| User ReviewJoe GI was utterly shocked when I found out this was a 1991 movie. I expected it to be about ten years earlier at least. This movie had terrible acting, writing and virtually everything sucked. Only one thing saved this movie from being the worst ever... Two Words: CHUCK NORRIS. His mullet is spectacular. The beard, Invincible. But besides the one positive aspect, there are tons of retarded things about this movie. On the front it says 'three and a half stars, Astonishing!' and on the back the first thing it says is "A four star action movie.' This movie is so predictable, a handicapped newborn could have seen what is coming a mile away. But it added to the lame unintentional humor of this movie. Trust me, nothing really makes sense. All you will see is gangsters shooting gangsters then Chuck comes in and kills them all. There is no real plot. Without Chuck, this movie would suck. And how did the kid survive being strapped to a chair and having a bomb set off right beside him?? |
| User ReviewNicolas Kone of the best chuck Norris movies ever...totally love this film |

| User ReviewDave CMy fave bit is when chuck decks the bullies father by punching him through a door then coolly walked away. Awesome! |
| User ReviewMarisa SChuck's second best movie, and Aaron Norris' best film! |
| User ReviewMichael BBy looking at the title you'd think this movie would have Chuck Norris or some other character actually acting the part of a Hitman, but no, this movie doesn't. All of the conflicts take place in open environments and nothing about these kills resemble hitman-like conduct. However, this doesn't really affect how amazingly awesome this film is. Norris kicks raw ass all while showing his soft side by teaching some kid how to fight white trash bullies. One thing I found somewhat strange was that when Chuck wants to teach the white trash kid's father not to beat his kid because the kid lost a fight to the Norris-trained neighbor boy(sorry if this is confusing, you'll understand if you see the movie) he decides to beat the shit out of the white trash father. I suppose if he kicks his ass this will make the father not want to kick his kid's ass? No, I think this would just contribute to the fathers rage; that white trash kid is gonna get one hell of a beating! Character developement is deep & plot is nonsensical. One of the characters is only capable of saying the word fuck. This movie is way ahead of its time and should be placed among the likes of The Godfather & The Wizard Of Oz. |
