Did you know
- TriviaThe dojo "Bruce" takes a lesson in is the same dojo that appeared in 'The Karate Kid' franchise which was soon around the corner about a couple of years later.
- GoofsIn the movie, "Bruce" sees the Boss of Bosses giving Freddy the "Kiss Of Death" and mentions that he knows about the kiss from watching the Godfather movies. "Bruce" also tells the Boss of Bosses that he doesn't kiss as well as Marlon Brando. Marlon Brando never actually gave the kiss of death in the original film "The Godfather"; it was actually first bestowed on John Cazale by Al Pacino in "The Godfather Part II."

Johnny Yune Was Absolutely Hilarious
"Bruce" (Johnny Yune) is a hapless cook who just happens to work for the main mafia boss on the west coast. But things aren't going good for the mob because of a series of drug busts by the feds. So the boss of the west coast named "Lil Pete" (Bill Capizzi) decides to use an unsuspecting Bruce to deliver his cocaine throughout the United States by fooling him into thinking that it is flour from China. Naturally, Bruce doesn't know any better. He also doesn't suspect that his new girlfriend, "Anita" (Pam Huntington) is a federal agent who has planted a bug on him to track his movements. Meanwhile, another mobster on the west coast named "Big Al" (Martin Azarow) is seeking to discredit Lil Pete and has his girlfriend, "Karmen" (Margaux Hemingway) follow Bruce to inhibit his deliveries. Anyway, rather than detail the entire plot I will just say that for a low-budget comedy this wasn't too bad. Johnny Yune was absolutely hilarious. Unfortunately, the action scenes and everything not centered on him fell completely flat. In addition, the middle portion of the film really seemed to drag. All in all then I rate this film as about average.
