Amazon.com Chuck Norris himself cowrote Invasion U.S.A., a movie that's partly a right-wing paranoid fantasy and partly a prescient vision of contemporary terrorism. A Soviet superagent named Rostov leads an invasion of guerrilla squads who, after landing in Florida, spread throughout the U.S. and start shooting bazookas into suburban homes, inciting race riots by impersonating the police and attacking ethnic events, and planting bombs in churches and on school buses. Soon martial law descends as the country sinks into chaos. Only American superagent Matt Hunter (Norris) can take Rostov on, and eventually the two men face off, Rostov in full-body black leather, Hunter in black gloves and painfully tight blue jeans. For anyone who yearns for the simplicity of the cold war and enjoys a vengeance-laden action flick with lots of guns and exploding cars (but little martial arts), Invasion U.S.A. will provide some cinematic comfort food. --Bret Fetzer

I been pulled by the good reviewers and the trailer!! June 20, 2009 Francisco Cortes 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
MAN!! I thought this movie was gonna be an urban "SHOOT THEM UP!!" ONE-MAN ARMY BULLETFEST WAR like Missing in Action, but NOOOO!!!!
First of all, the movie is very slow at the begining, and when it finally gets to the action scenes they are not THAT exciting as you think. Chuck Norris kill a couple of bad guys by using "suprise attacks" until the conclution where you see that all the bad guys are reunited all-together in a building. Just when I thought that he will become an "one-man army" in that building he called the good army and they were the ones that took care most of the terrorrists, and that left 6 bad guys for Chuck inside the building.
The only cool scene was the car chase scene, which was kind of cool.
P.S: If you are looking for a "shoot them up" film by Chuck Norris then pass on this one, but if you can tolerate slow action then this one is for you.
Adios.
"tell Rostov it's time to die!" August 18, 2008 M. Bocchinfuso (Brooklyn, NY, USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This movie proves once and for all that Chuck Norris was the force that ended the Cold War. It's clearly a documentary, or at least largely based on real events.
It is full of explosions, awkward dialogue, and nonsensical terrorist action (magic bazookas! attacking minorities at dance clubs!). And, of course, Chuck "savior of humanity" Norris.
There is some sort of backstory involving Hunter and Rostov, but it's probably irrelevant to the movie - otherwise, they would have put it in, right? Also, a thousand men just happen to slip past the radar of our government. Completely believable.
Perhaps you will also find yourself constantly saying "tell Rostov it's time to die!" as I do, after watching this amazing piece of cinema history. Why it didn't win any awards is beyond me.
IT WAS NICE November 13, 2007 Stedman E. Jackson This was a pretty good movie, it has alot of Chuck Norris Humor in it. If u looking for the movie when he just does MArtial Arts this aint the one it does very little, but alot of explosions and shooting. Pretty good tho

I bought this movie because my daughter was in it. It was filmed in Atlanta Georgia and she was 7 years old at the time. I wanted her to have a copy to keep for the grandchildren if we ever have them.
The sequel is better! April 14, 2007 pierce dalton (UK) AVENGING FORCE is on VHS.
Avenging Force
Region 2 has a full screen DVD.
