Blu-ray Review – Tiger Cage 3

Third time isn't the charm for 1991's "Tiger Cage 3," which is another separate tale of underworld entanglement from director Woo-Ping Yuen, who returns to keep the brand name going for another chapter of violent entertainment. It's more cops vs. crooks activity in the second sequel, but the production isn't completely dedicated to the cause, softening the story with a talky tale of tragedy, revenge, and business dealings, limiting martial arts and gunplay to just a few extended sequences. "Tiger Cage 3" tries to deliver a human take on heroism and relationships, but it's more of a soap opera than an involving drama, delivering puzzling behaviors and plotting as it gives in to melodrama that's nowhere near as compelling as all the physical mayhem of the first two titles in this series.
