  The Adventure Begins and it's nothing but FUN!

Pure sillyness and entertainment. If you were ever a fan of The Destroyer series of fiction Murphy and Sapir this is a movie for you. It is thte first and only attempt to bring to movie life the adventures of Remo Williams and master Chiun.

Excellent casting with Joel Grey bringing the acidic and ever cynical Chiun to life. There could have been no better choice. Fred Ward is also excellent as Remo.

Buy this movie and read the books. Great fun, great entertainment and a little well disguised social commentary.

Have fun.

A friend recommended this movie and his description of it was intriguing so, I decided to buy it.

The movie was simply not good. It has a childish slant with some impossible or unrealistic happenings. I would not recommend it.

  Good old 1980's movie
Review created: 10/31/09

Rare and out of print so to watch I had to buy. It was better than I remembered it. This is the one movie that is based on the Destroyer series of books (of which there were over 100 I believe). This movie got an academy award nomination for best make-up (for the Korean trainer). I recommend this movie.

Review created: 05/25/09

This movie is predictable with a grown up 'Karate Kid' flavor to it but with higher stakes; and the clash of cultures and wit is funny. It was a good first attempt to bring 'The Destroyer' series to the screen. I wish they had made a few more along this line.

The old story of a street cop, who gets set up then finds himself getting trained by the oriental master. To dodge bullets etc. Great movie, with a funny background story.

I really like this movie. It has action and some comedy.I really like the
charater of remo. He goes from a nobody to a stealth hitman. But how he gets
there is very entertaining.Not alot of bad words or gory violence.

  Why wasn't there a sequel to Remo Williams?
Review created: 02/07/09
by:

This must be one of those movies that doesn't get much attention at the theater, then becomes popular at the video store, which is where we first found it. My kids loved it when they were about 7 and we all continued to enjoy it as they grew up. I had to buy this copy, as my kids are in their 20's now and ours was worn out. It is very quirky, full of action and humor. Joel Grey is a hoot as an ancient Oriental mystic in charge of turning Fred Ward into a martial arts whiz. For those who only know him as a singer/dancer, it may be a shock to see how very funny he can be. There isn't much for a mom to wince about in language or violence. No sexy stuff. We always wondered why they never made a sequel. We would have bought it in the hope that it would be as good as this one. Great for family movie night!

Review created: 10/15/08

I bought this movie because the book series is great, unfortunately the movie adaptation leaves much to be desired. The only part I really liked was when Remo told Chuin he was incredible, and Chuin replied "no I am better than that" which potrays his character very well.
