Breaking Point review: a better than average violent film

The film stars Bo Svenson as Michael McBain with Robert Culp and John Colicos in key roles. Filmed largely in Philadelphia with Toronto sequences, the Canadian production follows a karate instructor who testifies against the Mafia and seeks vengeance while his family goes into witness protection. The Eastown 1 and Twin West drive-in showings carry an R rating for violence and language.
