Allan C Men-on-a-Mission film, but with blind men being recruited and trained to pull off a daring bank heist. I was quite tickled that when introducing each of the men, we get a flashback to how they became blind. It's a strange hybrid of Filipino exploitation and blaxploitation that stars D'Urville Martin as one of the blind guys, who are joined by a couple of blind Asian martial artists and another dude. The training scenes are fun, and the heist itself is surprisingly good. It's what happens after the heist, where the film loses its way, but it's still pretty fun. Fred Williamson gets top billing, but he only has a cameo, reprising his Jesse Crowder role from DEATH JOURNEY and NO WAY BACK. Fred also gets to do the climactic fight in the film, set on the roof of the International House of Pancakes. I was interested in checking this film out because there was a Video Archives Podcast episode where Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avery raved about how great this movie was. I'll give them that it's unique and pretty fun, but it's not a grindhouse classic. It's more of a curiosity. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/18/24 Full Review Audience Member Five blind men orchestrate a daring heist of $15 million of US Treasury funds in Manila targeted for the fight against the spread of communism in SE Asia. A brilliant premise and first half of planning and execution unfortunately cannot keep pace in the second half. Fred Williamson, for his part, does not have to make even so much as a wardrobe change for his appearance in the final scenes. Truly a global effort with scenes filmed across the world.
