We've seen it before, but Chuck Norris keeps it moving., 15 November 2000
Author: lartronic from Akron, Ohio.

In fact, if it wasn't for Norris, this movie would have almost nothing to recommend it by. The plot concerns Terrorists invading the U.S. (Therefore giving this film the title "Invasion U.S.A.) and Norris comes to the rescue. Of course, we know what's going to happen from the start, but there's just something about the whole idea that makes it worth watching. If Norris wasn't in this, only action addicts would like watching this. Pretty bad plot wise, but good in a action sense of mind.
