If you paid money for this movie, you got stuck. "Plan Nine From Outer Space" the worst movie ever? Maybe until this one came along. Semi trucks never seen on pavement? Weird. Usually they drive on major roads, not the set of some dirt movie ranch. I know. They was just trying to cash in on the C.B. radio craze. This movie is bad. A real stinkeroo. Chuck sucked. Poor retarded Arnie seemed to be the best actor in it. I like it when he dies: "I'm mad at you." (his brother accidentally shot him) He then closes his eyes and says, "It's getting' dark." I'm sorry. I laughed my...I laughed. An Acadamy Award nominated scene it wasn't. Oh, the humanity! This movie was on last night. I KNOW it sucks, yet I watched it from start to finish. Why? I'm just a glutton for punishment. Lots of bloopers. An extensive off road chase with huge clouds of dust. Chuck gets away and goes to some broads house. Close up shows not a speck of dust on a freshly washed and waxed van. Check out when the trick van drives through a barn wall or fence. The wood is cardboard. When the town gets destroyed not one building has much more than plywood. Some were just a single false-front wall! Building codes in "Texas City"? Nope. Just trash. Like the movie. A great "UpChuck Inducer".

the stupidest, Trucker.karate,hillbilly,"movie" ever made. Chuck Norris with blonde hair. This phony movie made me ill. I am watching it now,but I don;t know how long I can take it. Awful,Bad,terrible acting,directing,any other category that you can think off. This makes rednecks look good, Chuck Norris could never act. He acts like he came from another planet and can not understand whats happening. I grade this one star.Its degrading sterotype.Hillbillys.truckers,Redneck,Cops..this movie is so bad I can't think of anymore words to describe it . Even in 1977 this would have been considered bad. I think that they tried to get on the same bandwagon as those "smokey and the Bandit movies which were equally stupid movies. But they had I little more story line and acting. this is just a complete stupid,moron movie.

Breaker! Breaker! Here we got Chuck Norris with his golden blonde hair flowing in the wind starring in his first leading role, where he's not only kicking ass (that's hillbilly ass), but driving a truck. That's a ten-four. "Breaker! Breaker!" is an ultra-cheap, b-grade action outing where marital arts meet spaghetti westernÂ… kind of. Well it has that operatic style in its clunky direction, like the outstanding climatic showdown. Close ups on the faces, slow-motion and a rousing score. One-sided, but powerful. Everything about this feature is daft (especially the truck convey to the rescue), but it doesn't seem to know that. Still it's rather amusing watching Norris in a small backwoods town causing a ruckus. Ultimate chaos! "Dukes of Hazards" chaos. Looks like all in a good days work. Easy work too. I don't think I ever saw him break a sweat, moving on from one encounter to another. What occurs it just so unhinged, if pedestrian. The story is threadbare, as trucker Billy Dawes disappears during his first solo run, so his older brother J.D sets out to find him. This leads J.D to a small remote community that's run by a corrupt judge who preys upon unsuspecting motorists. Simple, but fairly madcap with a comical air. The villains corn it up, as George Murdock goes over-the-top as the crazy judge. Norris looking good in double denim and black gloves goes about his business accordingly. Deadpan, but in what counts it's a marvel to see him in his element. Even when he's beaten up or wounding a gunshot. Nothing slows down this man on a mission. Of brotherly love. Then you got the southern hillbilly twang to the music score, you know that boot kicking stuff. An oddball, low-grade action Norris fare."I'm not going anywhere until I know where my brother is."

Breaker! Breaker! is the kind of mindless action film that fans of the genre have grown to love. The plot was thin, the acting even thinner, but what the movie excelled in was fast paced stunts and neck-cracking roundhouse kicks - the kind of kicks that only Chuck Norris can deliver. Breaker! Breaker! doesn't take itself seriously and it's not supposed to. It's meant to be a movie you went and watched at the drive-in with a girl on one arm and a cold beer in the other. If you watch this movie intent on solid plot and character development, then you're going to be in for a rude awakening. It's meant to entertain and amuse you for 90 minutes and thats all, and it accomplishes that fairly well.
