Disappointment for a huge fan!
Boring
Better Late Then Never
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Oh how I miss the message boards. This film was made for one reason only...to watch good ol Chuck walk around and kick some people in the chest. That being said, sometimes that is all it takes to make a watchable movie. There are some shallow supporting cast and a love interest that I think I blinked too long while watching and they became a couple. There's also a nice nod to the camaraderie of mid-70s truckers on their CBs. So to wrap up, some fun martial arts from Mr. Norris. I've seen a heck of a lot worse.Chuck Norris can slam a revolving door.
After reading many of your reviews, I am offended to say the least!! Did not one of you realize that this was shot as a documentary? It was not some hickabob CB/Karate movie as some of you believe. This mans brother was really missing and a film crew was sent with him to record the search! Geeesh, I can't believe you think this was filmed for entertainment!! I'm sure that Texas City is a real fine "City" in California and not ALL of the citizens are named Cletus, Beudreaux, and Jethro.....so BACK OFF! I'd like just one of you to name ONE part of this movie that wasn't factual. C'mon now......The cops were cousins of Enos and Roscoe from Dukes of Hazard (Another Factual show by the way) and I'm pretty sure I've seen a few others on Amazing Police Chases and Stupid Pet Tricks part 8. What? Could you not believe that the drunk Stumblebum Judge could have a hot wife? They both must be half deaf too because they could not hear the SCREAMING SEMI coming into their house ......" Joshua, did you hear something?" KKAAAABOOOOMMMM!! And Tough Cops?? Wow! Ron Cedilla?? Are you kidding....My grandmother had more fight skills that him.... Notice how cleverly Chuck Norris ducked around the handful of dirt that Supermexcop tried to throw in his face during the final fight. You KNEW he was in trouble when his Fistfulofdirt trick did not FAKE OUT Chuck Norris for a 2nd time. I'm not saying I could sense impending doom for Supermexcop Cedilla, but his on screen fight was about to come to a screeching halt, just like his acting career! "Drink Trucker?" Anyhow,,,the events in this film were REAL, ACTUAL, and FACTUAL..... I'm pretty sure. Now...Off to find me some Wild Turkey!!
Chuck Norris became a American Icon when he reached the top of the Martial Arts world. Winning nearly every competition from East to the West coast, his fame proceeded him into films. There he made several low budget movies which led to his most memorable confrontation with the legendary Bruce Lee. In this film called " Breaker, Breaker " Norris plays John Dawes who's younger brother Billy (Michael Augenstein) a trucker has been arrested, jailed, kidnapped and presumed killed, at the whim of corrupt Judge Joshua Trimmings (George Murdock). The small town sheriff works with the judge to waylay Dawes as he enters the town. Throughout the film one can see Norris in action as he takes on the Sheriff and his henchmen and literally dusts' them. Though there is much to be said for the Martial artist, except for his talent, Norris's acting as well as the rest of the cast is stiff, boring and cardboard. The plot is simple as is the entire premise. Still if you're a Norris fan, this is one for you. If not you can do with this film as the title suggest. **
Breaker! Breaker! is the kind of mindless action film that fans of the genre have grown to love. The plot was thin, the acting even thinner, but what the movie excelled in was fast paced stunts and neck-cracking roundhouse kicks - the kind of kicks that only Chuck Norris can deliver. Breaker! Breaker! doesn't take itself seriously and it's not supposed to. It's meant to be a movie you went and watched at the drive-in with a girl on one arm and a cold beer in the other. If you watch this movie intent on solid plot and character development, then you're going to be in for a rude awakening. It's meant to entertain and amuse you for 90 minutes and thats all, and it accomplishes that fairly well.
