No masterpiece, but...


I've seen a lot worse. There are a few good laughs to be had - I particularly liked Estelle Getty washing Sly's gun in the sink.

And you gotta give it a point for driving the Peterbilt through the airplane propellor. THAT was cool.

I used to enjoy that flick when I was a kid, it was cool to see Sofia from The Golden Girls interact with Sly.

Well, the Jerk Store called, and they're running out of you.

It's hard to look at the rating and say how good the movie is relative to others, because there's a rating inflation going on IMDB (and recent TV-series always tend to be rated crazily high). I.e. a 4.0 rating for a 1992 movie may be comparable to a 6.0 nowadays...

I think this movie is pretty bad, but as a fan of Stallone, it was funny to see him in what was a sort of parody of cop movies from that era. I found Estelle Getty to be a bit annoying (she looked much older than her part, amongst other things), although some of the things she did, my mom would do (like cleaning the gun in the sink).

I give this movie a 4.0/10 nonetheless. It might just be Stallone's worst; I haven't seen Rhinestone yet. Maybe I would have given it a slightly better rating 10 years ago.

No, Rhinestone is the worst. If there's one thing Sly should NOT do, it's sing.

i.e.: "Budweiser you created a monstah / and they call me - Drinkenstein!"



"You may have come on no bicycle, but that does not say that you know everything."

I agree, no idea why this is rated 4/10, deserves at the very least a 5.2/10 average... I gave it a 6/10 myself

FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!

. . . but it is a masturbate. This turd ranks below Oscar and Rhinestone. Do you REALLY think Estelle Ghetty would squeeze out a Stallone? A Bruce Willis, MAYBE, but not a Stallone. No man who can father a Stallone wound give her a creampie.
