Whiteforce

this movie is not even viewable any more. It's a low budget action flick starring Sam Jones and no one else even worth mentioning. The plot is kind of weak and you don't even care about the characters. There are still some funny moments.

really bad sound effects.

laser discs when dropped sound like coins random speed ramps the highway scene felt like it was filmed all in one take it was kind of weird. the movie flowed like if someone had a camera guy not take any cuts so it was shot like a home video.

overall watch if you like Sam Jones even if you do its still kind of weak.

My review was written in June 1989 after watching the movie on New Star video cassette.

Sam Jones makes a convincing he-man hero in the otherwise ho-hum "Whitefore", one of three actioners with "Force" in the title he's made recently.

Headed direct to video, Far East opus marks an underwhelming return of Eddie Romero, whose '70s exploitation films for AIP and Dimension Pictures were a lot more fun for drive-in fans.

Jones is accused of murdering his partner Ken Metcalfe, when in fact Timothy Hughes, a megalomaniac drug lord, is responsible. The former "Flash Gordon" (billed as Sam J. Jones a decade back) is stuck with Metcalfe's spunky daughter Kimberley Pistone dodging bullets as both sides search for a laserdisc which has the incriminating information about the drug cartel on it.

Jimmy Fabregas provides a modicum of comic relief as Jones' sidekick. Henry Tefay's script is merely functional: in-joke that the villain is named "Alex Korda" is hardly yock-inducing for film buffs. Action scenes are perfunctory and Romero omits the t&a footage that once was his forte.
