Review of Over the Top (1987) by Walter D — 03 Jul 2018

Over the Top was made when Sly Stallone was the top dog in town which meant he could have any film made he wanted. Over the Top is probably the result of Sly's ego dictating the terms. This isn't a bad movie but just an alright one about a trucker(played by Sly) who wishes to get close to his kid- who sort of doesn't like him, as they go about on a road trip of sorts.

There are some nice scenery and lets be honest- Stallone has that face, or perhaps its his eyes- which make you wanna root for him, and feel sorry for him. This is a decent film to watch, especially if you wanna go through Stallone's filmography but it isn't a great Stallone movie.
