Director: Paul Aaron
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
With a dope epidemic on the streets and a karate cop-killer on the loose, undercover narc Jennifer O'Neill enlists the martial artistry of (real-life champ) Norris to help stomp the bad guys. A typically plot-heavy script from Ernest Tidyman survives unimaginative direction to deliver that current rarity, an unpretentious action movie. A bit out of its depth at the top of a bill, but vastly superior to the ostensibly similar Jaguar Lives.Author: PT
