An American-produced live-action movie version of Fist of the North Star was released in 1995, directed by Tony Randel based on a script by Peter Atkins and Wynne McLaughlin. The movie, loosely based on the Shin storyline of the manga, stars Gary Daniels as Kenshiro, Costas Mandylor as Shin and Japanese actress Isako Washio as Yuria, with Malcolm McDowell as Ryuken and Chris Penn as "Jackal" (actually a renamed Jagi). It also featured a cameo by professional wrestler Big Van Vader as Goliath. The movie saw a theatrical release in Japan, but went straight-to-video in the US (though it did receive a premiere on HBO.) The Japanese dubbed version used the original voice actors from the 1980s anime series.

The movie had mixed reviews from fans and critics. Dave Foster of DVD Times panned the movie as a poor adaptation and commented that Kenshiro's pressure point techniques "look rather tame" in comparison to the way depicted in the manga and anime series. A reviewer from eFilmCritic remarked that Kenshiro's defeat at the hands of Shin "comes off as standard" and "unbelievably goofy" compared to the 1986 animated movie version. However, Video World gave a much more positive review, calling it "First rate." It has since been firmly established as a cult film in the west, and remains the film for which Gary Daniels is best known.

    If you think any of this was "badass", perhaps you need to revaluate your life.

    You know it's funny that this movie had some lines from the anime movie in 1986.  When Kenshiro hits Zheed with the hundred crack fist, Zheed argued that it tickled, until his brains exploded, because he was already dead.

    the hyakuretsuken scene was all wrong, there was non "impact" feel, it should look like the hardest Mike Tyson punches at light speed, not this tickle!

    The only decent part of this movie was like the first part where he actually does something of the awesome shit from the anime, the rest was utter garbage.
