The Hulk and Little Else.

Hulk Hogan gives the big screen another shot in this terrible little film that was thrown together in a pinch for some quick revenue. The former wrestling super-star decides to take a job as a bodyguard to protect an important man's young children. It seems that the man is being threatened because of a top-secret microchip that some unknown person wants. The typical insanity takes place in this mess that avoids the turkey due to Hogan's screen charisma and nothing else. 2 stars out of 5.
