Granted, Marvin is not the star. That honor goes to William Smith, who plays the leader of a biker gang. Smith is T. J. (I'm pretty sure that doesn't stand for Tor Johnson), and he spends most of the movie showing off his impressive torso. The plot revolves around one member of the gang causing the death of two women. Turns out one of the women's boyfriends is a Green Beret named Mitch, played woodenly by Tony Young. So Mitch gets his buddies together, which includes Gaye, Peter Brown and some other guy I never heard of. The foursome set out to take out the trash. We get an absurd sequence where they buy Kawasakis and train on them, becoming such experts that they can vault over trucks and ride standing on the seats. The climax is ridiculous and boring, as they use various military weapons to subdue the gang.
Not much can be said about the acting, but I'll try. Young looks like he is hypnotized for most of the film, so it's hard to root for him. It's even harder once he gets it on with one of the biker chicks, considering he just buried his girlfriend. Now if you read that previous sentence, I guess I could have phrased it differently. Anyway, the chick is played by cutie Kathy Baumann, who doesn't impress with her acting but does impress with her body. Thank you, Kathy. I don't know why Gaye was cast in this film, unless it was because Smokey Robinson wasn't available. Brown is decent, but has to take a back seat to everyone else. Smith plays his usual bad dude with great aplomb, and even manages to get off a few good lines. In fact, there are a few humorous scenes in the film, like when the good guys put in an order for the equipment they need to carry the fight - which includes grenade launchers, explosives, and a very large truck. Now I'm no military expert, but I'm pretty sure you can't use this stuff against civilians, even if they are scum.
