powermandan There are three Chuck Norrises: Smooth-Face, Moustache-Face, and Beard-Face. The Beard-Face is probably the best-known as it is part of a Chuck Norris Joke: "Underneath Chuck Norris' beard, there's no chin just another fist," and they actually enacted that on Family Guy. Norris just looks like more of a badass with a full beard. He looked like an ass-kicker before, that's just the way he looks, but the beard added ferocity. For a few years, Norris had just a moustache because that was THE style for rugged men back then. Although Norris did just a few movies with a moustache, this still remains the best movie he did during that time. Forced Vengeance paved the way for Walker Texas Ranger. In this, Norris plays Texas cop named Josh Randle, who's general looks mirrors Walker's. When his friends from Hong Kong turn down an offer to turn their casino to ruthless mobsters, they are executed. Soon, deadly goons pop up and try to destroy Josh and his other friends, while Josh tries to get to the bottom of the deal and learn about his new enemies. The fight scenes are very well-done and the plot is well- constructed. The music is also great too. Pretty much everything this movie has is great and there are very unforgettable moments. Like there's one scene where Norris does a flying sidekick off the ledge of a building. That is very iconic. But is perhaps best remembered in Good Guys Where Black, which is Moustache-Norris' second best. I'd say the best scene is when Norris fights a man in front of lights in a casino where all that's seen are their silhouettes. These set the stage for vintage Norris!

ebiros2 Above comment would have been another Chuck Norris joke, but in this movie, it's the truth. This is Chuck Norris in his hardest baddest role, and his early career monument to the legend of Chuck Norris.Chuck shows no mercy to anyone that gets in his way. The unlucky bad guys doesn't realize what they're up against, as Chuck Norris obliterates them one by one. If they had internet in 1982, they would have fled Hong Kong long before Chuck Norris' plane landed there.Chuck just keeps giving his icy cold glare throughout this movie. There's no charm, or sweetness in his character. He just coldly executes everyone who opposes him.This is one of the best Chuck Norris movie from the early '80s, and is worth every minute to see it if you're a martial arts or Chuck Norris movie fan.

sveknu Attention: Chuck Norris is at it with his really, really unspectacular fighting moves and horrible acting. Are you looking for excitement, stay clear. In fact, this movie had potential. It's set in Hong Kong, and that's often a plus when it comes to fighting movies. Hong Kong is also mentioned by Norris as "The Place" in this movie. The great locations help a bit, but since Chuck Norris isn't' exactly "The Action Star", then this is definitely not "The Movie" (ha-ha). To be more specific, I guess people already know that the plot alone can't save a movie like this. It's the action scenes that make the difference or not. And as mentioned, Norris fails on every level in this movie when it comes to that. He's better suited to army/machine-gun movies (like "Delta Force") than karate-flicks like this one.

lotus_chief I saw this movie on TV a LOOONG time ago, and the other day I just kept thinking of this Chuck Norris flick where there was a fight scene where it was nothing but silhouettes in a neon light background on a staircase. After flipping through my uncle's VHS collection, I find this! You gotta love the old Chuck Norris flicks; he was what Steven Segal and Van Damme were in the 90s in the 70s and 80s. We see a 'Godfather-type' theme here, it gives for a decent plot for a bare bones martial arts action movie...and Chuck Norris delivers. It's a shame what he's become, because he was just RAW! An all around enjoyable old school action film. Anyone looking for anything else that what's being presented here is just misguided. *** out of **** stars.
