5.0 out of 5 starsThe Original Expendable
By Gary James Taylor on 31 Oct. 2012
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
The Octagon (UK Region B Blu-Ray) Anchor Bay
1980, 104 mins

Scott`s (Chuck Norris) life is plagued by memories of his accidentally injuring a friend during the rigorous training he endured under a master arts master. A wealthy heiress, who seeks revenge against an international terrorist camp known as The Octagon, enlists his help through suspense and intrigue, because he is the only one who can defeat his adopted brother running the operation.

If you like Chuck Norris this Blu-Ray is essential also starring is the beautiful Karen Carlson who`s not afraid to get her hands dirty and fire a few rounds and Richard Norton has a funny one on one with Chuck Norris and is part of the Chuck Norris stunt team for this movie and makes an impression for his debut, the picture is very clear a few spots of grain but hardly noticeable.

The audio comes with 2.0 Stereo and a very impressive 5.1 DTS which makes good use of the gunfire and explosions.
Aspect Ratio for this movie is a nice 1.78:1 Anamorphic (16:9)
The special features are the same as the region 1 dvd but a first for UK buyers:-
Making of The Octagon (39 m 27s)
Trailer - Tv spot
Directors commentary (Alan Belkin)
How America Changed Hollywood Forever.(28m 58s)Also on "A Force Of One"

Anchor Bay have out done themselves with this release and "A Force Of One" also on Blu-Ray and hope thay can release "Good Guys Wear Black" which was also made by AMERICA CINEMA CORP, INC. 10 OUT OF 10.

3.0 out of 5 starsTo kick nin-jas in the head or not to kick nin-jas in the head - that is Chuck's question...
By Trevor Willsmer HALL OF FAMETOP 50 REVIEWER on 28 Jun. 2014
Format: Blu-ray
Chuck Norris vs. an army of ninjas – no wonder many regard The Octagon as the Gone with the Wind of Chuck Norris movies. It’s not, of course: it’s really the Hamlet of Chuck Norris movies with our hero and his often indecipherable echoplex interior monologue prevaricating when asked by Lee Van Cleef’s anti-terrorist agent to help him stop Chuck’s Japanese brother who is now training international terrorists and mercenaries in the nin-ja (as people keep on pronouncing it) way in his octagonal arena, prevaricating when Karen Carlson’s heiress asks for his protection from nin-ja trained mercenaries, prevaricating when repentant would-be terrorist Carol Bagdasarian asks his help to get away from the nin-jas who not only kill their failures but their entire families as well… In fact he spends so much time prevaricating before he learns that inaction is also an action that he doesn’t get to kick much ass until the last twenty minutes. And just in case you don’t get that Chuck’s just like the Prince of Denmark, Carlson even takes his best dead meat buddy Art Hindle to see Hamlet so he can make a quip about the hero not making his mind up (though not, curiously, commenting on the fact that just like Hamlet he’s absolutely crap at saving anyone’s life).

The kind of action film that nobody goes to see on the big screen anymore, the plot makes very little sense unless you’re very, very drunk and even then you might find yourself asking just why all the terrorist recruits turn on their nin-ja tutors at the end (answer: to up the body count).Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsThe Octagon: The eight facial expressions of Chuck Norris
By Victor HALL OF FAMETOP 500 REVIEWER on 24 Jan. 2013
Format: DVD
This early film from Chuck Norris, made before his trademark beard came into existence, has so many things wrong with it that it should be a complete disaster. But for somereason it all works. The plot made no sense to me whatsoever. I really can't summarise it. For some reason Norris is hunting down some ninjas, one of which he seems to have some psychic connection to. Lee Van Cleef pops up for no other reason than to try and add a bit of star power. People are assassinated or kidnapped for the sole purpose of getting the hero into action. The hero has so many personal demons to overcome before he can bring himself to act that it should drag the film right down. There are badly made dream sequences where the dialogue is incomprehensible. There seems to be no reference to octagons anywhere in the film. And Norris's acting is wooden in the extreme.

But such is the star quality of the all conquering Norris, that even without his beard he can make this turkey fly. I don't know how or why, but his presence turns what should by all rights be a complete drag into something quite fun. The action sequences are plentiful, and well staged. And Norris showing off his karate skill is always entertaining. It's watchable brain at the door stuff, and worth 4 stars.

4.0 out of 5 starsBlu Review 63 - The Octagon & A Force of One
By Blu Review Obscura on 9 Aug. 2012
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
The Octagon / A Force of One

Distributor : Anchor Bay Entertainment (UK)

Considering the wealth of Chuck Norris jokes available online it becomes increasingly difficult to seriously review his movies without instantly referencing any of the material available.

Both of the movies reviewed here originate from the late 70's/early 80's Chuck Norris era (minus the beard) where he was just beginning to acquire a strong fan base which would ultimately result in a string of movies being released right up to the new millennium at the rate of at least one film per year. Chuck was certainly kept busy through this period and produced some memorable movies (some for more obvious reasons than others) all of which were pretty entertaining if not taken too seriously and together made up a decent wedge of some the best classic actioners of the time.

The Octagon tells the story of a terrorist organisation training Ninja assassins to do their bidding with Chuck Norris being the only one who can stop the killings. The film builds to a climactic showdown set within an 8 sided arena with Chuck vs an army of masked killers although there will be no prizes for guessing how this one turns out.

Presented fully uncut including a number of sequences involving lethal Ninja weapons which the BBFC previously took exception to, The Octagon showcases a 1080p 1.78:1 transfer which is actually a lot better than may have been expected. Detail is sharp and reasonably strong throughout, colours are vibrant and black levels show an impressive amount of depth throughout the proceedings.Read more ›
