An embarrassing movie
2008-11-07 - Jeff Speakman is a fantastic martial artist ..... but this movie, like all his movies since The Perfect Weapon, is horrible ..... machine guns, car wrecks, bad dialogue and plot - and the video of Jeff's American Kenpo techniques is wasted by bad angles and no filming imagination .... I'd like to see Jeff Speakman in a movie made by Jet Li or Jackie Chan's crew, or by the crew from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon ..... I'll wait .... don't waste your time with this bomb ... 1 star is a gift

KIRK GOES KRAZY
2004-10-13 - William Shatner has never been called a great actor. True, he guided STAR TREK into immortality, but that was mainly because of the series itself, with Shatner's Captain Kirk becoming more of a caricature to be revered as opposed as an acting conquest. In this entertaining, if improbable, movie, Shatner plays Aiden Carvell, an advertising executive, who is on his way to becoming a state senator. Jeff Speakman plays his campaign manager who discovers that Senator Carvell is up to some sneaky, anti-government activities, like funding a militia group that would take over America! Speakman's martial arts training enables him to become a veritable superman in his quest to take Shatner down. Lisa Darr is his supportive wife who gets caught up in the mayhem; Chris Lemmon has a small role as an FBI agent supervising witness protection for Speakman and his family. There are lots of car chases, bullets flying and an almost humorous climax between Shatner and Speakman. Speakman is a martial arts Shatner; not a great actor but a commanding presence nonetheless.
You could do a lot worse on a rainy October night.

This would've been good material for MST3K!
1999-12-02 - William Shatner has to support his life of luxury. Horses, girlfriends. He plays a Presidential candidate in this one. Although I can't say his performance has changed through the years; it was his over acting that makes this so entertaining. The ending where he battles the Jeff Speakman "good guy" character makes this worth it. Seeing Shatner jump out of a helicopter was like somthing out of his Captain Kirk era. Mystery Science Theater 3000 would have a field day with this one! The former program could be revived with all of Shatner's bad films. Now if only he would sell the rights........

One star is too generous.
1999-05-16 - Aiden Carvill (no relation to James, and portrayed by William Shatner) is a Senate candidate who is also the kingpin in a conspiracy of right-wing militias to take over the country. Fortunately, he hires a martial arts expert, former Navy SEAL, and survivor from the explosion of the planet Krypton, whose wife used to drive in demolition derbies, as an aide. When the FBI gets the aide to check on some incriminating info on his boss, he is caught, and the militias make the mistake of going after Superman and his family. The movie goes downhill from there, ending in the hero committing first degree murder. The other members of the conspiracy survive, but apparently are too intimidated by this man to take further action. The bad guy's influence in the Justice Department and the federal judiciary is similarly intimidated. The ghost of Ed Wood may have been involved, but is not mentioned in the credits.
