Eating pizza with scissors. The Cobra style.
This movie is so bad that you have to love it, from the opening scene in the super market, to the motorcycle/car chase at the end of the movie. This movie has got it all. Sly is the archetype of a stale, tough on the outside, warm on the inside hero. The one liners are sick. For instance when the super market is threatened to be blown to pieces Sly says, "Go ahead, I don't shop here."

As for Brigitte Nielsen, what a wonderful little (or tall) actress she is. I especially like the part in the parking garage, where she is fighting for her life. I found it all so believable. I really think she should have gotten an Oscar in 1986 for this movie. Why not? Judi Dench received an academy award for Shakespeare in Love and she was only in it for five minutes. Here we have eighty-seven minutes of sheer genius.

Last but not least, I love the Bounty Hunter from the X-Files as the lead villain. What a wonderful job he did, because he had to really work outside his acting realm to be in this film. I also loved the Bounty Hunter's minions, all very upset blue-collar workers who wanted to be loved. So they joined a serial killer cult!! I love this movie! I love the Zombie Squad! I love the 80's music in this movie! Why can't Cobra just come over my house and have some Famous Amos cookies with me?!


Psycho?
A "get what you pay for" Dirty Harry clone in which Sly tosses out a few too many tough guy one-liners, basically. Perhaps I'm over-analyzing the thing, but watch closely as buttoned-down Andrew Robinson, best known for his "Scorpio" serial sniper in Clint's original vigilante cop hit referenced above, has a moment when, after being accosted by Sly's Cobretti, snarls, "HE'S the psycho!!" A clever intentional line? who knows? lol

One of the worst movies I ever seen
I didn't even get through half the movie before I turned it off. It was boring, poor quality, cheesy, and the acting sucked. I was so fustrated with the movie, I sold it on ebay the next day. I am a HUGE Stallone fan and I couldn't believe this movie was such a disapointment.
