“JACK HUNTER: THE STAR OF HEAVEN is the last of the three made-for-TV movies starring Ivan Sergei as everybodyu0026#39;s least favourite Indiana Jones rip-off. This oneu0026#39;s slightly more lively than the previous – terrible – instalment in the trilogy, JACK HUNTER: THE QUEST FOR AKHENATANu0026#39;S TOMB, but that doesnu0026#39;t make it anywhere approaching good.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHunter and his chums are back, attempting to solve the mystery of a plundered tomb in their search for an ancient magical artifact. This time around, the Russian mob are also involved in the search, so we get a nonsensical storyline padded out with various inept chase sequences. The stunts seem to always be cheesily handled by director Terry Cunningham, although thatu0026#39;s nothing compared to the ineptitude of the special effects team; just wait until you see that CGI lava! u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTHE STAR OF HEAVEN contains a mixture of wooden and embarrassing performances across the board, a general tired seen-it-all-before air of nonchalance, and little reason to watch for all but the most enthusiastic of B-movie veterans.”
