Narco Dollar

Narco Dollar

A Filipino produced action film directed by Joe Mari Avellana starring Ghazi Abudanud, Carlos Adams, and Peter Afridi. Leon Damian stars in this Commando knock-off directed by elder statesman of Pinoy entertainment, Joe Mari Avellana. Damian is Mark Stevens, a tough uncompromising cop who (gasp!) doesn't play by the rules. When his little friend Timmy is beaten by the local crack dealer Crazy Jack Kinney (the ubiquitous Nick Nicholson), Stevens responds by kicking the shit out of of Crazy Jack and stealing his notebook, which leads him to an oily sinister drug dealer and jai-alai fan Vinnie Esteban (played by oily sinister Robert Marius), who in turn leads him to ruthless drug lord Fabio Escabar, at which point several cartloads of shit hit the fan. After several bloody encounters with Stevens, Escobar has his son Danny kidnapped, so Stevens backs down and acquiesces to their demands. Ha! Not really though. He kills a bunch of people and shouts a lot. Fans of late-80s action films, and of Filipino action films in particular, will get a lot of fun out of this one. Its production values are several degrees higher than the average Silver Star production, and Leo Damian manages to take the whole thing seriously enough to give a decent performance, but the real star is the action, which takes the form of a series of increasingly violent and elaborate shootouts, culminating in a climactic showdown at the villains' lair in which our hero, armed with one of those huge automatic rifles with a grenade launcher attached, manages to kill about six hundred bad guys and blow up a helicopter. Oh, and he rescues his son too, but you won't care about that.
