Former CIA demolition expert Ray Quick lives in Miami, where he works as a hit man. Ray is coaxed out of retirement by May Munro to help her destroy the mafia that killed her family.
A totally dull story that thinks it can use various explosions to make it interesting, The Specialist is about as exciting as an episode of Dragnet, and about as well acted.
Isn't Sly getting a little long in the Rocky-tooth for this kind of role?

The Specialist is one of those films that forces the characters through torturous mazes of dialogue and action, to explain a plot that is so unlikely it's not worth the effort.
Ponderous, pretentious and acted with astounding indifference, The Specialist is a big fat bore with a couple of nice explosions. It's too somber to work as camp, and too tedious to work as anything else.
