One of the first video games to make the move to the big screen, producers made the bizarre decision to move the action from the iconic streets of the arcade game to a comic book inspired dystopian world filled with mutants and supernatural mythology. What follows is a delightfully cheesy, over-the-top romp that in many ways blazed a trail for the numerous video game adaptations that followed.

It’s the year 2007, and what remains of L.A. is now “New Angeles”, a city ravaged by earthquakes, tidal waves and vicious gangs. The evil tycoon Koga Shuko (Robert Patrick, Terminator 2: Judgment Day) is obsessed with finding the two halves of a talisman known as the “Double Dragon”, which will give him awesome mystical powers. Two teenage brothers, Jimmy (Mark Dacascos, John Wick 3: Parabellum) and Billy Lee (Scott Wolf, Party of Five) find themselves in possession of the amulet’s missing half, thrusting them into the adventure of their lives. With the help of Maria (Alyssa Milano, Charmed) and her vigilante group “The Power Corps”, Jimmy and Billy must summon all of their courage, resourcefulness and martial arts skills to stop the villain’s malevolent plan.
