Martial Law

ActionAdventureCrimeDrama89 min

An undercover cop teams up with a martial-arts expert to stop a gang of drug smugglers and car thieves. Cynthia Rothrock and David Carradine lead the central law-enforcement partnership, with the case unfolding through undercover work, criminal rackets, and a steady run of hand-to-hand fights. The story keeps its attention on the mechanics of the investigation as much as the action, pairing police-movie stakes with martial-arts showdowns as the two officers move closer to the group they’re trying to bring down.
