If you’re looking for a great action comedy flick from the eighties and you’ve already seen every single thing with Arnold and Stallone, maybe you should check out Blind Fury. This movie is really the epitome of what made eighties action flicks so much fun. It’s goofy, light hearted, but with a good story, great action, and a really clever gimmick that makes the whole movie very different from many of the other action flicks that came out at the time. We put it on our must see movie downloads list for the next time you want to see a unique action movie while at the same time one that really touches on everything that made action comedy flicks so great back in the nineteen eighties.

The story follows a Vietnam veteran who was abandoned by his old buddy during the war in a moment of cowardice. He lost his eyesight and learned how to use a samurai sword to defend himself before returning to the United States, and he’s on a mission to find the man that left him for dead. Not for revenge, but to forgive him.

Along the way he picks up the man’s son in Miami, Florida, and escorts him to meet his father in Las Vegas, Nevada, who has gotten into some trouble with the local gangsters and hoods. Their quest winds up being surprisingly heart warming and moving, which is nice, considering that it really didn’t need to deliver any more than some action and laughs.

Rutger Hauer is really something in this movie, playing all the action and laughs just right, and, the whole way, convincingly playing a blind man. Besides Hauer, the rest of the cast is pretty great, too. Look out for Randall Tex Cobb as “Slag”, the badguy’s right hand man, who meets a fitting end when he finally gets his come uppance at the end.

The movie is really one of the best of the eighties in terms of action flicks. It really captures what the era was all about. Along the way, there’s also some really good storytelling as the film deals with issues of friendship and abandonment.

Ninja legend Sho Kosugi shows up towards the end for really no reason whatsoever, except to get Sho Kosugi in there. He plays a hired sword who arrives in the US from Japan in order to fight Rutger Hauer just so we can get a great fight scene in there between Hauer and a true legend of Ninja themed action movies.

You’ll also get a kick out of the two redneck brothers who work for the big boss. They’re sort of the comedic duo of the film, and their interactions are consistently quite funny.

It really is too bad that they don’t really make movies like this anymore, but we can at least enjoy these movies with movie downloads. It’s not one of the most well known of the eighties action flicks, but it’s really one of the very best of the era. Funny, exciting, imaginative and fun.
