PlatinumRead Just so...so bad

Majorthebys Charming and brutal

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Harry Lags Chuck Norris in the role of ex-CIA bad-ass Matt Hunter, clearly a man not to be messed with. He is a one-man army who comes to the rescue of the United States when a spy attempts an invasion. Is INVASION U.S.A. a good movie? Well, it's okay, Chuck Norris doesn't do much in the way of martial arts and is off screen way too often, and the supporting cast is pretty weak (the two Cannon character actors I was all psyched to see, Billy Drago and James Pax, get about a combined 2 minutes of screen time). But– before you go throwing yourselves off of balconies– this is still a Norris/Cannon picture, and as such there are a handful of things that should tickle your fancy in this movie. In short, Invasion U.S.A. is a film about kicking several different types of ass,as the need arises.But one things for sure is that Chuck is clearly doing a lot of the stuff in the film himself.. Not just the stunts, either. He actually wrestles a crocodile. Yes it's hogtied, but I doubt Stallone or Van Damme would ever mess with it. He's also clearly at ease handling an air boat, along with multiple other weapons and vehicles.The only problem i have with this movie is that there is hardly any martial arts in it. But apart from that this movie has a crazy amount of action, including the destruction of an entire suburban street,so if you are in the mood for a mindless, action packed movie, Invasion USA starring Chuck Norris is the movie you want to see. It is actually a typical 80's Action Movie with lots of stuff blowing up with little conversation....what more do you want?

Fluke_Skywalker There's a 20-minute stretch in 'Invasion U.S.A.' where Chuck Norris' Matt Hunter character keeps showing up out of the blue to thwart various Commie terror attacks that his character would have had no clue were about to take place. We all know the real Chuck Norris is omniscient, but who knew that his characters were as well? 'Invasion U.S.A.' is high on dead bodies, and low on logic and common sense, but it's a fairly well made film from the technical side, and seeing Norris operate at the peak of his hairy-chested machismo is always a treat.Best Chuckism; "If you come back in here, I'm gonna hit you with so many rights you're gonna be beggin' for a left.".

Rocketeer_Raccoon The moment someone mentions Chuck Norris, the first thing that usually pops into their head is a legendary bearded man who normally plays in action movies as an unstoppable one-man army and he can also round-house kick people in the face, oh and in this movie he has a pet armadillo which is really cute and a wise pet choice to have since they are hard like Chuck.Before I watched the movie I wasn't expecting much considering how averagely rated the film is but to my surprise I actually really enjoyed this movie. Although I did notice a couple of flaws within the movie, McGuire (Melissa Prophet) came out as a rather cocky character who just wants the scoop of the news and her acting was mediocre, and there's a scene where kids on a school bus sing "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" which is by far the worst children's song ever. One other thing although I thought was really funny rather than a bad thing is that the main villain, Mikhail Rostov (Richard Lynch) kills some people by putting his gun into their pants and trousers and blasting their privates to kingdom come and killing them that way, I just thought it was really hilarious. Also there's one part where Rostov has a rocket launcher that doesn't need reloading, but who cares, it's an 80's action movie.But these are just minor flaws, overall this movie is a lot of fun to watch. What makes this movie really stand out is the action and for a movie from the 1980's, it's all really good and it's all done with practical effects which is something you don't get a lot of these days such as real explosions, lots of gun fighting and a well performed car chase scene. Chuck Norris truly is a man of action and he delivers this film really well.Definitely recommend this movie, it's an awesome forgotten gem starring a great legendary action hero star.

utgard14 Commies invade Florida led by ol' coke nose himself, Richard Lynch. Little do the Reds know, bearded former CIA agent Chuck Norris is here to defend the USA! Norris punches, kicks, shoots, and explodes his way through the enemy forces. He singlehandedly wards off an invasion of the United States. If that doesn't redefine badass, I don't know what does. Many classic scenes and lines. Loaded with testosterone. Super violent in the best Cannon tradition. Norris is excellent in what might be my favorite movie of his. Richard Lynch is a pretty scary individual that I wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley. Billy Drago has a memorable scene. I don't think it's a huge spoiler to say he dies but HOW he dies you will have to watch to find out. You won't see it coming, trust me. Essential viewing for fans of Norris, Cannon, and action movie buffs.
