Action JacksonNo-brain actioner that, despite a plethora of stunts, f/x and car chases is only-ever-so-slightly exciting. Jericho 'Action' Jackson (Weathers) is the disgraced Detroit cop who seeks revenge on the crooked businessman (Nelson) who cost him his job and his wife. Directed by one-time stunt maestro Baxley, this lacks the oomph that could have propelled it out of the doldrums into the wave-making thriller it desperately wants to be. Weathers (in his first starring role) looks uncomfortable and the rest of the cast (including Stone) just get on with it as best they can. Disappointing.
