Loosely based on a true incident, this tale follows a lonely Vietnam vet who bravely takes on two menacing hoods on a bus. When his heroics are caught on video, Frank sees his life transformed -- but not for very long.
Frank Vega is a war vet who had trouble making it after returning home from the war. On a bus into the city, be stops two dudes from harassing and nearly attacking an elderly man. The fight is recorded and becomes a viral hit online. He becomes a minor celebrity and a symbol of citizens standing up for themselves. After his best friend, Klondike is killed and the police show disinterest in his case, Frank takes to the streets in an attempt to gain revenge and closure.
Eventually, the bad guys pay him a visit, looking for a flash drive that Klondike had stolen from them. After dispatching them, he continues his search, finds one of the guys responsible and figures out that the contents of the usb and the death of his friend are related. Fighting his way up the food chain, he steps toe to toe with the man responsible, who just happens to be Roc the Garbageman, aka Charles S. Dutton.
Frank is tortured, but being Bad Ass, he laughs it off, gets free and ends up in a high speed bus chase. He makes it home just in time to give Roc a solid ass whoopin'. And just when I didn't think this film could get any better, they fucked around and included the "call the amberlamps" line.
Action, Comedy, and even a little Titty. Bad Ass is Bad Ass and it hits all of its comedic notes. Epic Beard Man fucks people up in this film. At one point, they even do the slow motion Sherlock Holmes ass whoppin' thing. Plus few scenes are as funny as a man suiting up and putting on a "I Am A Motherfucker" shirt.
The fight that started it all:
Out of Ten? 7 + Roc = 8
Violence? Yes
Explosions? Yes
Nudity? Yes
