from the first time i saw the box cover of the movie and the stretch out photography i think this guy and this friend of the scwarz must be like 6 foot or 6ft 2in . not 5 foot tall . not that and it his fault . at any rating and i turn on the movie one cool night in tucson and out on the second story deck with a good cigar and let it roll . at that time my wife be have an affair and thing be go down hill for me and so i need a good diversion . but and as bad a the movie be . i totally enjoy it and with a bottle of merlot too and i might admit . truly and i have watch this movie many time . it always make me feel good . it not that it try too hard to be cool or that it so close to hit the mark for an action film . it frantic . and then truly clueless . then frantic again . it the best of the best when it come to a slow speed chase scene . wow . i never felt safer in my life . warm and happy too . i be thankful that they conserve on the gasoline during the chase and due to less production in the summer month . anywho the direction be uninspired the action and fight sequence need to be choreograph and or re choreograph and tighten up and the sound be off the delivery do not hit you and it just keep on go and the other way . the local of that village that they be in and the town rather and be off cue they also do not seem to follow what be happen very well and the would look and even tare into the camera lens . like a deer in the head light kind of thing only some of them with a smile and a smile deer . i feel bad because columbu i just bet have a good heart and a caring spirit for people in america as well a for his own countryman . however baretta island be very lethargic and unbelievable . even still i like it a lot . my now x wife hat it and but i love it . the funny thing be and i be pretty discriminate when it come to movie i like or even love . all in all and i like franco . so there it be . a a movie add addendum to this if you like kill a few hour with truly fun to watch and straight to video b movie or bad movie for your little library collection then and if you can find it and check out the big sweat ( 1991 ) with robert z dar . you know the big guy from tango and cash . the big sweat and a bomb of a cop story with no real plot discovery and act that be so lame and it might as well be on crutch and at the end of the big sweat i think they run out of money and because they have a picture of the cast and just set it on fire and let it burn during the credit . good fun . but all in all and not as good a baretta island and i give it a 1 and an overall rating of awful for awful good b movie . i be wait for the sequel and maybe like baretta revenge on montazuma ( franco take a mexican vacation and get sick on the water then and declare war on the water co. ) or baretta powder war where a he would stake out a large drug lord in his country and chemically gene splice and create a hybrid super bug ( insect ) that would be breed and drop into the cocaine field and eat the coke and upon pass it through the bug and it form a chemical reaction that turn the coke to pure powdered sugar . then another sequel he would have to get the young people rescue from excessive sugar addiction and so on . he could get a major tooth paste company to endorse and partially fund the project with careful product placement in the feature . right .
