Skip it. This sounds like a low-budget B-movie with a paper-thin premise that relies entirely on one gimmick—a martial arts master forced to fight. Without notable cast members, critical reception, or a fresh take on the WWII POW genre, you're better off rewatching actual classics like The Great Escape or Bridge on the River Kwai tonight.

Plot

British RAF Wing Commander James Wright is captured by the Japanese during WWII and forced to fight in brutal hand-to-hand combat. The Japanese soldiers get more than they bargained for when Wright’s years of martial arts training in Hong Kong prove him to be a formidable opponent.
