NIGHTHAWKS(1981)
This goes back to Jackie's roots where he played in serious(?)
movies, albeit cheesy!!! In this he plays a police inspector
who feels he is responsible for the deaths of his team when they
get into a firefight with a deranged gang of theives! He gets a
second chance when he is assigned a new partner who's gunhoe to
go after the bad guys!! Jackie's girlfriend looks to be about 25
years younger than him!! This is incredibly dark!! C+
From IMDb.com:
The movie has quite the strong beginning(s). First it establishes
the two main character and then our main bad guy. And he is as
evil as they come. Even the guys who are supposed to back him
are like "Yo Dude, that was too much". Well I'm paraphrasing
of course, but that is what it boils down to.
The thriller also boils down to many character flaws or rather
inconsistencies. Now you may mind about them or you may be too
invested in the story to care or generally don't mind them, as
long as the movie is told in a decent fashion. And that it is.
There are better thrillers, but this still has an 80s flair to
it, that some will cherish more than others - kosmasp
