Reception

[edit]

From contemporary reviews, a review in the German film almanac Fischer Film Almnach declared that the film had more action and slow motion shots than the first film, but it just as much poor quality direction, script and acting.[1] A reviewer credited as "Lor." of Variety reviewed the film on Trans World Entertainment video cassette on June 9, 1987.[2] "Lor." described the film as "photogenic if uneventful sequel" noting that Monument Valley was a "lovely backdrop for this nonsense, rendered a bit hard to take by the pidgin English dialog".[2]
