I got this movie out of the library. I selected it because of the box. This is one of those B grade movies that keeps you watching because it is like watching a train wreck. Most of the actors are amateurs stumbling through their lines. About halfway through the movie you start wondering if the lead actress is going to take her clothes off--and she obliges. I have seen worse movies than this. This movie is mildly entertaining because it is so bad it is kinda good--in a funny sort of way.One scene has 5 thugs blasting away at the hero with shotguns and machine guns, but they all miss. Also it was interesting to see Martin Sheen's brother as an actor.

I payed one dollar for this movie so I knew it was going to suck. Frank, who wears a pirate shirt and looks similar to the 80's pop singer Rick Springfield has been locked up in jail for five years and now he's out looking for the guys that set him up. This movie has a sort of circular plot where after watching the movie for an hour, Frank is still in the same situation dealing with the same goons, an old guy and two fatties in mullets and trying to get this girl out of captivity, again. The situations are pretty silly especially as Frank seems to get his gun taken from him repeatedly. In the end they push an old car off a cliff and then some stupid lines and then its over. I don't think I have ever seen an action movie as lame as this one.

This is an example of using good actors to salvage a story plot that has been done a million times. Strong, tough, but nice guy (Danny Fendley) is done wrong by the mean, evil, owns the town rich guy (Joe Estevez) but the good guy wins in the end. Danny Fendley and Joe Estevez are two very good actors that do a good job with what they have to work with. The two men have a strong 'on screen' chemistry and both seem to bring the best out of each others character. Obviously the supporting cast were not as experienced but all did a reasonably good job. Danny and Joe are very convincing as as Frank and Xavier. Good guy vrs. Bad guy. There is a place for these movies in the entertainment world. The film was entertaining and the performances were strong. You won't get quite the special effects package that you will in a Bigger Hollywood action film but the effects are still impressive.

The really good ones suck you right in and you're oblivious to anything around you. Then there are those such as this one, where you simply chuckle or shake your head at their attempts to be serious. Frank has every reason to "have it in for" Xavier: Frank was imprisoned for five years, rather than implicate Xavier; Xavier was responsible for the death of Frank's girl; and Xavier took Frank's half-a-million dollars. So this movie is about Frank's vendetta against Xavier. He first meets and frees Xavier's reluctant concubine. Subsequently, they have many run-ins with Xavier and his crew, including a bunch of biker thugs. Best advice I can give to those considering watching this movie: After reading these comments, look at something else.
