After the success of The Karate Kid movies, Pat Morita carried on his shtick as the crafty old Japanese. The joke in this movie is that he does not know karate.
In Collision Course, Morita is a Japanese detective Fujitsuka Natsuo chasing a stolen prototype turbocharger. He comes to Detroit, motor city itself and teams up with renegade cop Tony Costas (Jay Leno) to go after potential suspect Madras and his goons. It seems they gunned down one of Costas former colleagues and he wants payback.
While in America, Natsuo faces casual racism, gets blamed for the US trade deficit and the decline of the American motor car industry.
This buddy cop action comedy was made in the same year as Letha Weapon 2 and basically it is no contest between the two movies.
Collision Course is a dismal lame movie, not funny and embarrassingly racist.
