Ministry of Vengeance

A decent cast surrounds our bland hero as he goes from minister (though he's referred to as a reverend and a priest at different times) to vigilante. A good chunk of the movie is him training with an old war buddy played by the Back to the Future principal before going to Lebanon to kill the man that killed his family. Once he gets there he is almost immediately caught and all the training was for naught. If you cut out the fat this could barely fill an Adult Swim 15 min time slot. RIP Yaphet

Bad '80s action that doesn't have enough camp value to be worth watching. It has some interesting talent, including a fun Ned Beatty and James Toklan and George Kennedy and Yaphet Kotto (the latter two seem to be there for a paycheck or just don't have a lot to do.) It's dragged down by John Schneider, who has had a solid career but has about as much charisma as a can of soup here. There's a Vietnam tunnel scene that made me wonder why a better movie hasn't been made on that topic.
