      Walter Goodman New York Times ''I never thought we'd be coming back,'' says the colonel's pal, who plainly didn't take a look at the receipts from parts one and two. Jan 10, 2018 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy It's so wretched that it makes the Rambo sequels look as accomplished as The Bridge on the River Kwai by comparison. Rated: 1/4 Jan 14, 2023 Full Review Juan Carlos Coto South Florida Sun-Sentinel What makes Braddock work is that Aaron Norris knows Chuck is best when he doesn't speak; large chunks of the film are pure action.

      Elvis D La trilogía de Missing In Action finaliza con Chuck Norris en una última misión tiempo después de los eventos de la primera película. Ahora Chuck debe regresar al campo de batalla para rescatar a su hijo perdido y enfrentar una vez más a los soldados de Vietnam. Como siempre, Chuck Norris no decepciona en su rol como Braddock. Aquí muestra una evolución como personaje al descubrir que es padre y que está dispuesto a salvar a su hijo. Es una película de acción ochentera con buenas escenas de acción y mucho de lo que se puede esperar en este tipo de películas. Con un antagonista bastante creíble y toda una serie de secuencias de disparos y explosiones muy prometedoras. Esta película le da una muy buena conclusión a la trilogía y la historia de Braddock. Mi calificación para esta película es un 9/10. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/02/23 Full Review Josh G Lacking the cheesy charm of the first, any acting ability from Chuck Norris, and subpar poorly shot action that has random 80's songs this film is best left in the dcade it came from. Chuck norris may be a meme but his movies are impossible to sit through, you lost to Bruce Lee and lost out on the movie career you make Van damme looks like he should win an Oscar. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Directed by Chuck's brother Aaron and this time, Norris is Colonel James Braddock all over again, but we've discovered that his wife Lin Tan Cang (Miki Kim) isn't dead, a fact that Reverend Polanski (Yehuda Efroni, Cannon utility fielder) imparts his way. And there's another surprise. He has a 12-year-old son, Van Tan Cang (Roland Harrah III). Don't get used to having a wife Braddock. Before you can say "Cannon pictures," Vietnamese General Quoc (Aki Aleong) kills Lin and has his soldiers take Braddock and Van to be tortured. The real co-star of this movie is Chuck's Heckler & Koch G3 with grenade launcher and shooting bayonet. While Chuck used to base his movies on Reader's Digest, this time he was looking to 20/20 for material. This was supposed to be directed by Joe Zito, then Jack Smight, but after all the creative differences, it all worked out with Aaron. Chuck told reporters that "It's probably the best movie I've ever done." Sadly, a Philipines Air Force helicopter used in this film crashed into Manila Bay, an accident that killed four soldiers and wounding five other people on the same day that the verdict from the The Twilight Zone: The Movie case was delivered in Los Angeles Superior Court. This may not live up to the first two films, but it's still pretty entertaining. Sadly, Cannon was in so much financial trouble that they couldn't even afford to publicize it, which nearly caused Norris to sue the company. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member My favorite Missing in Action movie despite a few story choices that felt over the top and a couple of other issues. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/26/19 Full Review Audience Member Colonel Braddock is home after the war in Vietnam.. He is thrown in on a new mission.. He hears his wife did not die during the escape.. So his new mission is to go back and look for her. Finally to let the world know that American POWs are still held in country secretly. The music in the film by Ron Bloom is epic. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Braddock : Missing in Action 3 1988. Again this uses the tash to depict a younger Norris however the scene in which it is used has a story element which contradicts the previous two films. The scene is also the key scene of the plot meaning the whole story contradicts the previous installments. Nevertheless it has great action and an incredible finale making for a decent classic 80s action movie. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
