Remo. 1985.
A officially dead new York cop is recruited to be a assassin in the service of the government and The president.
For me this is a very underrated 80s action comedy movie starring Fred Ward who is forcefully recruited by a secret agency called CURE, that uncovers corruption within the military and connection to a millionaire. Wilford Brimley and J.A. Preston play the only members that Remo is aware of until he meets Chiun played by Joel Grey who becomes his mentor.
Written by Christopher Wood who penned two James Bond Films and Directed by Guy Hamilton who directed a few Bond movies brought the character to the screen that was to start a new action hero that only came to life once unfortunately. There is some good funny moments, cinematography and a nice chase about the Statue Of Liberty, even Chiun shows us how to put hoops round a bottle.
