Viewing Notes
Tonia’s pick. I think the thing that always holds my attention with most ‘80s action movies is that the action is managed as spectacle not for realism.
I know we watched this as part of a movie night back in Illinois, but I only remembered maybe half of the movie, interspersed throughout. So it was fun to revisit.
