At Stream Tracker, we take a look at Only the Strong (1993) — the cult capoeira film in which former Green Beret Louis Stevens returns to Miami to take on gangs, drug dealers and a failing high school, teaching Kerrigan’s most at-risk students the rhythm and fight of capoeira. In this article we’ll check whether the movie is currently available on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or Apple TV+, and cover any regional or format differences you should know about. The film didn’t earn major industry awards, but it’s remembered for Mark Dacascos’s physical performance and its authentic capoeira sequences that turn the schoolyard into a battleground for redemption. Read on to find out where you can stream Louis Stevens’s fight for his students.
Synopsis
Louis Stevens, a former Green Beret recently returned from service in Brazil, comes back to Miami to find his old high school swallowed by gangs and drug activity. After he intervenes using his capoeira training to chase away a group of dealers from the campus, a longtime teacher named Kerrigan notices how the students respond to him. Convinced that Stevens can reach the most troubled kids, Kerrigan asks him to take on a small group of at-risk pupils and teach them capoeira as a way to steer their lives in a new direction.
