“David Carradine makes you believe a laid back lethargic soldier can become a one man killing machine in the jungles of the u0026#39;Nam. This film is lots of fun, anybody expecting military and historical accuracy will suffer the same kind of disappointment as someone expecting to see David Carradine perform with all the speed and agility of Bruce Lee.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eCarradine and his fellow P.O.W.s suffer at the hands of a VC officer who secretly harbors a desire for the American dream, he demands that Carradine aid him in achieving it. Instead the Tai Chi expert and the dependable Steve James (you could pair James up with Hugh Grant and still be guaranteed victory) serve up a healthy dose of mayhem and sends Charlie running most ricki tik. If youu0026#39;ve run out of Chuck Norris war films to watch, P.O.W. the Escape will fill the void.”
