Genre: Feature Film-Action/Adventure
Rating: PG

Made in the heady days of movies like Convoy and Smokey and the Bandit, when CB radios were expected to create the kind of communication network the Internet has provided, Breaker! Breaker! tells the tale of J.D. Dawes (Chuck Norris of Good Guys Wear Black and TV's Walker, Texas Ranger), a trucker in tight jeans and a blonde shag. While J.D. is defending his arm-wrestling reputation in a truck stop poolroom, his younger brother Billy is being taken advantage of by the crooked cops of Texas City, California, a former ghost town turned would-be tourist trap, run by a corrupt judge named Joshua Trimmings. When the scam gets out of hand, Billy disappears--and J.D. comes to town to find him. There are many campy things to appreciate about Breaker! Breaker! (the sequined collar of the shirt Norris wears during a meditation teaching, or the glorious air-brushed eagle on Norris's van), and by contemporary Jackie Chan/The Matrix standards the fighting is slow and unspectacular--but ironically, this actually gives the action some grit and makes the blows feel more visceral than the wild flips and kicks of more recent movies. The chase scenes have surprising momentum, and there's some fine scenery-chewing by George Murdock as the wicked judge. And for a curious bit of trivia, Jack Nance--who must have been playing the lead in David Lynch's Eraserhead concurrent with Breaker! Breaker!--plays a trucker friend of Norris's. --Bret Fetzer

I wouldn't rate this under 5, because Chuck Norris Scares me. March 12, 2009

Dude any Chuck Norris movie rocks! This movie is no exception, I would not dare cross Chuck Norris, For he could come after me, And I would not mess with him if you know what i mean??!!! And I would NOT dare to rate this Under 5 stars due to the abovementioned, that said, this movie is a masterpiece, As it is a Trucker Movie, A Small town gone bad movie(Bad Day at Black Rock Anyone?) and A High Kicking punching Movie! The Truck Scenes are a couple especially towards later on, but the fighting is intense once you get to it. And Come on it's Chuck Norris!
