![]() Witnessing some biker punks harrassing the waiting staff and finally assaulting the manager, McCoy saunters over, beats the hoods up, forces them first to eat their food and admit they like it, then to pay their bill and leave, then returns to his own table and resumes dinner calmly. This is laid out straight for us when he is introduced to us, having dinner at a restaurant with his friend Bobby and Bobby’s pregnant wife. The quintessinal American super-soldier, McCoy is clean cut (figuratively speaking anyway that beard would get him thrown out of the real army pretty quick), patriotic, knows martial arts, and hates seeing the little guy get stomped on. McCoy has been promoted to colonel and now leads the Delta Force himself, instead of just being second in command. One could argue that after Cota bites it the traitor is no longer a threat, so who cares, but still, it just feels weird for them to drop the issue after it plays such a huge role in why the villain is one step ahead throughout the first act. But although Cota discovers and deals with his own spy problem, the American traitor is never revealed and in fact is just sort of forgotten about midway through. This is mirrored by the fact Cota’s organization has its own turncoat who is, in turn, feeding info to our heroes. It is mentioned numerous times that there is a traitor in the DEA who keeps selling his buddies out to the bad guys. Don’t get me wrong, they kick ass and get the job done, but the film’s smaller budget is very evident in the title fighting force’s depiction. Instead our boys in black are limited to half a dozen men and forced to make due with one lousy helicopter. Gone are the armies of motorcycles, jeeps and all-terrain dune buggy things with the blue-filtered headlights. And where they are used they’re toned down, number-wise. ![]() The movie also just doesn’t feature enough of the Delta Force themselves. The following year’s Toy Soldiers, though, would just come right out and say its villainous terrorist types were Colombian. Something about the United States’ southern neighbors really made American directors leery of depicting real South American countries badly. Apparently at one point the story was going to be set in Colombia, but then they decided for whatever reason to follow the example of other, earlier action films set in South America (Predator and Licence to Kill come to mind) and use a fictional one. This is strange, as the first film had no qualms about using Lebanon. Instead most of the action takes place in a made-up country called San Carlos. It’s called “The Colombian Connection,” but Colombia is never seen or mentioned. Plenty of shootouts, fistfights, and one really great chase sequence involving an armored limousine driving offroad, plus Chuck Norris’ usual level of badassery, make Delta Force 2 a worthy sequel to the original film. It’s an action movie starring Chuck Norris.
