Synopsis
Two CIA agents—a kung fu master (Bruce Le) and a suave womanizer (Richard Harrison)—track the stolen formula for a super-sterility drug from Spain to Hong Kong, battling terrorists and a Vietnamese spy ring for its possession.
Reception
David Johnson of DVD Verdict gave the film a positive review, writing: "I'll just say this: there's a lot of meaningless fighting, gratuitous nudity, specifically in the opening where one of our heroes plays a few round of slow-motion topless tennis, and one of the looniest fights scenes I've ever seen: Bruce Le vs. a bull.This film's worth comes only from the surreal factor, but it's an excellent companion piece to For Your Height Only."[1]
