Review of Nighthawks (1981) by Dave J — 17 Apr 2010
WOW what a film!!!! Stallone is incredible in this very underatted gritty gem and Billy Dee Williams is very good as his partner but the real star is Rutger Hauer as the cold blooded terrorist who is both menacing and charismatic.
The chase scene is one of the best put in film and the locations are fantastic from london, paris and the main setting new york.
What stops this getting 5 stars is that the disco music score is very outdated and the last 10minutes seem a little rushed but overall a great film with strong performances that is gripping from start to finish.
