Raw Deal (1986)
Country: US
Technical: col/scope 106m
Director: John Irvin
Cast: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kathryn Harrold, Sam Wanamaker
Synopsis:
A disgraced agent is re-employed covertly to avenge the murdered son of the FBI head, which requires he go undercover and join the mob.
Review:
Unpretentious action drama along Chuck Norris lines, made to capitalize on the star's burgeoning success. Well-produced, and on the whole more affecting than other, overblown, efforts, though the climactic display of musculature and weaponry is tiresomely obligatory. Good support from Harrold and Wanamaker, but strictly for insomniacs.
