Description

U.S. agent Nick Allen (Billy Dee Williams) has his own idea about how to fight a war on drugs: go to the source...and cut the big-time traffickers down. Embittered over the drug-related death of his teenage daughter, Nick sets out to do just that. With stone-cold intensity, he locates and trains a dirty half-dozen recruits for a commando raid on the kingpins of a French drug syndicate. Each recruit has his or her own reason for being part of the death squad. And each has a lethal, take-no-prisoners specialty. Richard Pryor costars as one of the daring team members, and underwater warfare expert armed with a deadly air and a killer wit.

  • Good film but a BIG Problem

    The film itself is excellent, Billy Dee Williams plays a federal agent who loses his daughter to drugs. He decides to target the people who make & manufacture it in Marseilles, France. It's a good, lean 70s thriller with some great character moments (particularly from Richard Pryor) and some wit too. HOWEVER the ITunes version has no subtitles for the French scenes. About 1/4 of the film has French characters (+ Williams) speaking French to each other, explaining elements of the plot. And unless you speak French you will have no idea what they are saying. The DVD version has subtitles for these scenes so I recommend you buy that instead.
