"Rapid Fire" will not claim any awards for originality of plot (this is a simple, straightforward B-movie compared to Brandon Lee's next, last and best film, "The Crow"), but it moves fast, and the action scenes are exciting and well-staged. Lee is charismatic, athletic, impressive; he had the stuff to be an action star (he's like a likable Steven Seagal who can act). He uses both brain and brawn to escape from sticky situations. Yes he brushes off a few too many injuries, but that's par for the course in this genre. Kate Hodge, whose career never quite took off, makes for a sexy love interest. **1/2 out of 4.
