 FLASH FIZZLES August 12, 2004
Sam Jones who burst on to the scene way back in 1980s FLASH GORDON co-stars in this ridiculously trite and boring movie. He plays the head of an agency called...TA DUM...THE PROGRAM!! The participants in the Program are ASSASSINS who kill for the government, or so Mr. Jones says. Whether they really do or not is never fully revealed. Suffice to say, assassin and non-actor Ian Jacklin becomes his newest recruit. There's one scene where Jacklin is told he has to take acting classes to help in undercover roles. He tells instructor, the vacuous Judy Landers, "I'm no actor!". Amen, truer words could never be spoken. Mel Novak in his toupee and let's make me look younger makeup plays Jacklin's mentor, who also has asthma. Joe Estevez brings further shame to the Sheen clan as a baseball spouting psycho, in one of the worst performances I've seen in a year! Julie Merrill tags along as the blind wife of a mob leader whom Jacklin snuffs. Of course, he falls in love with her and vows to take down the agency, which he does in a really dead climax. In a truly inspired scene, prisoner Jacklin urinates on his priest's bible and tells him to go to hell. The priest, who is really Novak undercover, kicks him in the privates and convinces him to join the Program.
Dull, daffy and definitely not worth renting or buying.

I was very disappointed with Expert Weapon.Sam Jones was great in Flash Gordon but in this movie well i think he should have left it alone.The acting and fighting scenes were so stupidly made,it was like as if a actor was standing there waiting to be hit.This is the type of film that reminded me of the early '80's low and cheap. Please do not waste your money on a low budget film like this.Rent it or look for a diffrent type of action film.
 This video is only $19.95 February 6, 1999
