Pluskylang Great Film overall

Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Bezenby Reb (short for Rebort due to an admin error on his birth certificate) Brown is back! With a moustache to show he's more mature now or something! I was all fired up for this one, itching to see Reb doing his trademark screaming/machine gun firing he did so well in Strike Commando and Robowar. I was not disappointed. Because I never have any expectations when watching a Reb Brown film.The film opens with Reb piloting a helicopter while blowing the crap out of a bunch of revolutionaries led by none other than Mike Monty, who appears in every Fillipino production ever made. While Reb's making things explode and bodies fly through the air, the local militia are going toe to toe with the rebels. Monty gets captured and Reb saunters off to his hotel in order to use his moustache to lure Shannon Tweed to his room, which almost works until some guy shows up and gives him grief for killing Monty, which makes Reb look like a bad guy in Shannon's eyes. For a few seconds.But who are the good guys and who are the bad guys? Reb's just as confused as us when he discovers that he got played by the local militia and some other American guy. Mike Monty got captured and killed in captivity (off screen as I guess they could only afford Monty for one day). Reb understandably goes nuts which is fine by me because up to this point all he'd done was mooch about looking subdued and trying to hit on Shannon Tweed.Reb breaks one guy's neck and the next thing the bad guys have him tied up and are giving electric shocks directly into his moobs! This gives Reb the opportunity to do some screaming and pass out in a cross eyed manner that had me chuckling. Don't worry though, Reb does escape, picks up Shannon on the way, and heads off to join the rebels.Seems the rebels aren't too bothered that Reb was the guy who decimated their numbers at the start of the film. Reb doesn't seem too bothered who ends up looking down the barrel of his gun so easy come easy go. As long as he can shoot at things and scream, the job is done. There was this one guy who kept staring at Reb all the time (especially in the back of that truck…God knows what expression Reb thought he was pulling in that scene). I think that's called interpersonal drama.This really badly made film has dodgy editing, sound problems (sometimes you can't hear what the actors are saying due to background noise, sometimes the background noise doesn't quite match up with the edits – look out for the crickets who disappear from shot to shot), bad acting from Reb and Shannon including Reb pretending to 'choke' on smoke and Shannon pretending to feel guilty about stabbing a guy in the back. It all kind of comes together around Reb blowing up everything he sees and screaming in his rock star voice. Shannon also gives Reb a chewie during the obligatory love scene.Did you know that the Phillipines use to be linked to the Asian main land? It's now an island due to all those Italian and Fillipino action movies blowing the land to hell.And…big grin…and…freeze frame! THE END.

whpratt1 Found this film for one dollar ($1.00) and the film was a complete waste of time. Reb Brown,(Mark Hardin), played a military adviser in South America and was successful in capturing the leader of rebel soldiers operating out of the dense jungles. However, Mark joins the opposite side after some horrible tortures were inflicted or women and men. In one scene as Mark is having a drink in a hotel bar, his eyes catch the glimpse of sexy long legs Sandra Spencer (Shannon Tweed),"Dead Sexy",01. Mark and Sandra have the extreme hots for each other and even make passionate love on some very hard rocks, with no time for the comforts of a bed. This is a horrible film and not worth wasting the time to even look at IT.

AssProphet Audio:Seriously I've never seen a movie with worse audio. There are scenes where people are walking through the grass, and you can hardly hear them over their footsteps. They must be miking their feet. You know how in some movies they forget a line, so they have to dub it in on a shot of the back of someone's head. Here the editors were not that clever. There is actually a scene where Shannon Tweed's character says her line without moving her lips at all!I'm pretty sure for their background sound they played effects loops live while shooting, because in a lot of scenes the sound effects will either be different or be absent whenever the camera changes angles.I could write a lot more on how bad the audio is in this movie.Other Nuggets:In this movie they probably consider the opening credits to be special effects because they seemed so challenging to produce. The main title and the first few names in the opening credits are in white text over a white sky, and they wobble as if they were carefully hand painted on each frame.The reuse of extras in this movie is incredible. There are about 15 rebels in the cast, and yet in any given battle thirty or more of them will be killed. If only the film were high enough quality to distinguish which ones were dying over and over.It's also interesting to note that the rebels are usually killed by explosions that are always between 30 and 200 feet away. There is one scene one scene when some of the rebels are running out of their huts in the rebel base, and one huts shakes as the rebel exits the door. It makes you wonder if the hut will last long enough to encounter the inevitable explosion.There is a blue helicopter that looks as menacing as a pair of running shorts, but somehow is equipped with an infinite supply of missiles. When they show the missiles being shot out of the helicopter's missile bays, the often shoot of in unpredictable directions very closely resembling large bottle rockets. They still manage to hit their targets with ease, which as noted above is always a very safe distance away from the rebels they kill. Note the recycled footage of the pilot pressing the LIVE button to fire the missiles (because it's printed vertically, the first few times we saw it, we read it as the "EVIL" button).Notice how the grenade launcher they use, produces identical explosions to those that are created by the helicopter missiles. It's also fun in many scenes how the actor in the foreground is shooting in a completely different direction than the group of enemy soldiers that he is killing. And frequently, characters shoot a disproportionate number of bullets to the soldiers who are killed (like when a short burst fire kills a large group of enemies).Yes this movie is very very very bad. The plot was thought out almost as well as a 5 year old's soccer game, and the editing is the worst I've ever seen. But honestly, sometimes it's fun spend 90 minutes laughing at a group of adults who sincerely took part in such a terrible movie.

William Reb Brown plays a military adviser who changes side and helps out the rebel when the rebel leader was killed without trial. Now he is on run with an innocent lady (Shannon Tweed) and teams up with the rebels to fight never ending (boring) battles in this standard action film. Brown has a geeky mustache in this film and Tweed looks bored. Not recommended.
