Is Sean avenging his dead partner or the dead daughter of his best friend? That doesn't really seem to matter much because everywhere these two go they end up getting into a fight where they're vastly outnumbered, yet somehow come out on top. For starters - there is just too much motivation motivating this movie.

Confusing matters further is Linda's boss (Christopher Lee) who seems all too willing to help - only the information he has to offer puts Sean and James into greater danger.Īs you can probably guess plot isn't the big working point of this movie. Drawn into the investigation, Sean and James must put the scant information Linda had together and find the men at the top of the drug ring - even if that means going up against Sean's former Captain (Richard Roundtree). Since Sean was trained by her father James Chan (Mako), Linda knows she can trust him although she dies trying to get the information in his hands. Meanwhile big time local city beat news reporter Linda Chan (Rosalind Chao) seems to have stumbled onto some key pieces of evidence that Sean needs. After a scandal breaks out, Sean is forced to quit being a cop if he wants to have any chance of taking down the drug ring and avenging his friend. Seeing his best friend killed so horribly - Sean goes absolutely berserk killing the remaining low level street thugs with his fists of justice. With his parter shot, hit by a car and incinerated. Everything is going according to plan until the bust goes wrong - the bad guys were waiting for him. Sean Kane (Chuck Norris) is an undercover narcotics cop about to fling his two fists of justice at one of the biggest drug rings in San Fransisco.

#AN EYE FOR AN EYE FILM MOVIE#
Then you have a movie like 'An Eye For An Eye' and the plot seems to only serve the need to have Chuck do some wicked cool roundhouse kicks against numerous opponents. Movies like 'Missing in Action' or 'Invasion U.S.A.' were at least entertaining in their badness.

With such titles as 'Silent Rage,' 'The Octagon' and even later entries like the goofy 'Hellbound' - Norris has proven himself to be a commanding screen presence, even if the movies themselves weren't that great.
