Remo Williams - The Adventure Begins Summary When A Street-smart Nypd Cop (fred Ward) Regains Consciousness After A Bizarre Mugging, He Has A New Face And A New Identity! Now HeÂ's Remo Williams, The #1 Recruit Of A Top-secret Organization, And HeÂ's Toppling Evil At Every Turn Â– Even Atop The Statue Of Liberty Â– In This Â"spectacular And Funny Adventure FilmÂ" (gene Siskel, Chicago Tribune)! Trained By A Quirky Korean Martial Arts Master (joel Grey) To Dodge Bullets, Brave Terrifying Heights And Thwart Attackers With His Bare Hands, Remo Becomes The Ultimate Criminal Exterminator. But When He Faces Off Against A Corrupt Millionaire And His Army Of Henchmen, The Real Adventure Begins!

Talk about hubris: this film, released at the height of sequelmania in the mid-1980s, came with its own intimations of future sequels built right into the title. Unfortunately, you have to make a good first film in order to generate follow-ups--something these filmmakers didn't manage--so the adventure began and ended with this one. Based on the pulp paperback adventure series The Destroyer, the film deals with a ne'er-do-well, Remo Williams (Fred Ward), who is recruited to battle the forces of evil. He is trained by an Asian martial arts master who, in those days before political correctness, was played by Joel Grey in heavy makeup. But the action is both forced and preposterous, jokey without every really being funny. The best thing about the film is Grey--and his stereotyped depiction of an Asian is pretty hard to take today. --Marshall Fine
