Código de Honra

Cynthia and Richard work well together another good martial arts action film. But the story line is old. But you got to love Kathryn Bach. The background of Los Angeles and Hollywood is a character in itself. Brian Thompson is a great villain. The director Terence winkless it shows that he is not good with martial actors. Even though he directed power rangers.

Then there is Alex Datcher I think her role could have been expanded. This Movie led to a part 2. But part 2 fails in comparison to the original. So great action great fight choreography. The acting is so 90s. But when it comes down to Cynthia and Richard are two of the best.

RAGE AND HONOUR. I saw this back in 1996 video release. I wasn't really too happy about this one.

Basically, the story was so confusing at times..

Well, all-in-all this one was worth a watch, but I wasn't happy with it.

Cynthia maybe a good action movie star. But it's a shame that the script fails to bring up the movie questionwise..

I think Cynthia needs a decent script rather than this chop-socky mess of a film. Good, but not that good. Too much pappy show in this one!

Witnessing a drug deal involving local gang members and cops, an Australian police officer feels he can no longer be just an observer. He joins forces with a local teacher who just happens to be a karate expert and together they try to take back the streets.

A standard story is invigorated by some quirky and surreal characters and a slight step away from the traditional action plotting, however, there's a tendency of the plot getting a little too complex and twisty for its own good, and the pace can flag in some spots especially when there's talking. But the story, the action, the chemistry between Rothrock and Norton, their one liners and the menacing presence of Brian Thompson compensates for these downsides.

Richard Norton and Cynthia Rothrock have teamed up several times in martial arts movies, either as partners or as opponents, both in Hong Kong and in America. This is one of their American pairings, and it cannot qualify as one of their best. The story is sloppy in parts, and the fight scenes are only so-so (and sometimes poorly shot). However, the two leads make an enjoyable team, and the movie gets some extra life from a colorful supporting cast that includes Brian Thompson as the main villain, a quite funny Alex Datcher as "Hannah the Hun", Stephen Davies as a druggie ex-stockbroker that everyone calls "Baby", not one but TWO (Terri Treas and Catherine Bach) stunning redheads (I love redheads), and in a bit part, female kickboxer Kathy Long. A good B-movie cast in a mediocre B-movie. (**)

I really liked this movie. I saw it on Sky Movies in 94. Cynthia is my hero! Always beating up the bad guys!

But Cynthia is joined by a great partner named Richard Norton who is a bit of a dish in my opinion.

So basically it's Kris (Cynthia) and Preston (Richard) against the drug King and Queen of LA. The psychotic Conrad Drago and the beautiful Rita Carrion. Who have a load of bumbling lackeys at their disposal including dirty cops, Fast Eddie the nightclub owner and car thief extraodinaire and of course Hannah the Hun, who has a gang of women fighters who do contract beatings. Oh and lets not forget Rita's bodyguard who is may be on the baddie's side but is a very honourable man.

So how can the heroric duo of Kris and Preston defeat all these foes? Well they have Baby! Yes baby the homeless former stockbroker.

I found Brian Thompson's portrayal of Conrad Drago very evil and the brother sister thing was a good storyline element.

OK so I like this movie, I'll shut up now :)
