Olá Bruna,

1993 film

Only the Strong is a 1993 martial arts film directed by Sheldon Lettich, starring Mark Dacascos.

It is considered to 6️⃣ be the only Hollywood film that showcases capoeira, an Afro-Brazilian martial art, from beginning to end.

Plot [ edit ]

Former Green 6️⃣ Beret Louis Stevens (Mark Dacascos) returns to his hometown of Miami after completing military service in Brazil, only to learn 6️⃣ that his old high school has become a haven for gangs and drug dealers.

After Stevens uses his capoeira skills to 6️⃣ kick several drug dealers off the school property, Mr.

Kerrigan (Geoffrey Lewis), one of Stevens' old teachers, sees the impact that 6️⃣ Stevens has on the students.

Kerrigan gives him the task of teaching capoeira to a handful of the worst at-risk students 6️⃣ at the school, giving Stevens an abandoned fire station as their practice area.

While doing so, Stevens earns the ire of 6️⃣ the local drug lord, Silverio Oliveiras (Paco Christian Prieto), whose younger cousin, Orlando Oliveiras (Richard Coca), is one of Stevens' 6️⃣ students.

Silverio is also a master of capoeira, and he engages Stevens in combat, beating him viciously.

The horrified Orlando resolves to 6️⃣ learn everything he can from Stevens.

Stevens' class learns quickly, and they become very skilled at capoeira.

The principal, delighted, proposes a 6️⃣ district-wide capoeira program to the school board.

After a field trip with his class, Stevens once again clashes with Silverio, who 6️⃣ declares war against him.

Silverio's gang terrorizes the high school and sets fire to Kerrigan's classroom, resulting in the death of 6️⃣ one of Stevens' students.

As a result of this incident, Stevens is accused at fault, banished from the school grounds and 6️⃣ the capoeira program is terminated.

In retaliation to the attack, Stevens sneaks into Silverio's chop shop and defeats the workers before 6️⃣ setting a cash-filled car on fire.

Furious, Silverio orders the gang to bring Stevens to him alive.

Orlando flees to get help.

After 6️⃣ a desperate battle, Stevens is finally captured and brought to a bonfire, where Silverio awaits.

However, Stevens' capoeira students bar their 6️⃣ path in an attempt to rescue their teacher.

Before a brawl can ensue, the exhausted Stevens challenges Silverio to single combat 6️⃣ to win back his students.

After a grueling battle, Stevens defeats Silverio before the police arrive, sending the gang scattering in 6️⃣ all directions.

With this defeat, Silverio's reputation as crime lord is gone.

Stevens' capoeira program proves such a success that his students 6️⃣ graduate from high school.

To celebrate, they join a Brazilian capoeira team to perform for Stevens at the graduation ceremony.

Though Mark Dacascos is a talented martial artist, his background is not initially in capoeira.

Just prior 6️⃣ to his audition, he received his training from famed capoeirista Amen Santo, who was responsible for much of the fight 6️⃣ choreography and has a small role in the film.

Box office and reception [ edit ]

Only the Strong earned US$3,273,588 at the U.S.

box office, making only more 6️⃣ than half of its US$6 million budget.[1]

The film was universally panned by critics, earning a 13% approval rating on Rotten 6️⃣ Tomatoes based on 15 reviews.

[6] Roger Ebert gave the film one out of four stars, saying, "The message of a 6️⃣ movie like Only the Strong, building on the fascist undertones of its title, is almost cruel in its stupidity and 6️⃣ naivete.

It's almost a relief that few people in the audience for such a film ever remember if it even had 6️⃣ a message or not".

[7] Joe Brown of The Washington Post also wrote a scathing review, saying it "relies slightly less 6️⃣ relentlessly on violence for its own sake than most in this genre, but the film is clumsily assembled and edited, 6️⃣ heavy on the slow-mo, and its simplistic story plays like 'The Kids From Fame' armed with very sharp knives".[8]
