This movie is about a boy who is kidnapped by this father and returned to his Arab kingdom where his father claims the boy will be the new heir to the tribe. I have watched a lot of "B" movies before, and can usually find some redeeming value in them, but this movie, I had to stop after 45 minutes or so. The performances were so awful, and yet some reviewers said it was the best performance of each actor's career. I don't understand that at all. I am sad that Eliott Gould would have given such a terrible performance. I expect it from Rutger Hauer. He's done some stinkers over the years, and some good films. I thought Gould was better than that. Actually, it is like each actor is reading their lines from a teleprompter as if each were told at the outset, "read your lines in the most monotone voice possible". Rutger Hauer is kidnapped at gunpoint, beaten, taken before the child's mother, and immediately agrees to find the kid. I really feel like I wasted part of my life on this movie and I deeply regret it. It sucks!!!!!

Late night at the drug store picking up ice & vodka,i notice a rack of discount DVDs. Rite in front i find a Collector's edition, 4 hrs. Rutger Hauer action pack for $3.99. My evening is looking up! First up, Beyond Justice, A fantastic story of international intrigue, moral responsibility, as a hansom mercenary (Rutger Hauer) is hired by a beautiful and rich divorce (Carrol Alt) to rescue her kidnapped son from his father who has taken him back to his homeland of Morraco. The X husband is clearly in a dilemma that would test the limits of any well intending man. His father is a Emir of a nomadic tribe in Morraco and has threatened to kill his X wife if he dose not deliver the boy to him to claim his prince hood.Needles to say as i was drinking my vodka and cleaning my guns, i enjoyed this movie very much. hope you like it to!

Man ! I give 1/10 for this movie. And I would prefer give 0. Can't believe kind of so bad "movie" exist. It's not "B series" but "Z series".Produce in 1992 ! Have no sense. Even the music of Ennio Morricone(Once Upon a Time in the West)is ridiculous for this "movie".It's evident after to watch this movie, that we can conclude actor/actress don't make movie just for fun but to win money to pay their "Kingdom", their Mercedes, their swimming pool, etc.Personally to be a good actor and make this kind of movie I would feel a lot depress. Oh my God !Even in my better bad nightmare I can't imagine a so bad movie. It's Fantastic that they are guys to find money to create this kind of "thing".Not only the movie is "null" but actor/actress are bad too. But can we be good in this kind of "movie".God give pardon to the producer of this "thing" cause he/they really don't know what they do !I must admit this "movie" is a very good soporific and if you have some trouble to sleep well I suggest you buy it. Be sure at 100% you will sleep before the end.

I never heard of this Italian made film...I caught on Long Islands ch.55 late night movie.. I was amazed.. its a fascinating adventure, beautifully photographed and well acted.. Sustained my interest even at this 2am viewing! It is somewhat cliched, and stereotypic, but an exciting tale well told.. In view of our present world conflict, it gives some insight into the tribal nomadic existences of the various cults that still exist !!, and the mores and values which still persist. Worth seeing...
