Arthur Jameson pulled some light war crimes during the Vietnam War. He’s out to cover his tracks and kill anyone who knows. This includes his partner, China Smith, and Sergent Frank DaVinci, who carried out some assassinations on his behalf.

Frank is getting married to Lupe.

China is running late because his girlfriend, Colette, is masturbating in the bath. They get ready, but China wants to fuck before they go to the wedding. They run to the car, but Colette runs back in. The car explodes, killing China.

As Frank and Lupe leave the service, gunmen shoot Frank and Lupe, as well as several innocent bystanders. Frank survives and goes to Vegas.

Colette takes out some would-be assassins and goes into hiding.

Three months later, Colette finds Frank in Vegas. She reveals she was working with China and that she’s a CIA agent. And that Arthur Jameson is her boss.

This movie is a sequel to DaVinci’s War — no, I haven’t seen it. No, I won’t watch it. Joey Travolta, the older brother of John Travolta, wrote, produced, and co-starred in this project with Anna Nicole Smith. 

This movie was Smith’s first starring role. She’d do two more movies with PM Entertainment, including the infamous Skyscraper.

I had a tough time following this movie. I paused and rewinded several scenes to catch names.

The movie has some pretty stellar car stunts and explosions. There’s an incredible scene where Anna Nicole Smith drives a stolen police car backward, shooting at some dudes, pulls a 180, throws a bomb out the window, and drives through a helicopter, causing it to explode.

This movie sucks, but it’s hilarious.
