The first Chuck Norris movie I’ve seen – I don’t count Dodgeball (2004).
This movie is exactly like all of the parodies that followed. It defines the jingoistic ’80s but operates at a much lower level than the fare of Arnie and Sly. I turned it off after 15 mins and tried the sequel (originally planned as the first outing) but had to also turn that off after the following exchange:
“I’m just not tough like you,” a fellow soldier exclaims to Chuck.
You just know that Norris inserted that into the ‘script’, which is just a revenge fantasy for a lost war.
Shite, as expected.
