Trivia
Filmed back to back with Missing in Action, this film was supposed to be released first. However when the producers realized the second film was the better of the two, they released it first and named this film a prequel. This explains why screenwriter Steve Bing receives a credit for "characters" in what became the first Missing in Action. See more »Goofs
Braddock is seen using an M1911A1 pistol during the POW rebellion. During the final showdown with Col. Yin, his pistol changes to a Colt Combat Commander. See more »Quotes

I'm not a huge Chuck Norris fan but after watching this movie I know why people are. At the time when this came out this movie was the greatest P.O.W movie out there. Graphic and raw! For my money Chuck has never done better and that is no put down of his other movies. This one just hits the mark in so many ways. After watching this movie you will know why there are so many Chuck is so tough jokes. EX:Chuck Norris doesn't do push ups he pushes the earth Down. Do yourself a favor and watch this movie. I know it has some age on it now but its still Chucks best. Its not the Terminator, Aliens, or Star Wars but for what it sets out to be its really worth a watch.
