REVIEW: Mission of Justice – Chosen by Ant.

Plot overview:

Disillusioned by police politics, cop Kurt Harris hands in his badge and heads off on his own. But when buddy and boxing champ Cedric is brutally murdered, the one man war machine sets out on a hurricane campaign to reap revenge. Tracing the case to the sinister Mission of Justice, the karate cop finds himself fighting for truth and survival against ruthless beauty Rachel Larkin, a league of vigilante lawmen and a warped web of blackmail and betrayal...

Rudi’s rambling:

We learned a harsh lesson from this film: Mathias Hues may be great in himself but he does appear in some of the most shockingly useless marshal arts piffle you’ve ever seen. If you are - as you should be – a big fan of Mathias then you should add this to your collection but don’t expect to be proud of yourself afterwards.
The story revolves around former cop Harris (Jeff Wincottager) who discovers that the Mission of Justice is behind the murder of his buddy Cedric. The Mission of Justice is run by the unfeasibly tall Ma Larkin (Brigitte Nielsen) and is the usual marshal arts school front nonsense but with the twist that they are amateur law enforcers.
Larkin is trying to take over the city or some nonsense and Harris infiltrates the Mission of Justice to thwart her evil Scandinavian plans. Mathias is the hired muscle as usual, you can guess the rest.
