This movie perfectly captures the spirit of the eighties. The absence of great action scenes also didn’t matter, by that I mean where helicopters are constantly seen from a distance. The editors and cameramen still managed to create fantastic action scenes that hold up even in today's era. And a proper hero to boot. ()
