I've always been a big fan of Chuck Norris, but when I saw this film I was simply blown away by the perfect combination of well choreographed martial-arts action, stunt-work, and terrific training sequences. It still fascinates me now. Although the story is simple, Chuck Norris stars as martial arts extraordinaire Jake Fallon, who, after the death of his brother and sister-in-law, adopts (and trains) his orphaned nephew. Logan (Eddie Cibrian, TV's Third Watch). After fifteen years of careful instruction, Logan is determined to avenge his parents Death... And, he'll need Uncle Jake's help to do it.Although Chuck is about 58 in this film, he shows off some moves which many men in their prime could never pull off, Nice bit at the end with Norris dispatching the chief mobster using a method lifted directly from his own GOOD GUYS WEAR BLACK movie from the 1970's, but this is better.Logan's War: Bound by Honor is a solid piece of TV action movie entertainment. It has a great cast, a good story, and some exciting action bits. And although Chuck is not in the movie through out, it's still worth checking out.One of my personal favorites.. Great stuff.

As the 1990s progresses, Chuck Norris found himself falling out of favour with cinema audiences – so he transferred his hard-man antics to the small screen, where he struck gold with his successful series, WALKER, Texas RANGER. At the same time he continued to appear in a series of television movies, including this one, which re-teams him with television director Michael Preece for a story of revenge, the plot of which appears to have come straight out of the 1970s.First, the bad news for Norris fans: he's not the main star here! Instead, that honour goes to the fresh-faced Eddie Cibrian, playing a guy who witnesses the murder of his entire family (shades of LEON here) and, fifteen years later, decides to get revenge. He does so by infiltrating the mob and getting close to the guys responsible, before revealing his true identity, at which point all hell predictably breaks loose. So, there's nothing new here for action lovers. The film is marred by Preece's sappy, cheesy direction and the inclusion of a preposterous sub-plot which sees Cibrian possessing psychic abilities, able to predict when disaster is about to occur.Saying that, for a TV movie, this is pretty impressive. It's got a ton of action to recommend it, some comedy – it works on occasion, like the two dumb gangsters, other times it doesn't – and quite a lot of drama. It's all very cheesy but hey, this is the US TV style. The acting is adequate – Cibrian's hero is a likable enough chap, the bad guys are suitably bad and Chuck Norris is as fun on screen as ever – but really, this is all about the action. And it isn't bad at all. The highlight is the huge shoot-out at the climax of the movie, which incorporates the cheesy kick-through-the-windscreen stunt that Norris pulled off in GOOD GUYS WEAR BLACK – except this time, a stuntman stands in for our hero. Still, it's good stuff, and Norris is still on top form in the various training sequences we see him take part in (and you've gotta love the photo they use from DELTA FORCE II). It's just a shame he wasn't the main actor. LOGAN'S WAR is no classic and it's quickly forgettable viewing. But it's kind of fun, and I have to say I enjoyed it.

This classic Chuck Norris movie has very good guys and very badguys. The young hero waits l5 years to revenge his family's murderand he (IEddie Ciprian) does it with style. I hoped that it was thebeginning of a series on TV. I watch old "Walker, US Marshall"re-runs and enjoy them. The ending really leads one to think of avery probable series staring Logan (Eddie) and naturally, CHuckNorris, the rich retired uncle who knows all the great kick boxerand karate moves, is an excellent back up star and now I have aquestion. Does anyone know if a series was contemplated or if aseries "happened" on TV without my knowing it. 4 years havepassed since this movie. I rated it an 8 for a fascinating plot, greatcharacters including a wonderful stray dog and a little kid and hisvictim Mother. Great stuff. Please inform me if you know more.Thanks. Bettie Magee

I thought Logan's War was very enjoyable and better than the average made-for-tv fare. I was very impressed with Eddie Cibrian who I thought played the part of vigilante/hero very well. It seemed to me that the movie was set up to spin off into a tv series and I watch with interest to see if this eventuates.
