Final Score
Synopsis
Richard Brown, a decorated Vietnam War veteran now living in Indonesia, discovers that gunmen invaded his home, murdered his son, Bobby, (preparing to celebrate his 8th birthday), and gang-raped and murdered his wife, Florinda. Vowing revenge, he begins to track down the culprits, learning in the process that they're in the employ of a business rival named Hawk. At one point he's captured, beaten, and tortured but then he's rescued by Julia, Hawk's personal secretary, who also seeks revenge on her employer for causing the death of her sister. Brown eventually finds and confronts Hawk at Hawk's fortress-like compound.

This might hold the record for the most explosions I've ever seen in a movie. Things are constantly blowing up. It's insane.
It may also hold the record for most innocent bystanders brutally gunned down, 'cause it seemed like an awful lot to me.
Anyway, this is a gonzo action flick starring Robert Mitchum's son, Chris. It's the kind of dumb where the hero's motivation is exacting revenge on the men who killed his wife, then he goes ahead and falls in love with some other girl a few days later. But it's also the kind of awesome where Mitchum blows up a car with a rocket launcher and then somehow jumps his car over the flaming wreck. The awesome…

A lot of movies claim to be non-stop action... and there's FINAL SCORE which barely takes 10 minutes total out of its plot to stop the killing and exploding. Chris Mitchum takes on the whole of Indonesia and leaves everything dead and on fire. The body count is well into the triple digits. A total blast.

It took me two nights to watch this because I was rewinding so many scenes out of sheer disbelief at what I was seeing. This was directed by Arizal, the action genius who brought us the more notorious The Stabilizer, and he delivers so much insane action in this that it's hard to comprehend. Huge explosions take down buildings every few minutes, stuntmen get hit by cars without any camera tricks or apparent safety precautions, and lead Christopher Mitchum probably kills over 100 henchmen in every way imaginable. I only took half a star away for a sort of slow but uncomfortably nasty first 10 minutes, but after that it transforms into a crazed, almost surreal action film. I enjoyed this so much that I'm already planning to watch it again soon. If this was seen by more people I have no doubt it would be a legendary cult film.

More Chris Mitchum under the direction of Arizal aka more ridiculous violent fun.
This time we have what is pretty much an Indonesian Death Wish with Mitchum in the Kersey role (even going so far as to proclaim than he is "death" when asked who he is ala Death Wish 4...although oddly, this came out the year before Death Wish 4...).
Mitchums son is brutally gunned down (on his birthday no less, harsh) and his wife gang raped before ultimately dying herself, this leaves Mitchum itching to settle the score...the final score (*high five*).
With this being an Arizal movie you have pretty much one action set piece after the next, explosions followed by a car chase followed by a…
