David carradine leads the way in this all action epic, which is basically the Great Escape, but set in Veatnam, but with a corrupt Vietnamese prison camp general, as played by Mako and a traitorous double crossing American soldier Sparks as played by Charles R Floyd. The basic story revolves around Carradine getting captured by the Veatcong and meeting up with the corrupt Vietnamese general who steals the Gold from his captors like watches and gold necklace's. Anyway he is desperate to get back to his "home" in America.
Anyway, there is not enough action scenes particularly in the middle of the film, even though it does pick up towards the end with a large battle scene where Carradine saves a American firebase under attack from hordes of Vietnamese soldiers, single handily added to that, a rushed climax which involves Carradine running around a small village while killing several soldiers. This film is good for b action movie fans and little else, but still contains some good harmless fun.
