What You Need To Know:
The fighting in DOA is frequent but looks more like a dance routine than real combat. Not a drop of blood is spilled as armies of ninjas lose in sword fights to the buxom babes. While this may be better than the movie 300, where blood splatters by the gallons full, killing hundreds of opponents (even bloodlessly) is not a healthy use of time. DOA also contains some foul language, sexual allusions and partial nudity. This should hold no appeal for media-wise pre-teenage boys and girls.

More Detail:
DOA: DEAD OR ALIVE is a Kung-Fu fighting video game turned into a movie. It focuses all too closely on bikini clad fighters trouncing hefty male contestants as well as armies of ninjas. The movie follows the game so closely it opens with a series of events presented as if you were selecting on a computer or game console which players you wanted to fight with in the game. Each of the vignettes that demonstrate how violent the lead women are is followed by a set of glamour shots and a name plate presentation much like a game itself, then it’s off to the secret island for the big single elimination $10 million contest.
The contest turns out to be a front for using the contestants to design armies of fighters with the best fighting skills available on earth. After dispatching several huge male contestants, the female winners wind up joining forces to save the earth (and a few not so huge male friends). The fighting is frequent but looks more like a dance routine than real combat. Not a drop of blood is spilled as armies of ninjas lose in sword fights to the buxom babes. While this may be better than 300 where blood splatters by the gallons full, killing hundreds of opponents (even bloodlessly) is not a healthy use of time. DOA also contains some foul language, sexual allusions and brief partial nudity.
The appeal of a movie like this is to the boys that play the video game and to those who like to see girls in bikinis fighting. This should hold no appeal for anyone who claims Jesus Christ as Lord of their life, including teenage and pre-teenage boys and girls. Christian parents should just say “no” to any child wishing to see this movie. If you would not buy Jesus a ticket to this movie, you should not buy one for your child. Take your children to see NANCY DREW or RATATOUILLE instead.
