This entertaining action-adventure comedy suffers from being a tad overlong. A New York street cop's death is staged and he is promptly given a new face and identity. As Remo Williams (Fred Ward, with an attitude), he is trained to be a super solder for the government. The old Korean master who trains him is a hoot. (I later learned he was played by a white guy.

) Despite the title, the film was a box-office disaster and all plans for any further adventures were shelved.
Fun if you're in the mood for a nostalgia trip back to the early '80s.
