I love to see the reactions on my kids' faces when they see these old 80's action films. They get more excited with these car chases than they do with the unrealistic CGI crap of today. Real cars, Real drivers, Real.
Yep, one would have to be crazy to drive an original 1950 Mercury to hell like that. I've always been a GM / Chevy fan but I still have a love for a lot of older classic cars regardless of the manufacturer. Movie companies use a lot of replica bodies anyway when they do a lot of smash n' crash scenes.
It was a Plymouth Volare, and judging by the exhaust sound, it wasn't exactly factory stock. Granted, the car used for the chase probably wasn't customized in the least, but we're obviously supposed to believe it was. V8, rear wheel drive, light weight....it definitely has the right initial ingredients.
Want another one? Tango and Cash. Armored weaponized SUV. GTA V definitely stole an idea from this one as well cuz the car in this movie, on the game its the Albany Hermes.
80s music, slow mo car jumps and crashes, and exagerrated physics and explosions... awesome! I don't really like the movie that much, but this scene is classic.
Freeze frame analysis I found a "Got Hemi" bumper sticker on the dirt bags car. The beauty of dubbing technology, I can make a smart cars sounds like a viper.
Driver guy says "he's crazy!"...What is crazy to this guy? He has rituals with axes and kills random people. And good thing Cobretti labeled the switch "Nitrous" so he doesn't forget what it's for.
It's a 1950, or thereabouts Mercury coupe. Obviously the roof has been chopped, and this was heavily customised. Finding one as a stocker these days is getting a lot harder
a lot of bad movies have great action sequences in them, i think. it's more do your stunt men step up, is the stunt coordinator good, and is the cinematographer good.
Awsome you shoud try to watch this chase video on mute while playing Another Girl Another Planet by Blink 182 because these two videos flow together like an oprah
They built four leadsled 1950 Mercurys for this movie, all with 454ci engines, three were destroyed during this chase. It was the best thing about the film. As I recall the last 20 minutes sucked.
This might be splitting hairs, but when Cobra sees the boat and realizes they'll crash there is nothing under the boat.... then when the car crashes there is a car under it that looks a lot like the one the badguys were driving.... is there an alternate version of this scene where the bad guys crash?
you are probably right.......but watch a classic stock drag race, the cars look like they are doing 40 when they are actually doing like 100, its weird, i think its because we are use to seeing 10 sec cars or stock cars doing 200mph
Wait a minute, at 2:27-2:32, how did they get from the bridge to the docks? maybe they probably cut some scenes out of the car chase scenes because, Imdb trivia Says that there was a 2 hour cut of the film.
I love this movie, but dude should have been stopped. Shitmobile couldn't of had no more than 80 on dash. And they got away and messed up the beautiful car.
7sec no bullet holes. 12sec car facing forward. 40sec fender disappeared. 49sec damage on white car, 50sec jump was bs, 56sec white car fixed itself bs. 1:20 how is busting through bars that easy at an angle. 1:30 traffic open middle lane bs. 1:35 see a RPM TACH. 1:35 no crash or boom but some rods instead. 1:39 white car fixed again. 2:39 no bullet holes white car. 2:40 boat no car then car under boat. This doesnt have shit on "Ronin" which was real as possible not fake like this.

I love the bad guy when Cobra drives up next to the car...
"He's crazy! He's crazy!" That coming from a complete pyschopath murderer
I read bad reviews, but Action Scenes Top notch!!!
Must own it.Vintage action of the 80´s.

I've never heard of this movie in my life, but I hunted down this car from a single image as a challenge. Crazy action scene!
Want another one? Tango and Cash. Armored weaponized SUV. GTA V definitely stole an idea from this one as well cuz the car in this movie, on the game its the Albany Hermes.
Im watching this while listening Autographs All I'm Gonna Take. Thats the 80s in a nutshell right there.
In the words of Sly Stallone himself, "Send a maniac to catch a maniac." LOL
Thats a wicked Mercury Stallones driving!!!
Who could have know that Santa Claus works a toll booth.
Cobra was defiantly a classic movie, awesome
80s music, slow mo car jumps and crashes, and exagerrated physics and explosions... awesome!
I don't really like the movie that much, but this scene is classic.
That car is awesome i love this movie hasnt seen it since i was like 5
still is one of the coolest, still is
Freeze frame analysis I found a "Got Hemi" bumper sticker on the dirt bags car. The beauty of dubbing technology, I can make a smart cars sounds like a viper.
its so good car! i like this film!
haha the best chase of the 80s ever with the most cheesiest ending dang it
00:10-:00:16 That's one hell of a gun
Driver guy says "he's crazy!"...What is crazy to this guy? He has rituals with axes and kills random people. And good thing Cobretti labeled the switch "Nitrous" so he doesn't forget what it's for.
Wow those old Cobras looked a lot different.
🤙✋من أجمل وأحلا وأروع افلام الزمن الجميل لي سلفستر
lol those guys that shot Cobretti actually thought he was the one that was going to run
That was sweet. Loved that movie.
pure inspiration.
I gotta buy this movie.Cobra is the shit
That smg is rare gun called Jatimatic made in Finland. Cool that such a nameless gun is in legendary movie like this ^^
It's a 1950, or thereabouts Mercury coupe. Obviously the roof has been chopped, and this was heavily customised. Finding one as a stocker these days is getting a lot harder
The reverse is the best

Gotta love this 1950 mercury monteray
Michael Bay :D
that's Long Beach California. the one i was raised in this city.
The dukes of hazzard will LOOOVE that street XD
@0:05 I wonder if that's even possible. The Mythbusters should try this!
with Stallone behind the wheel of a Hudson, anythings possible.
New form of bmx...kinda? CMX???
8,500 rpm....damn.
Awsome you shoud try to watch this chase video on mute while playing Another Girl Another Planet by Blink 182 because these two videos flow together like an oprah
great scene but, one question: did his ray-ban was stick on his ears??
They built four leadsled 1950 Mercurys for this movie, all with 454ci engines, three were destroyed during this chase.
It was the best thing about the film.
As I recall the last 20 minutes sucked.
Goodish Car Chase but they ripped off the car chase from "High Point"
1:17 is where you knew that Cobra was SUPER pissed at the shooters for fuckin up the Merc..
this car are beauty, best scene start at 2:10 finish at 2:29 totaled impossible continue, this car have 9 lives, shet only in hollywood
That Merc always lands on it's wheels.
This might be splitting hairs, but when Cobra sees the boat and realizes they'll crash there is nothing under the boat.... then when the car crashes there is a car under it that looks a lot like the one the badguys were driving.... is there an alternate version of this scene where the bad guys crash?
Someone found the surviving car from the movie and restored it. I saw on the web somewhere. It has a turbo 350 Chevy V8 and a 0-60 of 4 seconds.
Can somebody tell me what song plays during this scene? It's so awesome.
Cobra is much to epic for the epic meter to register..... 7 dislikes must be from the night slashers gang.
This movie did things to people...
@RazorUltraPro11 I believe it's a chopped 50s Merc
you are probably right.......but watch a classic stock drag race, the cars look like they are doing 40 when they are actually doing like 100, its weird, i think its because we are use to seeing 10 sec cars or stock cars doing 200mph
Not only was that car not going 110 mph it was going slower than it was before he turned the nitros on.
1950 Mercury with 350 Chevy V8.
My dream hot rod. Hey Sly can I take it after you destroyed it!!
The only that I like on this car case is the dolphin scene at 2:12
Cobra is angry for bulletholes in his car. He got 3 bullets they get 20 back.
Wait a minute, at 2:27-2:32, how did they get from the bridge to the docks? maybe they probably cut some scenes out of the car chase scenes because, Imdb trivia Says that there was a 2 hour cut of the film.
2:13 That looks like a fun thing to do
Yeah. It's got nine lives too.
2:45 anyone notice Night Slasher’s car rear ended up against the boat as Cobra’s car smashes into it?
what car is stallone driving? hudson super 6? or a merc?
what a waste of a good mercury
cool
HE BETREYED THE LAW!
@ 2:45... isn't that the dodge they were chasing stuck underneath the boat that merc plowed into?
240p we meet again! >:(
Speed it up baby.
simply ridiculous..
No wonder Mercs are soo expensive....Rambo FUKD them all up!
I hate to see an old car get lunched.
49 Mercury with a lot a stuff done to it.
They had nos back then
haha i remember this film, total '80s cheese fest
thats what i thought!! lol
@MikeFokkens its 360p
at 51 he folds the rightside of the aspen, then its flat again..............
MOPAR POWEEEEER! Even a POS lemon Chrysler is still better than a Ford lol!
Brian Uy Um Mercury is a ford product.
I love this movie, but dude should have been stopped. Shitmobile couldn't of had no more than 80 on dash. And they got away and messed up the beautiful car.
ok, the script was poor, but the action...the fuckin action is great!!!....loved stallone since i was born
0:12 he istn't going backwards
Thats cuz its a cat!! ;)
all i know is it's a Mercury lol id luv to have a replica of this mopar..
TuNerGuY -_- MOPAR?! Try again friend Mercury is a FoMoCo product line.
7sec no bullet holes. 12sec car facing forward. 40sec fender disappeared. 49sec damage on white car, 50sec jump was bs, 56sec white car fixed itself bs. 1:20 how is busting through bars that easy at an angle. 1:30 traffic open middle lane bs. 1:35 see a RPM TACH. 1:35 no crash or boom but some rods instead. 1:39 white car fixed again. 2:39 no bullet holes white car. 2:40 boat no car then car under boat. This doesnt have shit on "Ronin" which was real as possible not fake like this.
かっこいいんだけれど、ホシを逃がしてしまうのでカタルシスに乏しい。
Dodge Aspen 1
