Should you see it? Sure.
The president's daughter is kidnapped and held for ransom in Beverly Hills ("Beverly Hills" in a title almost guarantees awfulness) and it's up to a retired Green Beret to rescue her - the Secret Service apparently has better things to do. And of course, the terrorist just happens to have a personal connection to the Green Beret (played by Frank Stallone). No cliche is missed. There's plenty of product placement. The tone shifts abruptly, being quite serious at the start and bloody at the end, but seems to be almost a parody of the genre in the middle; perhaps the director realized after shooting some of the film to try to change the film. Cameron Mitchell adds to his bad film resume with this as well.
