American commandos in Viet Nam raid an enemy depot. During the operation they are discovered and the general in charge sets off the explosives before his men get clear. All but one are killed. The survivor makes it to a small village where he's hailed as a savior. He briefly helps the people before being rescued. He is sent back to the village to help organize resistance but arrives to find everyone dead. He is captured and tortured by Soviet and Vietnamese bad guys.
Testosterone pumped action film gets sillier and sillier as it goes on, with torture sequences that will have you on the floor laughing. You will not believe that anyone could have been even remotely serious in this out there exploitation film that is nominally a rip off of the Rambo movies. Give the producers credit for keeping things moving and action packed but where you watched the film at the start because it was interesting action drama by the end you're watching because the film has become so over the top and silly that you want to see where its going to go. Granted its clear towards the end that the film is being slightly tongue in cheek, but at the same time its maybe a little too much.
I liked the film bit at the same time I wish it had maintained one tone through out the whole thing. Its worth a look preferably with a bucket of popcorn, a soda and some people to laugh with.
