The Hammer in Manilla
20 August 2007
The effortlessly cool Fred Williamson returns as hard hitting cop Robert Malone in this rather enjoyable sequel to the original film.

Boasting a cool, driving soundtrack, some rather amusing dialogue, a fair bit of shooting and plenty of cigar chomping this proves to be undemanding fun from beginning to end.

On the negative side however, as with it's predecessor there sadly just isn't enough action present and what is here isn't exactly original stuff. Nonetheless, it's good to see Williamson performing his own stunts and let's be entirely honest here; Anything with The Hammer in it is always worth a watch at least once.

Overall, whilst far from Wiliamson's best effort, for fans of the great man, it's certainly worth checking out.
