Bounty Tracker

Starring Lorenzo Lamas - king of the C-class action movies. The plot ? It's your typical " They killed his family member . They made a BIG MISTAKE. " run of the mill revenge movie. The villain is played by Matthias Hues who I remember from "I come in peace" (aka "Dark angel"). He can't act (just like Lamas) , but he certainly has the look to play the villain.

All in all forgettable stuff. I found this movie in my local supermarket . It cost me 5$ . I regret having to pay for this trash.

I give it 1/10. For action junkies only.

Greetings from Lithuania.

"Bounty Tracker" (1993) was one of the movies i watched dozen of times when i was 8-10 years old on my old VHS cassette. What a great actionier that was. Recently i stumbled on this flick on TV, and with enjoyment i re watched it. 19 years have past since i last time saw it, and it's still is an interesting action thriller. I always taught that Matthias Hues / Erik Gauss was one of the most deadliest villains in a movies - yes, i know it's a B flick made specifically for videos, with kinda one dimensional characters, but still, he was a very cool villain.

Overall, 9/10 for "Bounty Tracker" - it delivers exactly what it promises to deliver and more - cool action scenes, deadly villain and charming , cool and bad ass Lorenzo Lamas - you can't ask for more.

Yeah, yeah I know this is not "Renegade", but still… it has such a strong resemblance to it. First of all, we have Lorenzo Lamas, the star of "Renegade", with his usual long hair, rugged looks, martial arts skills, not that solid acting skills and he is a bounty hunter. Well… the title of the film says "Bounty Tracker", just not to think that this has nothing to do with "Renegade". Well, it doesn't… but, it still has a big resemblance! What is the matter with you, people?! When you see most of these action, martial arts films, with Van Damme, Seagal, Lundgren and all others, they are just type casted for the sake of entertainment to play themselves over and over again. They just change their names, for example Lorenzo's name here is Johnathan Damone (the usual name for a action hero, you know – John, Jack, James, George, Casey, Bill, Jericho…), forget it, he is Vince Black, aka Reno Raines and shut up. The story is, of course… a revenge story , no more, no less, in "Renegade" Lamas is seeking justice, to clear his name, and also a vengeance, nothing far from this film, in "Renegade", they kill his girlfriend, here they kill his brother… so, we all know what happens next. This is just a usual action low budget film from the 90s, so turn of your brain and enjoy yourself. The only thing I like are the fight scenes, pretty well done. We also have some interesting players here, Matthias Hues for example, I think he is pretty good for playing villains in low budget films, he is tall, menacing and he has this evil looks, but no acting skills at all. But, always has this strange charisma, you just enjoy watching him as a villain. And we also have Cyndi Pass, ah, that little sexy, sexy from the 90s, damn… 90s were really hot. So, grab your chair, rent this film, if you really enjoy this kind of fun and watch it.

Lorenzo Lamas plays a long haired bounty hunter. Sound familiar? (Renegade) Well that's where the similarity ends. His rich brother is dead and he is on the trail of his killers in his brothers porsche. He hooks up with three home boys out to avenge the death of their mentor. Together they kick ass. There is a major martial arts scene where he takes on the whole dojo only to find the master waiting to do him in. Between barbs he catches his breath before taking on the master. It has got to be the longest stretch of karate footage in any of his movies(5 min.)and he shines. As he picks up a pole he gives out a deep "kiya" but doesn't get hurt till they turn to swords. This only gets you ready for a rough action scene at the end with Mathias Hues. The actions great. The double meanings come at you so fast you have to watch it a dozen times to make sure you got them all. And you'll enjoy it more each time you do!

This is Matthias at his gorgeous best! If you like him in Black Belt, I come in Peace, even Kickboxer 2 (as brief as his appearance was), you'll love him in this one. He is as fit and looks as good as I've ever seen him.

The plot is predictable, of course. We all know how what will happen in the end, but who cares!? You're in heaven every time Matthias is on the screen.

His presence overtakes the movie. He should have had top billing instead of 2nd billing. Matthias is what makes the movie really worth watching, especially his 1st fight sequence! Rent, or buy this one. You'll want to watch it over and over again. I guarantee if you are not a Matthias fan before, you'll be one after. Catch it, and you'll keep on catching it! Over and over and over again.
