Member Rating:  
Chuck Norris stars in this derivative action film (directed by his brother, Aaron Norris) which bears more than a passing similarity to Steven Seagal's Marked for Death. Norris plays Cliff Garret, a Seattle cop who is mortally wounded in a drug bust. Garret's condition is grave but he manages to pull through. However, the Seattle police have plans for him and put out the word that Garret has died. When Garret regains his strength, he is given a new identity as hit man Danny Grogan and is assigned to go undercover and infiltrate the crime family of Marco Luganni (Al Waxman). "Grogan" must bring both Luganni and rival gang-lord Andre Lacombe (Marcel Sabourin) into police custody. But his past comes back to haunt him in the person of Ronny Delany (Michael Parks), a goon from Grogan's Garret days, who threatens to blow his cover. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

    Chuck and Cannon's last good movie. Great B action movie. A must see for action fans.

    The movie is okay, but it's a little slow and the story tends to drag. The presentation is bad: it's in full-screen only, even though some scenes clearly indicate it was never intended for anything but wide-screen. The disc is horrible: despite what the description says, there are no special features, no language options, and no scene menu. It's a bare-bones DVD with one screen with Play Movie being the only option.
