I had such high hopes!
Amazing actor Marc Singer together with legend Chuck Norris!
It should be a success!
Marc Singer did a fantastic job in the TV-series "V" as Mike Donovan back in the 80s, and Chuck Norris was one of the 80s greatest in everything from Delta Force.to Walker Texas Ranger!
In fact they have both done so many great things in so many productions since then, that this should be a walk in the park!
But, no. No, no, no!
The acting is just so bad! And I am not writing this as a movie critics opinion, I am just comparing to their previous roles!
And of course it is all due to the directing!
I love these actors and I feel so sorry for them having to team up with director (writer, actor) Derek Ting in this movie! Or should we say student film? The credits show only ten (10) people and one (1) voice-over. Also, the writing, lighting, cgi and music score all seem to be done to confuse and worsen the movie!
This movie is so bad that is...bad!
If for some reason you still want to see this, make sure you have very, very low expectations and you might somewhat enjoy it!

There's something to be said about a truly disastrous film, a film forever indelible in your memory because it's so uniquely bad, it can only be deemed an achievement. The sort of film where everyone involved was definitely trying to do something; it's just not entirely clear what. Agent Recon is that film.
How do you mess up this badly when you have Chuck Norris? Chuck Norris deserved better than this. Not sure where they found that lead, but he is a complete buffoon. This film is an insult to Chuck Norris and deeply upsetting to his fans.
There is nothing good to be said about this film, except that Agent Recon is a good example of bad filmmaking.

I usually don't review films on here, but I had to voice my disgust. The acting is absolutely horrible. Chuck Norris is literally sitting still and talking like he is reading straight off a script for most of the movie. Then toward the end he stands in the middle of the open shooting a minigun he is holding, which is magically shooting endless bullets despite not having any ammo belt feeding it. Then he starts punching and kicking the bad guys just like any cranky 80-something year old man would. Almost the entire movie takes place in one compound out in the middle of nowhere. It is like some school kid wrote this script and directed this movie for a school assignment. I don't think the SyFy channel will even ever show this, which would say something.
I truly can't imagine why Chuck would even allow himself to be seen in this. The level of acting is below that of earthworms.
One of the worst films I've ever seen. Storyline is complete garbage. Fighting was so predictable and unexciting. It puts the term science fiction to shame by the lack of imagination and attention to detail. There's no unpredictable outcome that keeps you in suspense.
I fell asleep several times through this and will use it again if I have trouble falling asleep some nights.
I can't even think of other ways to describe how bad this was. What a complete waste of time it was to watch!
Don't watch this!

My son and I watched this because we are big Chuck Norris fans. We should have trusted the other reviews. Not only did the plot make almost no sense, it seemed to forgets on plot most of the time. You learn at the start that bad guys can only be killed with shots to the liver (so not a spoiler IMHO) yet most shots seem to be to the shoulder. Camera work really enjoyed lots of close ups over and over. They are in the desert, no it's forest mountains, I mean a cave, what? It just made no sense. Acting was average but hard to tell since lack of a plot tended to distract. Green screen was glaringly obvious, especially at the end.
