more. It’s less story and more “excuses” for things to happen. Such as a fight on a boat against pirates. In swimwear. Or the oriental palace, leaving the clan by jumping over a wall which has a sheer cliff face on the other side, and whilst plummeting, allowing the oriental garb to tear away revealing modern clothing and an automatically opening hanglider. Or the volleyball being there just to fill up screentime with good looking women in skimpy outfits.
Is it a videogame movie? Yes.
Does it continue the trend of videogame movies? Yes.
Is it worth pointing out that the movie could be ignored except for the Holly Valance towel/underwear scene because for the most part the movie isn’t worth most people’s time unless they’re out to see women fighting, in skimpy outfits? Yes
