Crappy Chuck-Fu movie has Chuck Norris playing the head of security for a Jewish casino owner who's like a father to him. Ruthless types want to buy the man's casino but he doesn't want to sell. So they rub him out. What's a mustachioed hero to do but take matters into his own hands? I'm not a huge fan of Norris' early face-kicking movies. I much prefer his shoot 'em-ups. But there is some good cheesy value to some of them. This one has some "so bad it's good" qualities but not enough ultimately. It's kind of boring and none of the action is all that impressive. Not to mention the whole thing looks to be shot on a dollar store budget.

I must be honest here. Forced Vengeance is one of the most idiotic and amateurish pieces of crap I've seen, back in the day where Chuckie sported a moustache and had red hair. He plays an orphaned brother, extracting revenge on the people responsible for killing his foster brother and Dad, who were running this great casino business, but these evil developers had put the squeeze on em'. While small Daddy, defied the baddies after rejecting their proposal, he and son (who was for it) paid the ultimate price. Some people are just plain stubborn. I guess it's a matter of principal. If you want loads of action, you'll get it here. If you want logic, go somewhere else. Of course, as always, Chuck's close friend, a ex vet buddy is killed. When his beautiful girlfriend is raped and killed, now the real vengeance begins, that Chuckies sends forth, and we love it. The film has a very amateurish and slapdash script, as if the dialogue came as the movie went along, some moments of it, become unintentionally funny. Main reason- absurd dialogue. Here's a stupid line for ya, as I feel I must tell you. This is just after father Pascal, has told baddie, Ramondi to go jump. This is Ramondi's reactive dialogue. "I know, but expand or die, that's (something else... "). Oh, and the acting, don't even get me started on the acting. This is like Chuck isn't even acting. This is like a just do it as you go, not even half baked flick. I did love Chucks's line where he put a homosexual mate of one the baddies into some heating contraption. "Sleep tight, sweet cheeks. You could of been a toasted marshmellow." It's great, seeing Chuckie, galavanting all over San Francisco, on the kill, readily disposing of scum, with a non repentence, much like a robot, and that's what he is. He hardly shows any range of emotions, if any, and this could well be one of the worst performances of his life, in one of the worst films he's ever done. Truly, FV, is one the most amateurish, unprofessional flicks, I've ever seen, all the way, which is a shame, given the beautiful surrounds this flick is shot. It's sloppy wrapped up ending, is just another laugh of unbelief. True to life words, have Chuckie saying to that gay badman. "Bravest man I knew was a homosexual"

Being a Chuck fan for the past month I caught this on cable and wasn't disappointed. Chuck plays Josh Randall, a Hong Kong casino bouncer. I like to look at this as a unofficial prequel to Road House with Patrick Swayze. Mainly because total strangers know him because he's the greatest bouncer ever. Only in this movie he's a loyal casino bouncer, not some sellout to the highest bidder like Dalton in Road House. Plus Chuck isn't afraid to use a gun.Here are some memorable things to watch out for in Forced Vengeance: 1. Chuck lives on a boat way out in the harbor. This is because Chuck refuses to sleep on anything but American soil.2. There is a flashback scene where Chuck has no mustache. He of course gets beaten to a pulp in this scene to demonstrate the power of facial hair.3. Chuck wears many cowboy hats in this movie. People like to step on them to make him angry.4. About 90% of the tough guys who Chuck beats the crap out of have mustaches. Almost all of these mustaches are noticeably unkempt and some are obvious fakes. This just goes to show if you don't follow proper mustache growing and grooming steps Chuck Norris will destroy you.5. Chuck fights a sea boat captain, and eventually is forced to shoot him because he's going to miss his ferry boat ride.6. Chuck catches a homosexual male prostitute in a bed sheet a douses him in lighter fluid and threatens to burn him if his lover doesn't talk and tell Chuck what he needs to know. Chuck then says the smartest man he ever met was a homosexual.7. Chuck is the only person who thinks it's mean to fire somebody, then force them to leave the premises without any pants.8. We, the viewers, are treated to the inner monologue of Chucks character. Either that or Chuck was using his telepathic powers to better educate me on what was going on at times during the film. Thanks Chuck!No need to thank me. So enjoy people!

Attention: Chuck Norris is at it with his really, really unspectacular fighting moves and horrible acting. Are you looking for excitement, stay clear. In fact, this movie had potential. It's set in Hong Kong, and that's often a plus when it comes to fighting movies. Hong Kong is also mentioned by Norris as "The Place" in this movie. The great locations help a bit, but since Chuck Norris isn't' exactly "The Action Star", then this is definitely not "The Movie" (ha-ha). To be more specific, I guess people already know that the plot alone can't save a movie like this. It's the action scenes that make the difference or not. And as mentioned, Norris fails on every level in this movie when it comes to that. He's better suited to army/machine-gun movies (like "Delta Force") than karate-flicks like this one.
