Dragon force

Bruce Baron plays a goverment agent Jack Sargent who joins and teams up with the Dragon Force (not Powerforce) to find and rescue a kidnapped Princess (played by Mandy Moore, not the singer). The force is headed by Bruce Li (bruce clone) and there's even bad Ninjas in the film! Elevator music-ish stock music and above average budget. Sargent even has a old chinese guy who make spy gadgets (even has a James Bond in-joke). There is nudity, action, and some good fighting scenes. Released by Bedford Entertainment in the U.S., and not to be confused with THE BIG RASCAL released the same year with Bruce Li.

From the very opening macho shots of our hero oiled down and pumping iron in a gym whilst a particularly groovy track plays over the opening credits, you just know that this is going to be a very tacky albeit fun flick.

Sure enough it doesn't disappoint, this is B-movie fun from start to finish!

Bruce Baron who genre fans will instantly recognise as the star of a number of the hilarious cut and splice ninja outings as perpetrated by Godfrey Ho and Joseph Lai appears here as Jack Sargent, a sort of play boy secret agent who is assigned to rescue a princess who has been kidnapped by some stereotypically nefarious individuals.

Along the way he meets and is subsequently initiated into the clandestine group of the films title, Dragonforce, headed by Bruce Li. Cue lots of martial arts action, some very amusing tongue in cheek humour and a noteworthy scene of entirely gratuitous full frontal female nudity and hey presto, you have a highly entertaining one and a half hours!

This film is very rare to find nowadays but is definitely well worth a look if you can track down a copy. Highly recommended!

The late Bruce Baron once renamed this "Nina Farce"... well, I saw Ninja movies that were worse than this. Baron stars in this weird extravaganza as an undercover cop recruited in a secret squad leaded by Bruce Li. Another member is moustached stuntman Tong Kam Tong. They must rescue a princess kidnapped by colorful Ninjas hired by a Russian Barry White lookalike. Basically no-screenplay, just tons of fancy and funny action with a captivating music score by local composer Babida. Beald-head Tong Tin Hey plays an henchmen. Director Michael King was brother of famous director Johnny Mak (Long arm of the law). Jacky Chen Shao Lung (The growling tiger) is the Kung-Fu director. Bruce Li made one more movie (Pink trap) and then retired. Released in HK 12/16/82 it grossed a passable 1,385,425,000 HK dollars. I saw this in a theatre 1982 and still have affection for this joke of a movie.
