MISSION OF JUSTICE is another straight-to-video action flick of the 1990s, one that's a bit more lively and entertaining than most despite the lack of money behind it. The cliff-like Jeff Wincott - always something of an underrated presence during the decade, I feel - plays an ordinary guy who ends up joining a group of vigilantes fighting to keep crime off the streets. Before long he discovers that there's a conspiracy spearheaded by none other than Brigitte Nielsen, chewing the scenery at the top. The action is kick-heavy and plentiful, certainly enlivened by the presence of man-mountain Matthias Hues as a heavy and Karen Sheperd as a kick-butt cop. Sure, the plot is cliched and the staging not particularly imaginative, but in terms of bang-for-your-buck fight action, MISSION OF JUSTICE delivers.
