Summary: "CHUCK FULL OF ACTION!!!"
Comment: I HAD AN OLD FADED VIDEO OF THIS MOVIE. I REMEMBERED THAT I LIKED IT VERY MUCH. WHEN I WATCHED
THIS DVD ON MY BIG SCREEN TV , I WAS KNOCKED OUT!!! THIS IS THE BEST NORRIS MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN!
I ONLY REVIEW WHAT I THINK A CD OR A DVD DESERVES 4 OR 5 STAR'S. THIS FILM , WITHOUT A SHADOW
OF A DOUBT IS, 5 STAR'S!!! YOU GOT ONE GANG PITTED AGAINST ANOTHER,YOU GOT A BAD COP,A KID
LEARNING TO FIGHT HIS BATTLES. THERE IS A VERY FUNNY BAR SCENE . YOU'VE GOT HENRY SILVA AS
ONE OF THE GANG LEADER'S. DENNIS FERINA AS THE COMIC RELIEF. GET IT!!!

Summary: Classic Silliness
Comment: "If I want your opinion, I will beat it out of you" says Chuck Norris to an entire pool-hall of coked-up Columbian gangsters. Need I say more? Good fight scenes, horrible, wooden dialogue, and Chuck taking on a Columbian cartel in Chicago (and police corruption) pretty much single-handedly. This may be his "best" movie.

Summary: CODE OF SILENCE
Comment: A GOOD MAN GETS SINGLED OUT BY HIS PEERS. IT DOES NOT TAKE LONG TO SEE WHO THE CORRUPT COPS ARE. PLENTY OF ACTION WITH GREAT MARTIAL ARTS SEQUENCES.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Classic Norris
Comment: A good solid movie, with all the usual 'Chicago Gang', that you see in so many movies shot in Chicago (Above the Law, Fugitive, etcc....). Chuck kicks butt big-time, and Henry Silva plays a great villian. If you like Chuck, you'll love this one. Just one question-'Does this guy ever age'?
Customer Rating:
Summary: Norris' Best Film
Comment: Code of Silence is by far Chuck Norris' best film. Not only is it great by the standards of his martial arts action films, but is actually a cut above many action pictures.
Norris plays a Chicago cop who finds himself caught between a turf war between the Mafia and a Colombian drug cartel. His standing on the force suffers at the same time because he testifies against two cops who are involved in a bad shooting. The Code of Silence ends up being double-pronged - one side being the Mafia's Code of Silence, and the other being the police force's Code of Silence against bad behavior by their own.
Directed by Andrew Davis, who also directed Above The Law, Under Siege and The Fugitive, Code of Silence has great action sequences and a great villain in Henry Silva. This is Norris' finest film. Nothing he has done before or since has been anywhere near as good.
