does anyone else here think this movie is hilarious?
...him talking to those saudi arabians the way he did!? this movie is GOLD.
I just saw it today on Spike Tv, I couldn't stop laughing! Not in a way that makes fun of the movie, I love to see Chuck Norris kick ass, rather, just at the funny things that happend, like to bully's father for example. But that mullet took the cake!
shareHe had hair like Jean Claude Van Damme in Hard Target and the stuff with Tim from down the hall seemed like what you might get if Steven Seagal was a better actor. It was indeed strange. Almost as if the movie was originally written for Seagal (I could totally see Seagal talking about the whale that way, for example, or deliberately offending the Iranians like that) but they decided to go with Norris instead.
So... what you get is what Seagal might have been like in his earlier movies such as "Marked For Death" if he was a better actor and more likeable. It's almost like Norris was throwing down the gauntlet and saying "I can do that Seagal stuff better than he can. Should I wear my hair in a ponytail or is the mullet rockin'?"
ha... yeah, apparently, he said that the scene where he punched that kid's father through the screen door was his favorite scene from any movie.
shareThat was surprisingly well done when he punched that guy. Even though I could see it coming a mile away, it was very satisfying.
I liked what he said to Tim before the fight too and how he got the kids to stop before anybody was seriously hurt. That whole sequence had a nice vibe to it. Someone could be left wishing that Chuck Norris was their dad because of that part of the movie.

That was fun to watch, but realistically a dumb move; he's going to abuse his son a lot worse now.
They were Iranians.

Here is the Iranian scene.

I really like this movie, had so good time with it. There's many good one liners but Finnish subtitles are even better. When he shoots the Iranian bad guy through the window it's something like "Hey gay do a flip" instead of "Drop dead".
I miss movies like this.
