Mr. T comes out fighting in Straight Line, an intense, unrelenting action thriller about the sinister mind-control plot of a power-mad man, and the immovable object that won't stop 'til he drops! Mr. T is T.S. (Too Strong) Turner, a "private investigator" called on to seek and destroy the vicious street thugs who are causing chaos all over the city's East End. These Punks are running wild - they are afraid of nothing. The Gang, called "The Future" is a radical clan who want their future all white! When he hears this, Turner sees red, and now he's out for blood! His hell-bent mission: find out who's controlling these kids, and stop them before the terrorism gets out of control!

Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
GazerRise Fantastic!
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
El_Guapo9 Celebrated Thespian Mr. T comes to the screen as TS (Too Strong) Turner. The best thing I can say about this sorry excuse for a film is, well...stay far, far away. Mr. T's choice of clothing is comical and the use of his mohawk as an accessory is also fun. He wears it slicked back for special occasions and up for the rigors of every day life as TS Turner.TS is faced with the dangerous gang that roams the streets doing terrifying things like yelling and throwing things during mayoral debates.The acting is poor and the story is worse. The movie's pacing suffers and makes things drag out for way too long. It also has a very corny feel to it throughout.I put this movie right up there in the list of the worst movies I have ever seen.1 out of 10.
digthedoug Like most others who stumble across this, I checked it out because, of course, it stars Mr. T. Plus the fact that his name in the movie is T.S. (for Too Strong) and the great tag-line ('What's the most dangerous distance between two points?') helped as well. Well, unfortunately it's quite disappointing. It's a made for TV movie, and involves Mr. T helping out some young punk turn his life around while investigating a plot to assassinate the first black mayor as well as another plot to train boys into a guerrilla army as well as 4 or 5 other plots of random things that have no reason to be there.Why does it stink? Mr. T kicks hardly any ass, I think he punches one guy, he has no great line and doesn't even speak that often. While the Christian tones are subtle and not too abundant, the 'after-school-special'-ness of it ranks very high.It unfortunately falls into that category of a bad movie, that's not bad enough to be entertaining, and since Mr T plays a pacifist, well that just about settles it.
