The whole decade of the '80s was excessive, cheesy, and over the top. Most of the reviews I see on here are either young or forgetful. The same people that love Scarface (which is a terrible movie). Let's be honest it's got the same feel and bad acting as a sex ed video in health class. I can name many many more. It wasn't perfect but it was fun. And fun is the reason you watch. Be pretentious on how underground music is better. While I'm here remember the Cold War? Russia was the direct threat. I can name 50 movies in the 80's that address that circumstance.
