It's all good,but could be better.

The movie was okay but it could be better. The scene was good but they should do an uncut version to this movie. Vanity was hot and find as hell. Carl Weathers was alright when he played the part of Action Jackson. And Sharon Stone was okay to. They should remake this movie unrated. They should also have the full nudity in this film. I understand that this movie was made back in the days, but when they release this on DVD they should have remade this movie uncut. But other than that, this movie was alright with me. Thanks Amazon on demand.

"Action Jackson" is a competently standard showcase for Carl Weathers' superhero cool...
Added 8/7/2008
Action is a proud man, a high-school track star, a dedicated cop, a sergeant who lost his lieutenant's stripes almost two years ago...
He jostles a conceited, two-faced, backstabbing mass murderer called Peter Dellaplane (Craig T. Nelson). Director Craig R. Baxley has not only carried it off, but makes you believe it... One must also give some of the credit to Carl Weathers whose erect muscular body and his charm and good looks give some credence to the heroics...
The picture contains fun, lots of action, and two sexy women...
Vanity looked so gorgeous when she was shot up with heroin...
Stone met her husband after his first wife died and his son went to prison... She thinks that he may seem greedy and arrogant but he remained loved by everyone, and the whole experience changed him... She also thinks that Jackson is not so different from her husband, that both are stubborn, and both intent on getting what they want...

Should have been a franchise for Weathers
Added 3/25/2008
I remeber seeing Action Jackson when I was seven years old and enjoying the movie like it was the best thing since sliced bread. I bouhgt the film on DVD back in 2003 and I enjoyed even more now and take for what it is a action comedy. Carl Weathers recalls Richard Roundtree's Shaft and Jim's Kelly Performance as Black Belt Jones. The film is full over the top and one that's for the guys.

elementarily stupid and cliched to the extreme
Added 1/16/2007
childish screenplay with formulaic dialog, explosions, unnecessary nudity scenes, unnecessary clown-like keep-fainting pickpocket-bag snatching guy, unnecessary gun shooting scenes, song...ruined a lot of furniture, broke a lot of windows, unnecessary man-of-the-year award scene.....almost 80% of this movie could be deleted without hurting the super shallow and hollow childish movie. worse than reading a comic book. a total waste of the production fund which could do a lot good for the 3rd world countries.
