SIDEKICKS!11!!1!!!!!!

I watched Delta Force 2 on AMC the other night. Who knew it became and AMERICAN MOVIE CLASSIC? Anyways, I watched it, and thought it was excellent. Well, at least on an 80's escapism level. If it were released now, it would be called, well, Collateral Damage. :)

The truth is that Chuck peaked in his film debut as Bruce Lee's opponent in Way of the Dragon (aka Return of the Dragon).

All downhill after that.

I'd have to go with Missing in Action.

My favorite is in "Return of the Dragon" where Bruce Lee kicks his ass, then kills him. :thumbsup:

Yeah, where's the option for Way/Return of the Dragon? I surprised at it's lack of inclusion.

Code of Silence (1985) is a 4 star movie, Norris proves he is the no nonsense action hero like Charles Bronson.

Voted for Eye for an Eye.I love this movie.
However you can't go wrong with any of Chuck's movies listed above.

By the way,Why isn't Hero and The Terror on the list?

This was one of the few Chuck Norris roles where I felt he did a decent acting job!

The majority of Chuck Norris films, he portrayed the stereotypical heroic, law enforcement anti-crime characters. So it's very difficult to determine which is the superior movie that he starred in, because basically his portrayals were very similar according to the genre of his movies.

In real life, he is deeply involved in his christianity and personally love God, which is a wonderful thing.

Return of the Dragon, albeit only a supporting role. In a starring role, I would pick Code of Silence.

I loved that flick when I was younger. I'm betting it doesn't hold up well.

Silent Rage by far,it was a movie you wouldnt think would be played by Norris but at the same time he was great in it,the ending was fantastic to but wasnt ruined by 5 sequel's.

Say what, he appeared on Conan? When was this? I've got to find a transcript / video of that, what with the Walker Texas Ranger lever and all.
