Oh how easy it would be to only pump this full of those ubiquitous Chuck Norris mantra jokes. But I’ll refrain. Chuck’s filmography reads like a hall of fame of mullets. Yet, of all the neck-warmers Chuck brought to cinemas around the world, I must declare Sidekicks as his forgotten magnus mullet opus. It’s like discovering a long lost Leonardo da Vinci painting of Jesus rocking a poodle mullet while ascending to the heavens as his apostles below baptize the masses by styling their hair into Kentucky Waterfalls. That is Sidekicks for me, a film about idol adulation. Jonathan Brandis worships both the ass-kicking skills and hairstyle choices of one Chuck Norris (Chuck as himself, but really as Jesus in this allegory). Oh yes, they overcome all odds. And Chuck delivers his greatest on-screen mullet of all-time.
No pic on this one… let’s go to the videotape…
