Drama from the Hammer

My review was written in July 1990 after watching the movie on RCA/Columbia video cassette.

Fred Wiliamson tips the balance from action to drama in the effective direct-to-video feature "The Kill Reflex", originally monikered "Soda Cracker".

Nicknamed Soda Cracker, Williamson is his usual relaxed cop in Chicago out to find his partner's killer. Though there is an action-packed finale involving baddie Bo Svenson (Williamson's regular screen teammate), film concentrates on the human drama of the cop's widow Julie Gregg adjusting as well as policewoman Maud Adams' relationship with the principals.

Vocalist Phyllis Hyman, previously on screen performing in Spike Lee's "School Daze", makes a strong impression as Svenson's girlfriend.
