Brace yourself for Nick Fury's action-packed adventure! Baywatch icon David Hasselhoff stars as the hard-boiled, cigar-chomping director of S.H.I.E.L.D. (Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement, and Logistics Division), an ultrasecret counterterrorism strike force. Fury is called upon when his latest nemesis, the sexy, sinister Viper hatches a plan to annihilate all of Manhattan. Armed with a stockpile of high-tech weapons, Fury is the city's only hope in the full-length debut of this Marvel Comics hero!

Let's try to remember a time when Marvel wasn't making blockbuster hits with their catalog of characters. Not so long ago we were treated to gems like Captain America and Howard the Duck. Then you have David Hasselhoff as Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. This was a made for TV movie, probably a backdoor pilot for what could have become a TV series. There's a good reason it did not. The plot is pretty standard comic book movie fare, evil organization intends to wipe out Manhattan with poison gas, it's the acting, or rather over-acting of the Hoff that hurts this. It's not helped by Sandra Hess' villain, the awkward action or the script's real lack of peril for the leads. Thankfully, the pacing keeps the film moving and it's engaging enough to keep you entertained. Ultimately, while this is not a successful effort, it's far from the worst entry in the Marvel catalog of films. For a fan of Fury, it's nice to see a live action version that pre-dates Sam Jackson, and to see a helicarrier and L.M.D and all the trappings of S.H.I.E.L.D even on the small screen. For a comic movie collector it's a must have. This wasn't a wide release (Best Buy exclusive) and was hard to come by then, even harder to own now.

This is a, relatively, cheaply made overacted 'bad movie' - however it actually attempts to bring the Nick Fury of the 70s and 80s spy-fi comics to life. The Hoff overacts as Fury in a manner that is actually consistent with this era. It is not a 'Good' movie by the conventional standards but as a bit of giggle it is fine. Don't take it too seriously and you might enjoy it. If you like the Matt Salinger or Reb Brown Cpt America movies you should enjoy this.

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.

Under appreciated but not bad if you want Nick Fury & Shield
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. Read more
