      Audience Member Man travels to Beirut to track down his missing twin brother. Did he die in an ambush? Is it a cover-up? Will he make it back to Dayton to coach high school basketball? All answers are delivered in this Menahem Golan production after his split from longtime partner Globus. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member I was hoping for more "Red Scorpion" or "Rambo III" or some Van Damage with this story about Michael Paré traveling to Beirut to rescue his kidnapped twin brother. Unfortunately, this film tried to take itself seriously and just came off as annoying when it really should have just acknowledged that it was a low budget B-picture and embraced the enjoyable cheesy film it could have been. When your film stars Michael Paré and Lorenzo Lamas, I'm expecting "Snakeeater," not a low budget attempt at "Raid on Entebbe." On a side note, I recognized the love interest in the film, but couldn't quite place her. It was Jennifer Runyon who is probably best known for "Ghostbusters" as the cute college co-ed who Dr. Peter Venkman flirts with during his psychic experiments and also appearing as a regular on "Charles in Charge." Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Menahem Golan produced effort features a double lead in superstars Michael Pare and Lorenzo Lamas. Basketball coach from Ohio travels to war-torn Beirut to seek his twin brother pronounced dead by the Embassy but actually held by terrorists. By this time, the careers of Pare, Lamas and Golan were on the decline. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
