Steele Justice (1987)
(7/10): While certainly not the greatest action film of the late eighties, Steele Justice does have its fair share of fun.
Steele Justice is about a soldier who fought in Vietnam named John Steele who was set up by the Vietnamese government, left for dead only to come back and do the same to the leader of the Vietnamese government, who then swore he'd take revenge.
Many years have passed and Steele works on and off various jobs and gets into the occasional trouble with the law but after being bailed out by his spiritual family, who is Vietnamese, he then finds himself lunged back into fighting for his country as the Vietnamese Mafia made an attempt to kill the entire family leaving only his niece alive and brother on life support and later he passes away.
Being nearly pushed completely over the edge John makes an attempt on the Vietnamese head official's son's life, who is also the son of the same man who set him up in Nam.
He becomes the target of both the law and the Vietnamese Mafia as he attempts to overthrow them once and for all and avenge his brother's death.
Here we have a very fun and cheesy action film that surprisingly has a great soundtrack and it also has some silly one liners.
Action fights aren't great but they aren't the worst either, the film is mostly elevated by its incredible amounts of eighties cheese
Not the best film but for people who like old cheesy action films, you should probably like this one.
