Irresistible Force (film)

Irresistible Force is a 1993 American thriller TV movie starring Stacy Keach and Cynthia Rothrock as a pair of police officers.

[1] A police sergeant (Keach) who is trying to avoid any trouble before his upcoming retirement receives an enthusiastic young female agent (Rothrock) as a new partner.

Stacy Keach plays an old cop who battles a group of Die Hard-style neo-supremacist baddies occupying a high-tech shopping mall.

African-American director Kevin Hooks (Passenger 57, 1992) expertly throws in every conceivable cliché, right down to a mismatching buddy-cop for Keach.

Her persona is an unsettling mixture of classically feminine traits (such as a chic martial arts wardrobe) with an unstoppably masculine aggro.
