Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Excellent adaptation.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Hulk Hogan leads an elite Navy SEALS team chosen for an audacious mission to rescue a group of nationals being held captive by a drug lords soldiers who want their leader released. Assault on Devil's Island probably benefits from Shannon Tweed's big chest but other than that? I wouldn't call it a very memorable flick. Hulk Hogan was Hulk Hogan, Carl Weathers looks nothing like Creed or Dillon in this movie and a bunch of other actors show up as well. Overall i'd say give it a watch only if you're bored or just wanna waste time with something. (5/10)

I've seen a LOT of action films in my time and a LOT of bad ones too. Practically anything with Chuck Norris (President's Man, A Force of One), the horrendous Bad Pack with Robert Davi, Lawnmower Man 2 and Strike of the Panther with Edward Stazak but this film is not one of them. The main reason I enjoyed this film was the cast. They seem to work well together and make up for Hulk Hogan's questionable acting ability (to be honest he seemed all right to me and MUCH better than Arnold Schwarzenegger in Raw Deal). I was pleased to see Carl Weathers who in my opinion hasn't done NEARLY enough action films. He was great in Predator and the Rocky Films as well as in his starring role Action Jackson. Martin Kove from Karate Kid is also well cast. A strange inclusion was erotic thriller queen Shannon Tweed. The movie also includes a real former Navy SEAL in Mike White. The baddies are Billy Drago, Trevor Goddard (Kano from Mortal Kombat) and Billy Blanks.The plot is pretty standard and as I said only the cast makes it a good film. It has the team going after a drug baron, one of the team turning traitor, the traitor kidnaps a load of gymnasts to get the drug baron back and then the team mounting a rescue of the hostages. Pretty standard stuff but the action is non stop with guns, fists and explosions. Don't be put off because of the other reviews on here, this film is so much better than a lot of other TV action movies.

Whilst this movie could never be called a fantastic movie it is still worth one look.I like Hulk Hogan but what attracted me to the film initially (apart from Hogan) was the casting-we had Shannon Tweed (beautiful!) and underrated actors Martin Kove and Carl Weathers. What a team they all made.It's a fairly routine action thriller but there are some great scenes throughout the movie particularly at the end when the team all go out to rescue the hostages.There are a lot of other action movies out there that are fantastic but this is certainly decent enough.

Wow I was taken aback by the stunning special effects and non stop action in this great TV movie. The acting from the Hulkster and Shannon Tweed was second to none someone give those guys an academy award. This movie is good enough for the big screen surely, let me be the first to demand a sequel.
