Plot: Stuart Rosenberg, under the guise of Alan Smithee, directed this action film concerning a soldier of fortune sent into a South American country to rescue a kidnapped American during a revolutionary upheaval. Harry Burk Jr. (Mark Harmon) and United States Ambassador Douglas (Bruce Gray) are held hostage by Colombian drug dealers who demand the release of associates who are imprisoned in the United States. But the U.S. government refuses to negotiate with the drug dealers. In disgust, Harry's brother Corey (Michael Schoeffling) and three of his friends (Tom Wilson, Glen Frey, and Rick Rossovich), along with an adventurous auto dealer named Jack (Gary Busey), hire mercenary soldier Shrike (Robert Duvall) to sneak into Columbia and rescue Harry. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide

I saw this movie in a theater during my early teens. It is one of the most entertaining movies I saw at that time and so I thought that I would see it again. Unfortunately, due to heavy load of school work, I totally forgot about seeing it again. But, after all these years, I still haven't forgotten the title of the movie. Seldom do a movie make an impact that I remember anything about it. I especially remember the soundtrack of Let's Get Harry. Although I can't sing the lyrics, I can hum the melody. How's that? So now I am now hoping for the DVD version to buy.

One-liners flow as Busey and gang mount a rescue mission
Added 4/14/1999

It's a shame this video is no longer available in stores! I've only read poor reviews of this movie, but Gary Busey fans will delight at his most colourful characterisation of all time as car salesman Smilin' Jack Abernaugthy. A touch unbelievable at times - well maybe all the time - but delivers a fine serving of action. Robert Duval contributes his talents as the short-lived mercenary Shrike. We also discover that the would-be tough guy of group turns into a chicken when asked to kill.

Trust me, this one's a must for all B-grade action fans!
