Charles Bronson is an LA cop with a prejudice against Asians, who gets assigned the case of the kidnapped daughter of a Japanese buisness man. Even by the standards of Bronson revenge films this one is particularly dark and nihilistic. Roger Ebert called the film "throughly unpleasant", I'd mostly agree, but it can still be "car wreck" fascinating at times. The bad guys are vile and the "good guys" break laws they are supposed to be enforcing, even accidentally killing one of the bad guys during an "interigargration". The final battle between Bronson and the baddies is memorable. **
