Tough and Deadly (1995 Video)
Tough and Deadly...to Watch

Warning: Spoilers
Incredibly boring movie about a top secret CIA agent (Billy Blanks) who loses his memory. He is befriended by an ex-cop, played by former wrestler Rowdy Roddy Piper. Together they get in fights about every three minutes. Blanks discovers he still has the reflexes of a killin' machine, even though he doesn't know why. Sound intriguing? It's not.

This is the kind of movie they used to put on the second or even third bill of a drive in movie. The story and direction would chase the customers out--or just played as background to couples making out in their cars. It's just fight after fight after fight. I really enjoyed Piper in "They Live", shot just a few years before this, but he's given very little of interest to do here, and Billy Blanks, as fine an athlete as he is, is not remotely interesting as an actor.
