Like Hasselhoff or not the film is a classic comic story brought into a movie that seems to be for a potential weekly series that never got picked up. As someone who has read the comics I was entertained, it is great to see Fury vs Hydra instead of the typical Batman-Joker, SpiderMan-Goblin, Superman-Luthor that have been done.
If they made this film today with all the effects you can easily add now it would be pretty good. As it is old technology you have to forgive that.
As far as the price I think that is based on supply & demand. I can't imagine they pressed more than 10K of these if that many so if you need to own a copy....
I say watch it once and you will be all set.
They need to do a Fury film with Jackson since Marvel made him the Movie version

Compared to the first early Marvel movies,Captain America,The Punisher, and The Fantastic Four(which I did not see but I heard mixed things), Nick Fury was really good. First of all, Hassellhoff actually looks and acts like Nick Fury and the plot was pretty good for its time. Arguably, the villians could have been better, however it was good movie. Look at the horrible Punisher(Ugh!)then look at the Captain America( double ugh!) and you will definitely appreciate Nick Fury.

This little TV movie is a real guilty pleasure of mine. I've always loved Nick Fury, whether he was a Howling Commando or an agent of SHIELD. And though this movie is not a classic adaptation of Kirby or Steranko's Fury...it does a pretty good job of keeping up with the Marvel Comics series.

Two gripes: Would've loved to see the REAL Hydra outfits. And Baron Strucker was disappointingly portrayed.

But for 90 minutes of mindless comic book fun, this can't be beat.

Everybody has expections when a movie is made of a hero,but i thought this was cool to see. The actual 1st vision on live action FURY!. Check it out. :)

Remember when you watch this, it was done many years before digitalizing, and it is a story of comic book people. It is not real.
We enjoyed it thoroughly. Very creative and fun.

You people that are selling this dvd for $20 or more are crazy & or greedy! what the hell makes you think this is worth any more than $10!! get a clue!! it's over 10 years old.

Wow, just wow. I saw this online yesterday and was blown away...by how bad it is. How the writer(David S. Goyer) of Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and Blade wrote this junk is beyond the realm of human comprehension. The biggest mistake is having David Hasselhoff playing the cigar-chomping, retort-flicking superhero. Anybody with sense knows that Kurt Russell would have been a shoe-in for Nick Fury.

The story: Andrea Von Strucker(Sandra Hess) plans to release a poisonous gas into Manhattan. Nick Fury with the help of his partner/former girlfriend Countessa Valentina(Lisa Rinna) are out to stop her.


Hasselhoff playing Fury is the least of the movies' problems. The dialogue is almost on par with Batman and Robin. I find it hard to believe that the guy who wrote Batman Begins can write such jewels as: "I'll get the blood from that viper even if I have to suck it out of her neck myself", "pop sicko, get it? Pop sicko" and How's your needlepoint".
Sandra Hess wins the ham of the year award hands down for the cheesiest supervillian in superhero movie history next to Uma Thurman and Arnold Schwarzenegger in Batman and Robin. The maniacal laughter is acceptable in cartoons but in a movie its downright corny.
Plot holes and continuity errors run amok. One hole is that Fury is kissed by Andrea earlier in the movie and is poisoned by this kiss yet he is still able to fight like a tank throughout the movie.

What more can I say? If you like your superhero movies extra-cheesy with mold on top, you will have a ball with this one but if you expect it to be great than expect to be disappointed. One of the corniest superhero movies next to Captain America point blank period.
