Episode 131 - Mercenary Fighters (1988)



One would think a 1980s action movie from Cannon Films starring Reb Brown would be a match made in Heaven. There are plenty of genre classics made that tick more than one of these boxes, so one that hits them all should work out for everyone. Unfortunately, Mercenary Fighters fumbles the ball in just about every way and manages to make this sure winner a disappointment. How this happened is anyone's guess.

It's not quite a total flop, but Mercenary Fighters misses the mark where it counts and where other Cannon movies (and Reb Brown flicks) managed to understand why people went to see these films. It's just not what it could be.

Check out the full episode to see just what we thought on this one.
