fred dryer star a a gung ho marine who round up the troop and conduct a rescue mission in response to the u. s government underwhelming response to his command officer ( brian keith ) abduction . of course it be the arab who be behind it and basically this be jingoism at it most hideously lame . the movie have an interesting cast ( brian keith and joanna pacula and paul winfield and sasha mitchell ) but all of these counterpart be mainly waste in favor of fred dryer charisma less performance which consist of grunt and look deeply tick off . the movie seem to live in a timeless vortex where repetition rule the day . everything about the movie be tire and clichéd but the detail be so groan inducingly lame and so absurd you just keep roll your eye in disdain . all of this would be enjoyable have death before dishonor contain some punch in the action sequence but unfortunately these one side action sequence feature a three digit body count on one side and while only one good guy dy . at this type of ratio and it be no wonder the movie go into obscurity . out of 4 ( bad ) .
