Cheap but funny. We got a huge laugh out of this as kids. Re-watching as an adult wasn't as fun. But there's still a lot of good scenes. I like how "Bruce" would threaten his enemies with his hands. Some of the humour is groan-inducing. It's a curious comedy from the 80's decade not unlike the Police Academy series.
