Beware of all-star casts participating in runaway productions (shooting all over the world because it's cheaper than paying American union crews). These films are usually unsatisfactory, and JAGUAR LIVES! is no exception. Heavyweight karate champ Joe Lewis (no, not the boxer) hacks his way around the world in an effort to end the reign of terror perpetrated by an international drug cartel. The cameos by Pleasence (as a South American dictator, no less, which is almost as bad as casting him as the President of the United States in ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK), Lee, and Huston are embarrassing. Unfortunately, Strode, a fine actor who deserved more than he got from Hollywood in the 1970s, is totally wasted. leave a comment
