            Dave (Joe Gates) and Josh (Jay Gates) Conner are twin brothers who are skilled in the martial art of taekwondo. While Josh spends most of his time at the school, Dave is a champion fighter who is given attitude by his last opponent, Bobby Souk (Krist Geriene). Bobby is the head instructor of a new kung fu school that opened. However, the school is actually a cover for mob boss Donald Moss (Joe Estevez), who is planning a counterfeit ring.Meanwhile, Dave and his wife Karen (Nicolette Vatjay) try to make amends with Josh, who after a bar fights, meets Allison (Nikka Bailey), Bobbys girlfriend. Allison has grown tired of Bobbys attitude and plans to leave him. Meanwhile, the Conner brothers accidentally get themselves involved with Moss when they stop Moss gang from going after the man hired to counterfeit Moss money, Barman (Edgar Bailey). During the melee, Dave kicks a gunman and Barman is killed by a bullet to the head. When Josh sees the money, he takes it and runs. When Moss gets wind, his attempt to grab Josh ends up resulting in Dave being kidnapped. With no help from the police, Josh finds a potential ally in Ray Tobin (Robert ZDar), a bounty hunter hired to do jobs the police dare not touch. Together, Josh and Ray must work together to save Dave and Allison from the clutches of Moss before its too late.While it is true that the twin fighter genre had been done to death, this is quite an interesting film. While many may feel this is a rip-off of DOUBLE IMPACT (1992) and TWIN DRAGONS (1992), there are very notable differences between this film and the previous two. First, there is no separation at birth in this film. Second, there is no Corsican Brothers-like concept of feeling each others pain. This is just a standard action film that stars twin brothers who are martial artists involving themselves with a counterfeit ring resulting in one brother being kidnapped.The twin brothers of the film are Jay and Joe Gates, experts in the Korean art of taekwondo. They are protege of Edgar Bailey, who appears in the film as counterfeiter Barman. While Bailey himself doesnt have any fight scenes, it is the Gates brothers who shine. They bring a traditional style of the art to the film. They are quite some master kickers with fluidity in their aerials. While there are no flashy style acrobatics like in some of todays martial arts films, the style here consists of power punches, jumping kicks, and even some nice flying angle kicks. Even the actor playing the main fighting villain, Krist Geriene, is quite a martial artist who doesnt have too many fight scenes, but impresses when he does fight the Gates twins.
