    I gave it 2 stars

    This was absolutely horrible.

    Horrible in so many ways.

    So why did I give 2 stars?

    No, I was not drunk or stoned.

    It was so bad, it was so horrible and so out of it in a non-sensible way and it was trying to be a serious movie.

    There was no real direction that this was going - because it tried to be too much and ended up being nothing.

    When it's that bad - and you realize this, but you still keep watching to see how bad it really gets - then well, you screw around with the rating system - just like the people did who worked on this movie and gave it all 10.

    The others gave it 1.

    To balance it out, I gave it 2- but in reality, it's worth 1.

    -10 Rotten Tomatoes

    Perhaps the worst movie I have ever seen. Broken down actors, seriously comic special effects and awful acting.

    "O...K...." Cheesy Action Flick

    I will admit, this was actually "moderately" entertaining for a cheesy action flick... but straight up 10/10 star?? cough cough... have to be kidding right...

    The majority of the acting is just barely passable... Expect heavy use of CGI for muzzle flashes / blood splatter / explosions... Surprisingly, a couple of the fight scenes looked fairly well choreographed...

    All in all though, this is like a cheap version of the Expendables or something with even more lunacy filled action scenes...

    My suggestion... if you've watched every B-rate 80s and 90s action flicks already... hey, go for it... Just don't set your sights too high... Cause this is pretty bad... ( I'm still giving 4 stars, since I suspect this movie was done on a pretty tight budget... and the CGI was actually not "awful"... )

    Great plot and production value!!!

    Loved this film! Great plot and production value! The entire cast is fantastic, especially Mel Novak and Laurene Landon!

    Glad to see Mel Novak is still going strong!

    Being in some of my favorite 70's & 80's martial arts flicks (Game Of Death, Black Belt Jones, Eye For An Eye) I'm glad to see Mel Novak is still going strong! This movie is a fun action flick.

      The charter aircraft flying into LAX with the Japanese Yakuza is totally different from the one from which they disembark. Aircraft model types and registration differ greatly.
