A Central American drug kingpin rules his part of the rain forest with the help of an impressive mercenary army, lead by Henry Silva.
A small American commando unit sneaks into the country to assassinate him, but the tables soon turn and the three men (including Miles O'Keeffe who for once does an adequate acting job due to the fact he hasn't got to do any acting) have to flee through the jungle.
Being tough-minded professionals, they soon decide to attack the enemy camp and accomplish their initial mission at any cost.
The Hard Way (directed by Michele Massimo Tarantini) is the non-silly Italian Eighties action film condensed to its essence. After the initial exposition there is barely anything else than lots and lots and lots of explosions, shoot-outs and brawls, spiced up with people running through the jungle, cheap synthie music and Henry Silva.
Personally, I prefer the less tight and lean and more idiotic type of Italian action films, but if you have your mind set on seeing a lot of explosions, you'll certainly have a fine time with this.
