Reel Film Reviews - 5/10 by David Nusair...yes, Survivor's Eye of the Tiger can be heard on the soundtrack - a whopping and wholly unnecessary three times...
User Review - 10/10 by Frank LA great action film, Gary Busey stars as an ex-con named Buck Matthews, just released from prison who comes home and has to deal with a biker gang and the sheriff, who is his parole officer. After his wife is killed and daughter is kidnapped, he goes after them. Seymour Cassel, Yaphet Kotto, Denise Galik also star in this 1986 action film.
User Review - 10/10 by Dan Vthis is a very good action movie n the stuff one man will do to save his daughter i love it ive watched it over n over again i found it very heart felt a man saving his daughter n revenge on the death of his wife the song eye of the tiger was made for this movie not rockie as they say rockie jus made the song more popular
User Review - 10/10 by Private UGary Busey stars in this film. That's pretty much all I should need to say. Busey plays a Vietnam vet who just got out of jail after being framed by the sheriff. Think you know what's coming? Yep, revenge film. Oh, but early in the film Busey stops a bike gang that rides dirtbikes and runs drugs from raping a girl. Then the sheriff tries to get him in trouble for acting outside the law. Yep, this is a vigilante justice film now and Charles Bronson would be proud. At one point, Busey sets up piano wire or something across the street and the bikers ride into it and it slices one biker's head off. The blood in this film is also bright red and looks like paint. Did I mention Busey drives a Dodge Ram Charger? And it's jet black with steel plated windows, mortars that shoot out of the bed, and 4 assault rifles mounted on the bed that he shoots from the cab? Yaphet Kotto is also in this movie and he flies a crop duster and drops grenades on a desert compound the bikers have while listening to James Brown. Yeah, this movie is pretty much awesome.
User Review - 8/10 by Matthew MGary Busey versus a gang of bikers. Watch out, bikers! Yes, this movie is cool.
User Review - 8/10 by Zachary Danything with gary busey is a must see. the ridiculous plot of this movie makes you laugh all the way through the bloody action.
User Review - 8/10 by Michael WSolid vengeance film with wrongfully imprisoned Busey returning home to be hassled by drug-running bikers and a corrupt sheriff. Inclusion of the title song--the second time used in a hit feature film--and a rousing Bingo-hall call to action speech ensures a feelgood experience. Busey and Kotto raise this one a notch above.
User Review - 8/10 by MEC rI have this at home on VHS and its actually pretty good. Im a huge fan of any 80's action or Vietnam themed movies because usually they are action packed and this is up there with them, if a little cheesy. But the common theme of revenge is universally appealing so its great to see Vietnam vet Gary Busey snap and go nuts on a gang of drug dealing bikers when they murder his wife. Yaphet Kotto (The Running Man) plays his friend who helps him in his war against the bikers.
User Review - 8/10 by Nigel MFantastic action film with badass bikers, motorcycllist wire decapitation and a compound battle finale where barrels and tents explode all over the place.
User Review - 8/10 by Sgt. CIf you like cheesy 80's action flicks like Rambo, Death Wish 3 or anything made by the Cannon Group, chances are that you're going to like this too.
