Description: I cannot fully express in words how much I love this flick so I’m rubbing my junk while I write this one-handed. Robert motherfuckin Ginty plays tough as nails, wise-crackin cop Farley Wood, don’t let the name fool you he’s a real man’s man; we’re introduced to our hero as he kerb crawls for scum and ends up helping out a transsexual in distress. No rest for the wicked tho, before you know it Wood’s being packed off to a tropical island to bodyguard a dead ambassador’s wife and kid. He barely has time to set his cat’s automatic feeding machine but he still manages to squeeze in a quick Dirty Harry like takedown of some armed robbers at his local supermarket. Touching down on the island he takes an instant dislike to the posh bitch he’s going to be protecting and a borderline racist attitude towards the locals which is handy because it’s not long before Wood’s called on to cull the scumbag population one bullet at a time.
Ginty is one seriously relaxed actor in this one, he sleepwalks through the movie barely opening his eyes enough to make sure he won’t step on the bloody cat. Every single supporting actor and extra is hilarious in one way or another. Poor Barbara Bingham’s motivations are all over the place from one scene to the next; witness one of the most excruciatingly awkward seduction scenes in movie history. Charles Napier looks like he’s having a fucking blast though.
