Critic Reviews

Bill Cosford

It is almost a prototypical action picture; there is never a moment when something isn't happening or about to happen, and the fact that most of the action makes no sense doesn't matter much when events move this fast. [27 Sep 1985, p.D7]

TV Guide Magazine Staff (Not Credited)

A numbingly stupid actioner, Invasion U.S.A. has one of the most laughable villains ever committed to film. Read full review

Paul Attanasio

Invasion USA might actually be fun in a campy way if it weren't so dourly exploitative. Read full review

Staff (Not Credited)

A brainless plot would be almost forgivable were it not for the perverse depiction of innocents butchered in Invasion U.S.A. Read full review

Vincent Canby

Though in his last movie, Code of Silence, Mr. Norris, the karate champion-turned-movie actor, seemed on the verge of becoming a kind of benign Clint Eastwood character, he loses all credibility in this awful film. Read full review

Gene Siskel

Has a terrific premise but no script. Read full review

Staff (Not Credited)

Leaden, xenophobic, and utterly stupid, it's far more offensive than Rambo and far less well executed. Read full review

This movie is hilarious watching it in 2022. It is the epitaph of 80´s Over the top action movies.
If Chuck Norris fact is based on one of his movies, This IS IT!!!
Norris never gets touched, scratched or injured ONCE. Plot is super thin. Some Russian whacko decides to invade USA because "heThis movie is hilarious watching it in 2022. It is the epitaph of 80´s Over the top action movies.

Norris never gets touched, scratched or injured ONCE.
Plot is super thin. Some Russian whacko decides to invade USA because "he can". No background story needed.
Apparently he has a horn in the side for Chuck Norris character which he tries to kill off in the beginning, but with no success.
Russian whacko invades Miami USA with four landing craft boats full of terrorist. Chuck is in pursuit goes after him with 2 Uzi submachine guns as his preferred weapon. He just drives around Miami looking for trouble. Some terrorist opens fire somewhere, Chuck comes around to have fun with them.
There is so many outrageous scenes in this movie with a non-existent script.
The US Army eventually shows up with a dozen tanks and boatloads of troops and firepower, but seems to have trouble to wipe out a small squadron of vigilante terrorists in the last stand-off.. Hilarious
The terrorists pulls up to Suburb homes with single-use bazookas that seems to have 5 rockets in them and randomly kills families and kids. shopping mall and a bus loaded with children are victim of bombs. Random drive by spray and pray on innocent people.. Its brutal and violent with no sense of plot what so ever.. Haha.
Luckily, Chuck is often there to save the day.
It is a comedy, not an action movie. I laughed the whole way trough.
LEGENDARY Norris movie..… Expand
