Operation Hit Squad is one of those lesser-known gems from the late '80s that delivers a solid dose of action and suspense. The plot revolves around a group of wealthy women who find themselves at the mercy of terrorists, and it’s up to a team of mercenaries to rescue them. The pacing keeps you on your toes—no real lulls, just a relentless push towards the climax. You’ve got practical effects that add a gritty feel to the whole thing, and while the performances aren’t Oscar-worthy, they fit the tone perfectly. There's this palpable sense of camaraderie among the mercenaries that gives the film a distinct edge. It’s a nice slice of the era’s action cinema, capturing that raw energy quite effectively.
