Director: Brian Trenchard-Smith

Starring: John Hargreaves, Grant Page, Margaret Gerard

Two best friends, Vietnam War veterans-turned-stuntmen, are sent as spies to the Philippines on a top secret mission for the Australian government.

Real-life stuntmen John Hargreaves and Grant Page star as stuntmen Rod and Steve. I’ll admit, the acting is nothing to write home about, but I enjoyed the chemistry between the actors.

John and Grant also allow for plenty of eye candy with their sexy, lean bodies and hairy chests. The film finds every excuse to show off their great physiques…and I’m certainly not complaining!

Due to the humorist nature of the film, nothing here is to be taken seriously. The stuntmen are hired for a dangerous mission, but these men are so out of their league that the mission is not believable. Regardless, the film is a lot of fun, and there’s plenty of great action sequences. As can be expected, the stunts are very good, too. I actually had a wonderful time with ‘DeathCheaters’! It’s a guilty pleasure!!

Would I watch it again? Yes.
