How could anyone not like this film?, 27 May 2003
10/10
Author: Paul Kennedy (craze5926@netzero.net) from Santa Monica, CA.

This is another great film courtesy of the 80's. This was actually the first film I rented when my parents got the family our first BETA MAX. It may be cheesey, but it has high entertainment value (something that is uncommon among todays films). Other entertaining films of the 80's include Steel Dawn (Patrick Swayze at his peak), Red Dawn, Eliminators, Gymkata and MetalStorm: The Destruction of Jared-Syn (one of the last 3-D films). Give it a try!!
