Even 10 years on its bad
24 August 2000
I remember seeing this film when I was very young and I remember I wanted to see it again - so I did, ten years later! And I must say it's still as bad and cheesy as it was back then.

Lorean Avedon must go to Cambodia to rescue his Vietnamese girlfriend from Russian and Vietnamese troops and runs into his arms dealing buddy Mac.

By now I forgot the plot mainly because the acting and hammy action sequences were really bad. Cythnia Rothrock is in this film, and she does a pretty good job - its a shame her fight sequences weren't on as long as her screen presence (which wasn't very long to begin with).

There are some quite memorable pieces, including the scene where Shaolin men jump around Avedon and Mac and tie them up in their clothes and the fight sequence between Avedon and the huge Russian played by Matthius Hues (whom sounds French throughout the whole movie).

The final fight sequence is the only thing worth watching, and it builds up into the last brutal part where Hues is tied up in some rope and is dragged into an Alligator pit by a Jeep - Hues tries to get up but pulls in the Jeep on top of him.

If you want to watch a good film, don't watch this - its not worth it.
