McBain (1991) Christopher Walken | Former Vietnam War Lieutenant Joins Revolution To Overthrow Dictator| Full Movie

McBain (1991)

McBain is a 1991 American action war film written and directed by James Glickenhaus, and starring Christopher Walken as the title character, alongside Michael Ironside and María Conchita Alonso.

Plot

Santos (Chick Vennera) attempts to lead a people’s revolt in Colombia to overthrow the Presidente. When his revolt fails and he is killed, his sister Christina (María Conchita Alonso) goes to New York to find McBain (Christopher Walken), a lieutenant Santos rescued during the Vietnam War. McBain agrees to help, recruits his old war buddies, raises some cash by killing a few drug dealers, then leads an attack to topple the Colombian President (Victor Argo).

Production

The film was announced in May 1990, under its original title McBain’s Seven. In September of that year, it was announced that filming would begin shooting on a sixty-two day schedule under its shortened title McBain. While the film received offers from several major studios for distribution, production company Shapiro-Glickenhaus Entertainment ultimately decided to release the film themselves committing an estimated $8-$10 million for promotion and the manufacture of 1200 film prints as selling distribution rights would’ve meant relinquishing the home video rights
