i was truly amazed by this movie because it has a good script,good partner for Cynthia(Stacy ketch)and pretty good villains.there are some pretty good fight scenes for Cynthia (where she shows as her martial arts skills) which is unusual for a TV us movie with low budget.this is probably the best us movie of Cynthia alongside with fast getaway i guess.i will give this movie 7.5/10 because the female villain disappears from movie don't know where so i expected a fight between her and Cynthia at the end of the movie.but i was disappointed.so i recommend you this movie if you want to see an action comedy like die hard.
I do not care much for stereotypes, simple dialogs, flat action or false critics.
This is, why i could only recommend everybody, who wants to spend a nice evening with a really funny, witty and action packed movie, to have a close look at this one. You might consider watching it over and over again, smooth action, nice dialogs, a good script and a lot of fun. Earlier movies with C. Rothrock took advantage of her martial arts skills, while later ones were unworthy, compared to here acting talents. This one has the right mixture, combined with an excellent male partner, up to the culminating end scene. There are only so many movies of this quality, so... judge for yourself.

Stacy Keach plays about to retire former gung ho cop, Harris Stone, who's just looking to cruise along until retirement day. Somehow or other he ends up with Charlotte Heller as his new sidekick, which he is initially quite happy about. What trouble can she cause? Lots. She's an ex-Navy SEAL (played by real life martial arts champ, Cynthia Rothrock) and she causes plenty of trouble. However, Stacy Keach looks bored and Cynthia Rothrock looks more concerned about showing off her martial arts prowess to let the film rise above the ordinary. Stumbling from one disaster to another, they finally end up confronting a group of terrorists who have taken a hostage in a shopping mall. Where else? If you're bored out of your tree and want to waste an hour and a half of your life then watch it. Rating: 3/10
Is there some type of discrimination going on at U.S police departments ? Just curious because everytime I see a cop drama from America ( Especially one made as a TVM ) it seems no one can become a detective unless they are a family man with just a few months left in the job , and all police chiefs must be black , while all recruits to the plains clothes division must be females who have a black belt in some martial art
Oh and guess what IRRESISTABLE FORCE is about ? That`s right it`s a TVM with a family man who works as a detective with only a few months left in the job , and his chief is black and he`s assingned a new female partner who`s got a black belt in karate . What else can I tell you ? I can`t remember and I only watched it last night . That probably tells you a lot in that case

What do you get when you combine Stacy Keach and Cinthia Rothrock? An explosive combination of martial arts and fine acting talent. Stacy Keach is one of my favorite actors and is a true diplomat of the art of good film making. Cinthia is the type of sweet and sassy babe perfect for her role in this movie. I myself have always been afraid of shopping malls, and this movie really played on my greatest fears in life. All I have to say is wow.
