Review Time

Warning: there are flashing effects/colourful effects/shooting/objectifying women/references to drugs/electrocution/terrorism

Here we go again for the final time in the film sense: we rejoin Ex-United States of America Navy Seals "R.J." Randolph J. "Hurricane" Spencer [Terry "Hulk" Hogan] and Martin "Bru" Brubaker/Manuel Santiago [Chris Lemmon] after capturing Manuel Santiago for the NSA/DEA Agent Harris [Joe Candelora,] but Santiago's right-hand man Mason Lee [Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa] seeks to release his boss and seek revenge against those that have imprisoned him, so he holds hostage this prestigious art school known as St Martins, which he knows Spencer's daughter Jessica Whitaker-Spencer [Ashley Gorrell] is starting her two afternoons a week schooling and likewise Kelly "Legs" LaRew [Carol Alt] was once a student here, but is starting her teaching job on the same day. This film also has wrestling on screen characters or wrestlers or interviewers in it such as; Jimmy Hart/a.k.a. "Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart as Jammin' Jimmy, Brutus [Brutus “The Barber" Beefcake a.k.a Ed Leslie] and Terry Taylor as Photoshoot Admirer.

The pacing for this 90 minute film is solidly good as it just moves throughout without no problems.

We still have the consistent comedy chemistry between Spencer and Brubaker, but if you are looking for a comedy moments there is Brubaker that has cooked this meal for Spencer, Jessica and LaRew, but it has been badly cooked, so generally speaking they decline and suggest ordering in a pizza with no pepperoni and a little later Spencer and Brubaker are on this mission, but he promised Jessica he would phone just to wish good luck on her first day at this new school, which he does but at the same time he and Brubaker are in this hostile situation. Eventually Jessica enquiries to I am paraphrasing here is this a good time to call? Which her father says yes as he and Brubaker makes it sound like a normal day so their daughter and/or niece doesn't have to worry about them and yes Brubaker wishes her good luck as well.

Art: there is this excellent clay sculpture of Spencer which I have just remembered is dark comedy and action what happens to it and then there is another underwater sequence involving Spencer, Brubaker and Alison Wilson [Heidi Mark] as they are taking any underwater secret way into St Martins'; this looks good.

Action: because I have in one way or another brought up the action; I will just make reference to this combat sequence Mason vs. Brubaker/Santiago in Thunder [voiced by Russ Wheeler;] this is good as well.

Character developments/performances: the character developments are reliably good versions of what they are meant to be, combine that with mostly minus one good performances with likewise good on-screen chemistry. The minus one is Mason Lee [Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa;] he puts in an excellent performance, whomever he shares a scene with, he brings them up to his level and yes it may just be [I mean this with no disrespect just a right-hand man,] but his level of conviction and passion should end does makes him someone that should be feared and respected, he and this is no separation comes across 10 times more dangerous than his boss.

This film receives: 6/10, this film is good; this project holds much better together than the previous two films, this song performed by Jimmy Jammin’ at the beginning of this film, mixed in with this modelling and older men essentially lusting over them, is cringeworthy and full disclosure when I was younger I used to probably have done this at some point, but to have these fully grown men acting like this is not from me and I am not making any excuses for this but this would be the 1990’s the film/TV programming for you. but let’s switch back to positivity the addition of Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa/at the time Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa is the reason why as I have already referenced this film gets given a positive mark, he has Mason Lee makes a massive impact on this film.
