The Lone Wolf never dies. He just stops needing enemies.

A classic Chuck Norris. 1980s action with caricatured bad guys and a bright and shiny hero. Good entertainment for fans of the genre and of the man.

Just watched this and it was fantastic, silly 80s action at its best. Makes me wanna pour beer over my head and get a Dodge Ramcharger :)

Every time I look at Chuck Norris here, I keep thinking of Walker, and that’s part of the problem. McQuade is clearly not Walker Texas Ranger yet. He’s a drunk, a loner, a messy bachelor, and more of a brute-force bull in a china shop than a polished hero, which honestly makes him more interesting on paper than in execution. The movie is often described as a kind of neo-Western built around Norris’s screen persona, and you can definitely feel that soft prototype energy.   But let’s be honest: everyone is really here to see Norris and David Carradine throw down, and the movie takes too long getting there. Carradine mostly feels like he wandered over from Kung Fu and decided to play Kane with a criminal payroll. The final fight should have been the big payoff, and instead it’s just okay. Even though Norris and Carradine reportedly did the fight themselves and spent days shooting it, the scene still doesn’t land with the impact it should have.   The rest of the movie has that slightly more violent made-for-TV vibe, with acting that’s about what you’d expect from an early-80s karate flick and a lot of noise standing in for excitement. Some critics liked its slam-bang action and Western flavor, but others thought the violence got numbing, which feels closer to the truth for me.   As karate movies go, this is below average. There are plenty better ones out there.

"Lady, if I want to kill myself... it's my own business. " Double Dragon video game must have been directly influenced by Lone Wolf McQuade.
