Jonathan O Invasion usa is the og of Civil War but with Chuck Norris and this action film is violent and entertaining action thriller if you wanna see Chuck Norris saving the world on Christmas holiday this one is for all Chuck Norris fans and even for memes and really incredible special make-up effects by KNB and Tom Savini who've work together in Day of the Dead did amazing work and fantastic stunts work but the script is not perfect it makes no sense to the characters and the story but Chuck Norris saves the day. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/13/24 Full Review mark g I'm torn over this one. I mean, it is truly a horrible film. Terrible acting, script, action, premise...awful. HOWEVER, it's so bad, it has a campy entertainment value to it. But that was not intended, so one star. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/26/24 Full Review Liam D The first movie that comes to mind when talking about both 80s action movies and Cannon (The Last American Virgin, Shy People) it’s an laughable bad thriller that has mediocre direction by Joseph Zito (The Prowler) and proves that Chuck Norris (Silent Rage) both cannot act or write an good screenplay Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/08/24 Full Review David W Very much a mid eighties, Reagan era one man army movie (co-written by star Chuck Norris) which wears it's zenophobic politics on both sleives but politics aside I enjoyed this America can do no wrong action flick. Director Zito who also did Missing in Action with Chuck and latterly Red Scorpion with big Dolph Lundgren knows how to handle the action as does the main man Norris. There's some gloriously great eighties style lines, the indestructible Norris in double denim, a totally over the top villain (who hatches the worst planned invasion in history) in Richard Lynch and lots of explosive set pieces which should keep afficionados royally entertained and horrify the woke. Patriotic to a fault, 80's American action cinema with all that entails socially and politically for sure but I still very much enjoyed this unapologetically jingoistic venting from Chuck. Denim with denim with mullet and beard in both look and over the top tone. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/18/23 Full Review Parker D Another underrated action movie from the 80s that needs to get more praise than given it's straitforward and has a comprehensible story even if it's not to complex and full of charachter arcs but the main charachter Matt hunter played by chuck norris is a likeable hero and is the police detective agent in this film I was able to tell what the film was about which was about terrorists invading America and how everyone needs to defend themselves the action is exiting and the acting is solid it reminds me of better reviewed movies like Independence Day and lord of the rings because of how it's about being attacked and needing to defend and fight enemies trying to take over your world it's just awesome those critics got this movie wrong it may not have been well reviewed like code of silence and lone wolf mcquade but it still has chuck norris photos all over it especially when you see chuck norris photos of him in movies this also has memorable moments like when a terrorist puts a bomb disguised as a Christmas package and how he gets caught and a shootout fight begins as chuck norris arrives crashing his truck 🛻 inside the mall and how he fights the terrorists with his cool looking double guns I haven't seen in other action movies which is the originality in invasion USA even thought it would be generally not considered too much original as there were other action films like ones with Charles Bronson and bullit with Steve McQueen which this film is basically a more action packed version of its action set piece after action set piece and they are all well staged it's the biggest strength of This film critics themselves should admit that this film is for entertainment and not for hard thinking people it's a fun watch and has cool scenes especially the one when a terrorist tries to bomb a school bus but norris prevents it and brings it back to them killing them in the end invasion USA was a fun action movie that may not have been Oscar award worthy but is still a decent action film from the 80s and I say give it a go it's worth a watch 7.5/10 Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/15/23 Full Review DanTheMan 2 Given that I'm meeting the man himself in about a week, I thought I better get more acquainted with Chuck Norris' filmography rather quickly, given the only other movie I've seen of his beforehand is Lone Wolf McQuade, and chose Invasion U.S.A. to kick it all off in what is the most Florida Man movie to end all Florida Man movies. Invasion U.S.A. doesn't actually have a plot outside of stuff exploding, guns going pew pew and Chuck Norris sporting the most exquisite mullet and beard combo known to man while not taking any crap from an exquisitely deranged Richard Lynch while attempting to single handily repel the single worst planned invasion in history. It's certainly a movie and perhaps Cannon Films' most well-known one at that, mixing unashamed patriotism, cold war paranoia and astute diplomacy. Despite all that, it's a genuine blast for the entire runtime with Director Joseph Zito delivering utter chaos in the best way imaginable, outrageously over the top and packed to the brim with hammy dialogue, beautiful overacting and utter cheese.
