This stinker might have worked as a Jackie Chan style action comedy, but played straight it is a total waste of celluloid.
Norris can't act. That's not surprising for an "action star", but he's worse than most. Schwarzenegger in "Conan" was more believable than Norris. He is wooden, monotone, and I couldn't tell which emotions he was trying to display, unless it was "angry loner".
Carradine -- well he's never been able to act and he doesn't even have the excuse of starting out as an athlete.
As is usual for this genre, the plot is absurd and the action ridiculous, but you expect this and are willing to tolerate it in exchange for good performances. Unfortunately, there aren't any good performances of any type in this stinker.
