a5c7b9f00b Braddock, a man who was a POW in Vietnam, who just recently came back, is asked by an American delegation to go to Vietnam to see if there are any POW's there. When he arrives the General in charge makes some disparaging remarks to Braddock and they accuse him of crimes against them. Braddock later goes to the General and demands to know where the POW's are and after telling Braddock he tries to kill him but Braddock kills him. Later he is asked to leave, he then goes to Thailand to see a friend and to try and get those men out. But he is being pursued by a man who tortured him when he was a prisoner. Colonel Braddock, who escaped from a POW camp after 10 years, returns to Vietnam. He attempts to track down the location of a POW camp and rescue the prisoners to prove that several MIAs are still alive and being held captive. He is prompted to attempt his mission because of Government denials about the possibilities of existing POWs. When Chuck Norris comes up out of the water with the m-60 machine gun in tow and fires it in slow motion it almost single handedly heals all of America's wounds from the real war. M. Emmet Walsh delivers an unforgettable side-kick performance, and the film offers a riveting glimpse into Bangkok's seedy underbelly. Still good after watching it for the first time 32 years ago. Maybe it's a little cheesy but that adds to the fun. Don't listen to all the snowflakes.
