    It's SUPER sad that the "real" Frank Dux was a complete and utter phony, but it doesn't change the fact that JVCD, Roy C., Lettich (Director), and the entire cast and crew were outstanding. The music was wonderful, the editing helped showcase JCVD while not taxing Roy, and there was obvious care put into the screenplay. My favorite JCVD film is still "Lionheart", though. :) All about making a little girl and her mother happy and healed. I *LOVED* THAT. And the entire cast and crew was---once again--brilliant. I only wish JCVD did more films like this, and just a few less like Universal Soldier.

    Looking back, Tanaka needed this to help get him through the death of his son. Frank took on this burden to learn at the masters feet to give his mentor hope that the teaching will go on in spite of the loss of his son. And what better candidate to do that than someone who was already like family? In essence, Tanaka could see how deeply Frank cared about the art and his family. How much of a difference they had made in his own life. The philosophy that he taught him in youth was applied and the logic was sound. It was Frank's way of conveying gratitude for allowing him to be a part of his family. To raise him up from tragedy as Tanaka had done for him from delinquency. Brilliant writing and performance.

    However, in reality, Frank Dux, as portrayed here by Van Damme never did meet Tanaka, and he was never was in any Kumate. He never received any sword awarded to him and he traded in the sword to sea traveling pirates in exchange for the lives of young boys who were going to become slaves. Believe me, Bloodsport is a kickass movie. But this movie is completely bogus telling us about Frank Dux and the Kumate as well as being trained Senzo Tanaka, not even meeting him for even ten seconds.

    I absolutely love that moment at 3:53 where Senzo gives his wife that knowing look and smile. In all his training scenes with Frank he stays stoic and stern faced, but the candidness he shows with his wife while Frank is blindfolded does a perfect job of illustrating how proud he is in that moment. Then in the final scene of this training montage, when he presents Frank with the katana, you can see the tiniest little hint of a smile across Senzo's face. Roy Chiao's performance as Tanaka was incredible.

    There is a sublime meaning that in front of his student who’s blindfolded he only wants to demonstrate his pleasure to his wife. Only in his wife will he demonstrate this act. A true measure of a man. He will not show pleasure to his student because he wants the student to understand success is long term. It’s continuing in its process and development. Miyagi did the same a small nod or smile, it demonstrates to his student it’s not enough everything is in stages. My Father was like that extreme discipline, courage and strength.

    Bloodsport is a great movie, but based upon nothing but lies regarding Frank Dux, him meeting Senzo Tanaka and training with him, and the so-called Kumate. Frank claims the Kumate he fought in was in an Asian country when in fact such a type of tournament was actually in the Bahamas that year. Frank Dux is a stain on the world of martial arts.

    The fact that he has a slight smile on his face, shows how proud Tanaka was of Frank.

And then Frank decides to honor him and trains extensively and passes all the tests, surprised him to such a degree, that he couldn't help but be impressed and proud.

    This 7 min training scene could have been a whole movie. There's just so much jam-packed into this one scene from the intro and background of Master Shidoshi, the mysterious passing of Shinji (I wonder what happened) and Frank Dux having to prove himself worthy of his master's training. Then, the actual training itself, the levels of improvement of student becoming the master, the coffee scene, and of course the culmination of all that training with the ball-stretcher torture ritual/method. And finally the ceremony at the end. Frank is now ready to honor his Shidoshi, Shinji, the family name, and win the ancient bloodsport contest. I love this movie.
