This easily falls into the category of "so bad it's good" because of the stoic seriousness it takes itself but leaves lots of room for inadvertent camp appeal. It also embodies 80's violent cheese quite well with Stallone trying to be the ice cold apathetic cop. Plus he walks around with a totally impractical looking sidearm while he mows down raving punk/biker thugs. The best part is Stallone cutting pizza with scissors though.

It's not quite Commando, but still very entertaining during the best scenes. Call the Cobra.

Holds up well. Stallone has some cool oneliners in what is essentially part slasher with Nielsen as the final girl and the always creepy Thompson as the killer. The whole thing oozes 80s-ness and is pretty enjoyable.

His glasses are awesome!

The montage is the best part of the movie, other than that you have Stallone walking around in boots cutting pizzas with scissors and drinking beer in a supermarket with a deranged psycho.

80s semi-classic, that's still a ok watch.

mr cool

not very good, but then again, can you really expect much from stallone in a film of this genre? it is what it is. and i can say that i do remember being freaked out by that nutter with the huge knife in the parking garage.

Standard storyline that should be eased through with some cheesy '80s moments to help you get by. The action sequences are decent, but as impressive as the stunt-work is, it just feels like they are performing the stunts for the sake of how impressive they are without really flowing into the narrative of the action scenes. This may sound like a nit-pick, but there's not a whole lot else to analyse here; it's just a typical '80s action film.

Pig headed film exemplified in this one exchange between two air headed starring actors: (Paraphrased) "Why are there so many criminals in the world?" "We put em in jail and judges keep putting them out." Thank you Stallone, for your cultivated opinions on criminology. Guess we should light more of them on fire...
