An absolute waste of money
Dynamixor
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Helllins
It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

I have always seen this movie advertised while watching other movies, and I have always been curious about it. So I ordered it online and watched it on memorial day. And I have to say that it was pretty good. One man's justice is about a man who seeks revenge for the murders of his wife and little girl, but this is not your ordinary hero, he is an army colonel who has fighting moves that seem more real then your average karate moves. The fighting in this movie seemed more real to me then other fighting movies, I felt it was actual hand to hand combat. The story is good, a man takes matters into his own hands and dishes out some but kicking action, along the way he discovers that a shady Cop is behind all of his troubles.I enjoyed watching this movie, but I'm surprised at how people give this low ratings.it was made back in the 90's and what they made was pretty good the actors in it do a great job and Brian Bosworth hit's it off as the main hero. I have never heard of Brian Bosworth before and this is the first movie I have seen him in, and he did an excellent job. The villain was pretty good Bruce Payne does great job as a dark cop. This movie gets you excited with all the action, but the reason I give it a 9 is because I felt it should have had more action, more fighting. Because it was awesome. You also feel for the man as he loses his family, and you cheer him on as he kicks butt and brings justice. One Man's Justice is a great movie, watch it and if your an action buff like I am you will like it.9/10 for One Man's Justice

One Man's Justice is actually four stories, all of which are in conflict with one another. First, there's the story of a corrupt FBI agent. Then there's the story of an FBI agent who's so obsessed with taking down a drug lord he's willing to commit murder. The one FBI agent happens also to be the other FBI agent, so already we're in a muddle. Then of course we have to give our star, Brian Bosworth, something to do, so we get a third story about a vet who's out for revenge for the murder of his family. But wait, we haven't touched all the sensitivity bases yet, we gotta have a kid in there somewhere, so we get a fourth story about a 12 year old boy who's thinking about turning gangsta and just needs a role model - like Bosworth (?!) - to set him straight.There are all sorts of silly flaws throughout the film - towards the end, the hero chases the villain up a flight of stairs but somehow winds up on the roof of a different building from that of the villain - and one could have some fun discussing these. But with plot elements as confusing as we have here, who really cares? And although most of the action scenes are fairly good (with the exception of the lamest car/bike chase I've ever seen), since we don't really know what's going on or why we should care, even these are wasted.Save yourself the trouble of taking this out of the DVD player - don't bother putting it in.

The film started out with a boot camp situation with a drill instructor breaking in his new company of Army enlistments. All of a sudden there is a horror show going on in a local convenient store, where things start being turned into Swiss Cheese and lots of tomato juice. The Army instructor is Brian Bosworth,(John North),"Mach 2",'01,who winds up in a hospital for a few weeks and when he gets outside the door, all hell breaks loose. In this picture there is a very young boy who deals with drugs and is very street smart, which in today's society is being used all the time. These kids are under age and cannot be given hard sentences, so they do the dirty work of the Older Boys. Bruce Payne,(Karl Savak),"Hellborn",'03 gives an outstanding performance as an FBI agent who seems to like evil more than good. This is an entertaining film, but there is nothing you will remember about this film after an hour goes bye~! This film was called two names: "One Man's Justice" and "One Tough Bastard", whatever you prefer

I saw this movie on HBO about a year and a half ago, and I absolutely loved it. I've never heard of Brian Bosworth, who seems to be the typical American action movie star (he's better than Jeff Speakman by far, though). The throwaway plot in this film deals with the not-so-accidental death of North's wife and child at the hands of a couple of street hoods working for a Disney Dollars counterfeiter or an herbal tea smuggler or something. Johnny sets off in pursuit of the dudes and is led to Karl Savak (Bruce Payne from Passenger 57), the aforementioned bad guy.There are some very well-done fight scenes here, and the story actually develops (somewhat) as North tries to lure his nemesis out of the woodwork by posing as another criminal, and is eventually offered a chance by Savak to avenge his family's death. The dialogue is laughable at points, mainly Bosworth's lines, but for the most part this movie is well-paced. Payne is right at home as the villain, and the showdown at the end is incredible. The supporting cast did well with what they had, also.If you find this one at the bottom of a sales bin, you would do well to pick it up. Hell, I'll buy it from you. No rental store around Chicago has this film.
