Chuck Norris' Forced Vengeance

Be prepared. I took notes.

I was honestly a little worried about watching Forced Vengeance.   It was the third movie in a 3-pack of Chuck Norris flicks my dad lent me. Part of me wanted to just get it out of the way, while another part was anxious to see if it could out-do the crappy 90-minute flicks I sat through before. Well, I was honestly impressed. In Forced Vengeance we see Chuck Norris in Hong Kong, fighting to save his friend's daughter from big-business-type thugs. The Lucky Dragon Casino is the prize in the eyes of Osirus... and it's up to Chuck Norris to find out who he is and stop him. Two of his friends have been murdered in an attempt to lure The Lucky Dragon, and now the mob is after him too. 

The Good: In the first two minutes or so we are treated to four, count them four, roundhouse kicks. These same roundhouse kicks appear later in the movie, and were used for the opening credits. We have a total of nine amazing roundhouse kicks (not counting the four that were repeated from the opening, that would make thirteen) and each one is totally lethal. The story is fun, even if it is simple. Classic good guy must stop the bad guys stuff. But Chuck Norris is fortunate enough to run all over Hong Kong with two superbly attractive women. His blonde girlfriend really has some nice boobs. I wasn't planning on saying that, but I couldn't help myself. We get a little bit of nudity in this one, and if you can keep your ears focused as well during the strip club scene you'll also hear a rendition of Rick James' "Superfreak". The action sequences are exciting, and there's a good element of humor in the film as well. 

The Bad: I can't honestly come up with anything I didn't like in this movie. It's really a lot of fun. So let's just say that it would've been cool if Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked The Earth for good measure. 

The Verdict: Forced Vengeance completely makes up for the time I wasted watching the previous two Chuck Norris movies. In fact, I'd watch this one again and again. Ta Ta!
