Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Then he turns into an avenger and taking the law into his own hands as judge , jury and executioner .With the help from a fellow Vietnam vet, Deputy Deveraux (Yaphet Kotto), Buck exacts revenge against the corrupt town sheriff (Seymour Cassel) and the violent riders . Passable crime thriller in ¨Death Wish¨ style , this one created the Vigilante genre with Bronson as the main star , here Gary Busey imitates him pretty well . It contains suspense, noisy action-packed, intrigue, thrills and lots of violence . Busey with his usual stoic acting displays efficiently his weapons and an armoured pick-up and killing mercilessly nasties . As Busey turns the one-man vigilante when his family is attacked by furious band formed by some ominous dressed-in-black punks , as his wife is murdered and daughter really upsetting ; then , he stalks the enemies and takes the law into his own hands, searching vengeance on crooks, hoodlums, muggers, making the neighborhood safer and bumping off delinquents . It's certainly thrilling , though the morality may be questionable , even in this time, as the spectators were clearly on the Gary Busey's side . Here Gary Busey is accompanied by a good support cast, such as : Yaphet Kotto , Seymour Cassel , Bert Remsen as priest and William Smith as an extremely baddie . The motion picture was professionally directed by Richard C Sarafian , though it has some flaws and gaps .

nzswanny This movie is basically about some motorbikers killing a man's wife, so the man get's a good revenge on the motorbikers and forces people to join ignorant slobs on his side. Sound's like a terrible movie, right? Surprisingly, not bad, but not good either. It is something that most movies fail to attempt at - make you hate it and love it! This movie is an action packed cheesy 80's gem, starring that one famous actor, Gary Busey! This film may be cheesy, but it's cheesy in a good way! Whoever doesn't like this movie needs some serious help, because although it isn't 10/10, it's still pretty damn good. Gary Busey will impress you with cheesy acting, as you watch this amazing film that ripped off the theme song off Rocky, called, Eye Of The Tiger! 6.3/10!

Sandcooler I don't fully get why I didn't adore this movie, because it has so many things that I enjoy. Firstly it has Gary Busey in one of his few lead roles, but he's so good at playing action villains ("Under Siege" would be his highlight) that you don't really buy him as the straight man. This is most obvious in the infamous bingo hall scene, where he gets to do a long monologue that just doesn't go over at all. This isn't what Busey is good at, and a more competent director would have used his talents more and hid his limitations better. Secondly you have my favorite villain cliché of the 80s: an oddball motorcycle gang that rules a small town. Sadly we only really get to know the leader and everyone else is just an extra standing around doing nothing, which seems like a missed opportunity to me. But the biggest letdown was probably just the lack of action. Logically you'd assume that Busey is going to kill every single biker thus saving the town, but if that's what you expect you're in for a real anticlimax. There are some explosions and gunfights here and there, but you just keep waiting for Busey to go postal which never happens. In fact, for a Vietnam veteran (which in action movies usually makes you Superman) he's really not that tough at all. If the motorcycle gang had any common sense, this movie would be twenty minutes long. "Eye Of The Tiger" isn't the worst movie I've ever seen, but damn I expected so much more.

Zvoni This breath-taking and all guns blazing vigilante flick from 80s is something to look for. Note: If you are fan of films like First Blood, Commando, Lone Wolf McQuade and Death Wish 3 this is a must-see. Gary Busey is tougher than ever in this film, this was his effort to make it bad-ass like Stallone and Norris and he really nails it, teamed with always solid Yaphet Kotto. Talking about mean villains in action flicks, the biker gang here really is something. Conclusion is of course over-the-top final battle action. The biggest surprise is that this movie ain't Cannon Films production, it sure has same feel in it. Don't know what's the point of naming the film after that Eye Of The Tiger song, it's cool title, but song was embodied with Rocky pictures so much already at the time when this came out in 1986. That original track actually plays also in the film if someone wonders. But anyway, absolutely fantastic action classic from the 80s is the case.
