You know what truly distinguishes "Mad Foxes"? The lines the actors say to each other between the main events and plot points (I think of this as "interstitial dialog", sort of like the stage business that actors in a play will do in the background while the big names do the plot up front.) The dubbed dialog here makes a typical hacked out Shaw Brothers kung fu import from 40 years sound like David Mamet by comparison. Ed Wood, Jerry Warren, and Herschel Gordon Lewis would all reel back laughing, and point out that no human beings ever talked like this. Ever.
Watching "Mad Foxes", you can't help but wonder if a couple of precocious 9 year olds watched some biker films on VHS, decided to write a screenplay and found a 12 year old to direct it,a 14 year old to choreograph the fights and the stunts, and a 15 year old to handle the sex scenes.
The "best" part of the movie is a swing dance sequence near the beginning that has nothing to do with the rest of the movie, and is obviously there to pad out the screen play. It's still pretty cheesy, but the dancers have energy and enthusiasm.
There are also some enjoyable 2nd unit driving sequences that take in some cityscapes and countryside, and it's fun to see the protagonist's hot car (a Stingray?) cruise down the roads in some places.
Just about everything else is hot garbage. I'd watch something like "Guy From Harlem" a dozen times before I'd watch this again.
Your mileage may vary. But don't say you weren't warned.
