Fatal Justice Trailers

Somewhere near the Texas-Louisiana border, the CIA maintains a force of domestic assassins. So secret is their work that their retirement program is a bullet in the head. Up-and-coming hitwoman, Diana, gets the order to dispatch Mars, a legendary CIA killer who's reached "retirement" age. She stalks him while he's in the bush leading a training exercise for recruits. Her pushy boyfriend Rick, also a CIA operative, insists on coming with her. Behind the scenes, a power play within the agency pits Ted Harmon against section boss George Marshall.

The lack of professionalism and logic (to mention just one example: how and when the hell did the heroine remove the bullets from the gun at the end?) in "Fatal Justice" is good for some unintentional amusement, but most of the time the film simply alternates between boring drawn-out non-action scenes, poorly done action scenes, and stolen action scenes. By "stolen", I mean that it's pretty clear that most of them (especially those involving vehicles) were taken from other films and patched onto this one! You can even see the difference in the (more grainy) film stock. Suzanne Ager is OK, Joe Estevez overacts (it would be SO easy to mistake him for his brother, Martin Sheen, if it weren't for their difference in acting skills!), and most of the rest of the cast is obviously made up by amateurs. It's been said before, but it's true: the cover is better than the movie. *1/2 out of 4.

One can never accuse "Fatal Justice" of being high art. Believe me, I was there. But it was a riot to work on nonetheless. Brother Kneumsi was right. Shreveport was indeed a great party town to be making a no-budget movie in. We particularly enjoyed our stay at the Blind Tiger and pushed the screenwriter to add some more bar scenes. Anything to avoid working outdoors in the summer heat. Too bad the DVD doesn't include the behind the scenes footage I still have. You'll miss the entire crew falling down drunk running through the halls of the local Motel 8 at 2 am, knocking on doors and fleeing, giggling like we're in junior high. Yeah, keep your mega-million dollar budgets. The "B" movie life is the way to fly.

This B movie tops my list of greatest films in the 1990's.Who would of thought that $25,000.00 and a couple of beers could produce such results.Many cheers for the beloved trainees from Shreveport. Hey, "I want to kill... people" too.Go grab some pizza and a bottle of "Jack" and have a great time with your friends, if you have any.As for myself, this is a must see at least once a year tradition. Watch out Blind Tiger, here I come!

Although this movie was never released in theaters in the U.S., it is available on video. It is by no means a great movie, but Joe Estevez is good, as usual, and the refreshing performances of Air Force personnel SSgt. Jack Bednarcik, MSgt. George Garcia, SSgt. Ray Huckeba, and SSgt. Marvin Mullins as mercenaries make the whole thing worth watching. They not only performed in the movie, but, as I understand it, gave military advice to the star and his director, Gerald Cane, while filming was underway in Shreveport, LA.
