- 75RogerEbert.comSimon AbramsRogerEbert.comSimon AbramsThe exceptionally fun martial arts beat-em-up Kickboxer: Retaliation is a very dumb, and very satisfying throwback to a simpler time when American action films were as predictable as they were formulaic.
- 70IGNWitney SeiboldIGNWitney SeiboldWhile hardly high cinema, Kickboxer: Retaliation is an enjoyable fight epic with some awesome fighting, great cameos, and hugely impressive stunts.
- 60The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeA pulpy and fun fight flick that is better in some respects than it needs to be, Retaliation may not do for Moussi what the original Kickboxer did for Van Damme, but it won't send fans home disappointed.
- 50Village VoiceCraig D. LindseyVillage VoiceCraig D. LindseyA hysterically entertaining train wreck.
- 40Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinLos Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinDirector Dimitri Logothetis, again scripting with his Kickboxer: Vengeance co-writer James McGrath, barrels through the chockablock action with requisite energy. But dialogue and performances (including Mike Tyson as Kurt's prison mate), are often laughably subpar.
