Italian heart throb(?) Mark Gregory stars as a Native American Rambo clone who after protesting the bank building on his tribe's land is then later beat up by the locals and finally beaten up by the cops swipes a bow and arrow and steals a bulldozer to destroy the town in a derivative but very boring First Blood clone. Thunder Warrior represents a very sad case of good news and bad news scenario. The good news is the film is adequately made, the production values are serviceable and the story has even a few things that are actually timely now via the politics, and yet as much I would love to sing the praises of such, the problem is the story is too simplistic, the dialogue too leaden, the directing too boring and action too lame to add up to anything but a one star review. It's a shame too, cause I find Mark Gregory a Bad Movie icon, but this dull dud sans any of the goofy dumb charm or unintentional hilarity of 1990:Bronx Warriors or Escape From The Bronx. In fact for a movie that promised big machine guns and Rambo esque action, Thunder Warrior rates as a big loser.
