Remo and Chiun battle a super-computer to derail an Armageddon express.
Well, maybe the sky wasn't falling-but something was falling from the sky. Something that stunned America's scientists, stupefied America's security forces, and sent the new U.S. President miles underground to dodge the hellish hailstorm of unidentified falling objects.
What was this infernal armada of UFO's? And who could stop it as it shattered one city after another? The only answer in America's arsenal was Remo and Chiun-as they shot into action against a mad dictator who stopped at nothing and a smart computer than knew all the answers..including the secret of how to outwit the wise and wily Chiun and destroy the indestructible Destroyer.
The U.S. is being bombarded by steam engines, and the puns are getting bad. Let's see - The Armageddon Express, engines launched by a "rail" gun - and there's more. It's the Middle East again, with another nutty despot out for revenge.
There's the General who's more crook than general. And behind it all, is profit. Nothing but profit. That means - Friend. Yep - he's here again, and this time he takes over Smith's computer - and the assignments of Remo and Chiun!
The satire is unrelenting! A hallmark of the series, everyone gets it here. The military, the middle east baddies, the president - even Smith!
And of course in the end, the physical threat is destroyed, but the electronic one - Friend - lives on.
Makes me wonder what would happen if Friend and Mr. Gordons would team up!
