Reviews

‘Only the hardest of hearts could fail to enjoy the great 80s action classic…with uproarious explosions, deafening shootouts and smart-alec tag lines following the bad guys getting shot.’ 
★★★★★
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

‘The very pinnacle of the ’80s action movie, and if it’s not the greatest action movie ever made, then it’s damn close.’
★★★★★
Andrew Collins, Empire Magazine
