While not as polished as a Van Damme movie from this era Forced To Kill is most definitely worth a watch. Great opening in the bar setting up the sheriff character played by the ever reliable Michael Ironside, good guy, bad guy, not sure at this point but hey it is Ironside so go with your gut on this one. We then get to meet our hero and it isn't long before he is punching and kicking his way into the movie. Not going to give a beat by beat account suffice to say our hero is put through the mill throughout physically and emotionally before turning on his captors. Plot lines aside the story moves along at a decent pace, the fight scenes are decent and apart from a few flat performances it still holds the attention.

Like an 80s film that got made too late this is a throwback to my youthful viewings on VHS and one I am glad I caught for the nostalgia vibe.
