Review of Streets of Fire (1984) by Patrick S — 15 Sep 2008
I wanted to like this more than I did cause how many movies can basically be classified as an action-musical with the hyper-reality of a comic book movie.
But I can't for one reason...Walter Hill. He doesn't have the energy or tact required for a full-on blast to make a truly great comic-book-esque movie. That was the same reason why The Warriors failed. Why do you think 48 Hours is his best movie? Because it was grounded in reality, that's why!
