Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

hwg1957-102-265704 There seems to be a lot of confusion between this film from 1976 and another made later in 1987 as both films get called 'The Zebra Force' or 'Code Name-Zebra'. On IMDb itself the wrong poster is given to this film. Both films were directed by Joe Tornatore. The 1987 film is the sequel to the 1976 film with the character Carmine Longo appearing in both. The version I saw called itself 'Code Name-Zebra'.This film is about war veterans donning disguises and taking on the Mafia and breaking up their operations, mainly by killing people. The mob boss with an impressive mustache brings in an enforcer from Detroit, Carmine Longo with an even more impressive mustache, to deal with the situation. So there is talk followed by action followed by talk etc. You could probably write the script yourself though the final scene did surprise me. The film stock is grainy and the action uses slow motion too much and the acting itself is stilted and amateur but for some reason I found it rather charming. A good print in the original format would be worth seeing even if only to enjoy/cringe at those 1970's fashions.

Cristi_Ciopron When I was a kid, the genre to which CNZ belongs was called 'commando' or 'superaction—violence'. And it might prove a bit more interesting to discuss genres than to discuss this one movie. Yet a word or two have to be said, as this is Robert Z'Dar's first role.Zdarsky, 34 yrs in his first movie performance, was just embarking on a career of bizarre and unique Z features; you should see at least another 7 of his movies.He was a Palance for the '80s Z movies. I can confess, with a straight face, being something of a Zdarsky _completist. And if u ain't, u ain't. Using electronic music, the '80s thrillers could be quite suspenseful; and Zdarsky was a part of that mind—bending suspense.CODE NAME ZEBRA, a silly action movie or _actioner, like you have seen so many if you grew up in the '80s, like you should have, might have been a flick for the guys but is on the other hand an almost unique and perhaps even deliberate specimen of nasty acting coming both from the Mafiosi (Carmine, Charlie and the others) and the quasi—vigilantes; some men who fought in Vietnam now join together to form a band of almost vigilantes.As you wouldn't have believed, they're ingeniously disguised, by wearing amazingly efficient masks, as Afro—American citizens; but then again, the movie's insulting to the army by the atmosphere of idiocy that identifies the reunions of these former soldiers.CNZ is poor in action, a couple of scenes with derisory effects; most of the movie is people sitting, talking, planning, doing grimaces, but I would lie if I wouldn't admit that I have watched the whole movie avidly. Too much of a '80s _actioners fan.

shark-43 This film was a nice surprise - we were gathering DVDs for our usual bad cinema night and I rented a DVD that had Frank Sinatra, Jr. and one of Robert Mitchum's offspring in it as commandos or whatnot but even though the disc read CODE NAME: ZEBRA and had the same director - the movie ZEBRA FORCE came on - obviously NOT filmed in 1984 like CODE NAME but looking so 70's and grainy and waaaay low budget but get this - the plot actually has clever things in it and a nice twist at the end. The acting goes from hilariously bad (we called two actors Gestures & Point cuz that is what these two hacks did with every line reading - one would gesture and the other would point) to a couple of good performances. The violence and action was either staged horribly or shockingly good. In fact there is one stunt where a guy goes out a high window and he falls, lands on his back in a swimming pool - impressive and dangerous. Lots of great 70's "jive" dialogue and mobsters v.s. black activists v.s. viet nam vets (and yes, one of the crazed vet leaders is horribly scarred and crazy). We enjoyed mocking the film's faults and enjoying many of it's merits. ZEBRA ROCKS!!!

emm Even though this late-night action flick has aged, it still has what many of today's multi-budget movies are lacking in: ORIGINALITY! Don't expect good guy heroes in "The Zebra Force" because this definitely is not your typical action film. Instead, this is a first-person anti-hero show that knows no limits. Watching the soldiers in black masks terrorize the innocent is rather deteriorating, but that's part of the fun. Overall, the real show stealers are the gang's leader with a deformed face who communicates via mini walkie-talkies, plus an unexpected finale. If you can live with obscure '70s trashies like this one, then I can't blame you for that!
