Beth C I first saw this movie when I was 16 the year it came out in 1986 and I still LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!! It may not be some heavy duty Mega movie with a intricate story line but that's what makes it soooooo FANTASTIC!! It's a good movie that captures the spirit of the 80's and something you don't have to think about too much it's just what it is a love story with some great action thrown in and a not too shabby soundtrack!!!!! It will always be one of my favorite movies!!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/31/24 Full Review David W Objectively speaking it's definitely not a classic but yet somehow to me it is. It's a late night belter of a guilty pleasure which is best enjoyed with a good few beers and a kebab. The Tim Feehan main title tune - Where's the Fire? - has long been a favourite of mine. In fact the whole, now wonderfully retro 80's, soundtrack is well worth a listen. There's also a young Sherilyn Fenn who is jaw droppingly gorgeous and a host of young stars like Nick Casavettes, Randy Quaid and Charlie Sheen but none of them will count this as being amonst their best work. Don't ask why because I can't justify why but for some inexplicable reason I just adore this very 80's movie. Maybe it's nothing more than association as it's joyful simplicity evokes the happy time in my life when I first watched it. I'm not entirely sure but either way, watching it or listening to the soundtrack always puts a big old smile on my face and what more do you want from a movie than that? Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/22/24 Full Review mark g Quite terrible in every aspect, EXCEPT, you do get to see a young Sherilyn Fenn, who might be the most attractive female ever. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Bobby C This movie is so much fun! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/24 Full Review Dave C It's a typical 80's movie, with action and an element of fantasy that is trying to be Sci-Fi but fails miserably. It's an extremely shallow, basic movie, with little depth, requiring limited acting, and driven by (boom boom) car chases and ridiculous crashes that all have too many similarities to make them appealing or thrilling. As for the directing and script, you may as well have hired a team of monkeys… Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/23 Full Review MrDontCare Such a fantastic movie. If you love cars, sprinkled with a pinch of SCIFI, you love this movie. Such a 80s underrated film. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
