It is the only way she is capable of feigning emotion on camera. Someone really needs to give her a talk. Unfortunately, the Carano lip bite is what some people want to see.
My thoughts too. That gif of her biting her lip is coming back to bite her. She thinks it's acting.
 
I'm prepared to bet that I will agree with the negative reviews when I eventually see this. I get the impression that this is for people who also liked the Expendables series. I was not one of those.

Now that I know it's already on VOD I'll have to check it out soon and report back. I did find this bit in one of the reviews encouraging though:

Van Damme fights more than I ever expected him to in this role, and he's awesome. This is what we came to Kickboxer for and Van Damme has never looked this vicious.

Well, good to know he is a little more active than Burt Reynolds in the Longest Yard remake.
 
To be fair rotten tomatoes sucks ass. Their Top 100ffilms are smostly from the 1950s or earlier that noone watches.

I suspect you don't know how RT actually works. They don't actually review the movies themselves. They just collect outside reviews and then offer a composite score.

You're right I don't.

Who is writing reviews of movies from the 1940's now?
 
I dont understand how these movies make money for people like gina or gsp. They are laughably bad and NOT on tv. Whats the up side?

Christopher Lambert has joined the cast of Kickboxer: Retaliation. Lambert’s casting teams him with Jean-Claude Van Damme to meld two of the great genre movies Highlander and Kickboxer, movies that motivate audiences years after their initial box office releases. Kickboxer: Retaliation is the second installment in a trilogy reboot of 1989’s hit action film Kickboxer.

Kickboxer: Retaliation picks up where Kickboxer: Vengeance leaves off with Kurt Sloan, Alain Moussi continuing as the lead character, in Thailand fending for his life against a new formidable foe, Mongkut, portrayed by Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson (Game of Thrones).

Lambert will portray Thomas Moore, a wealthy ex pat, who in his youth was a consummate martial artist and is currently the Godfather of Underground fighting in Thailand. He’s a purist that believes Muay Thai fighters who fight to the death are warriors. A master-manipulator, he has influence everywhere and of course with the use of his money, he is able to imprison Kurt Sloan in order to make him fight a monster. Moore does not accept the word “No.” With a state of the art scientist, using HGH, steroids and other concoctions, in his own lab, Moore has created Mongkut, 6′ 9″ and over 400 hundred pounds of Muay Thai destruction, Moore wants to use Sloan’s fame as world champion to advance his man by pitting the two champions, “David Vs Goliath,’ against each other in the ring.

Dimitri Logothetis, who owns the rights to the Kickboxer franchise and wrote and produced Kickboxer: Vengeance, serves as writer and director on Retaliation.

Kickboxer: Retaliation is currently filming principal photography on location in Thailand with additional filming taking place in California and Nevada.

The first film in the trilogy, Kickboxer: Vengeance stars Van Damme, Moussi, Dave Bautista and Gina Carano and hits theaters and VOD on September 2, 2016.
