Also known as Viper, I hired this one night, not cause of Lamas, well may'be a little bit, but because it was R rated. As having had enough of him in Falcon Crest, and surviving him in Body Rock, that razzie nomination, well deserved, I thought I'd give this one ago. I would snub a lot of the Lorenzo flicks on the shelves, including the Snake eater's, cause I knew too well, it wasn't gonna be Oscar watching night. But with this one, wellllllll.... I was pleasantly surprised, not by Lamas's acting, that is 40 percent standard, but because of all the spectacular action, and some nice sex scenes, involving the blonde hottie, Lorenzo's doing. Lamas, used to be a cop, but was thrown in prison, for destroying evidence, that would put baby brother in prison. Now working as in a salvage yard, yeah he really sunk, and playing the piano, that's at least better than his acting, he's called upon by a messenger. The girlfriend employs Lamas to help baby brother Franklin, out of another rut, as owing a great debt to some really bad people. Personally I'd let the loser rot, but if I did, I wouldn't be guaranteed all this action in plenteous supply, but really I don't understand why idiot Lamas feels obligated to help the brother who's just gonna keep f...ing up. The real baddie, an Asian fatty guy, does Lorenzo's girl in both definitions of the word. He doesn't mind killing kids either, and also doesn't like it when you mess with his camera. John P Ryan (Bound, Breathless) at least adds real acting support as Lamas's ill father. If it's actin.... sorry if it's action you want, and heavy violence, you'll get it here, believe me. I know the main star is bad, but just overlook that. Lorenzo actually improved in that very slowwwwwwww moving show, The Bold And The Beautiful.
