An ex-investigative journalist can't sleep he walks the street as a vigilante, taking on cases. He is driven by the murder of his wife and daughter years before and uses his martial arts skill to fight crime. When he finds a new drug Instant Iron creating crime, he is hired to stop the supply. Coincidentally a young girl hires him to find her father, a chemist, who may have been kidnapped to make more of the drug for criminals does this connect to the man who murdered his wife?
I hate most TVM's. I especially hate those that are only designed to become cheap TV shows. This was clearly one of those th plot sets up all the elements the producers wanted for the series, a love interest, a bar room friend with whom he has a shady past, a revenge story line, a criminal nemesis to wheel out regularly and some sort of semi-super powers. Unfortunately they forgot to add any type of spark this is evident from the credits where we see the director is
oh dear
Alan Smithee.
The plot is lazy and predictable, the action is worst. The film is dull throughout and it's little wonder no-one picked it up. It's not helped by having cardboard cut out Adrian Paul in the lead role can't he act at all there's nothing funnier in the whole film than seeing him wailing to the sky in despair after the loss of his kid! Brian Thompson (X-files' Alien Bounty Hunter) is OK but the rest are as bad as Paul.
There's nothing to like here, the film is lazy and poor in every area. It's dull and even Adrian Paul seems to think he's better than this and if HE looks down his nose at something then you know it'' gotta stink.
