Always love the style of that 1950s Mercury Stallone drove. Awesome hood scoop on that 50s Mercury as well. Very nice car any old car enthusiast would like to drive or own....
@@chrisflores4788 I like the 50 Mercury as well. Loved that smooth rounded shape and that hood scoop gave the 50 Mercury just enough hot rod look..... Nice car.

i mean.. that was just for legal reasons Technically he gave him 1 SPLIT SECOND to do the right thing when he CLEARLY refused, Cobra unloaded AN ENTIRE CLIP into his chest Ya know... Because it was NECESSARY :P

Cringy tagline though.
@@deanjones684 Of course!.....

HEY DIRT BAG... YOUR A LOUSY SHOT..
"Go ahead. I don't shop here..."
A true legend!
My favorite line!
Perfect line. The Eastwood thing with 'go ahead, make my day' was just a year or two prior to this. This made a nice, comedic change of pace.

It's another day at the office for Cobra.

Cowboy boots in movies are magical. Sometimes they make noise sometimes they don’t.
he had 3 lifts on those boots,very lame
Still one of the most memorable movies growing up in the 80’s and one of the best car chases
Definitely! I agree!
Such an iconic 80's flick-down to Stallone's huge sunglasses and matchstick! Sly's answer to Arnie's Commando a year earlier!
Yeah - but - still amazed Stallone turned down Beverly Hills Cop to make this version. Considering that BHC made about $100 million more.
Xaaxaaa😊😊😊b
The golden age of cinema.
Stallone isn't acting here; he's just being himself. He's just a natural badass.
The guy playing the gunman does a great job playing an unstable maniac.

Still have this movie on VHS, and I'm never giving it away!

Pretty much everything in a movie is negotiated, even in the '80's.
But, I guess some spots are a a lot more prominent than others, lol.
lots of product placement. What a huge supermarket!
@@russs3001 True, but it is also true that stores were often stacked to the rafters with product, unlike the barebones stores you often see now.

It is still awesome even for a 50 yr old. What you mean???
"You're a lousy shot... I don't like lousy shots"

In 1986, this was just a movie. Today, its like a story on the news.
💯
Scary
You got that right
Y la sociedad, o más bien las autoridades, siguen siendo igual: protegiendo a los delincuentes.
But there is no Cobra
True
This is my favourite scene cobra sylvester stallone
"go ahead, I don't shop here." What a badass line.
The definitive underrated ‘80s classic. This is what made Stallone Sly.
"You're a disease, I'm the cure"
Very nicely put!
Old movies were incredible!
Especially in the 80s and 90s.
“You’re a disease, and I’m the cure”
I love this line
Nah the "drop it" between gunshots was better
I think I have watched this at least 10 times
I especially love how in the frozen food section, there's more fog than a haunted house 😂
I ve watched this movie on VHS when i was 9 yrs old. Now I am 45 and i still love it.😂
Solid 80’s gold!
Yes
Hello handsome 😘😍😍
One of my favorite movie scenes. "I've got a bomb, I'm gonna blow up the whole store!" "Go ahead, I don't shop here."
"i dont deal with psychos, i put em away"
THIS ONE MOVIE I WISH STALLONE DID A PART TWO. HE DROVE THAT CAR LIKE A REAL BADASS TOO 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Long Live The 80s Baby 😎👍
Amen...There were more good movies during the 80's than the other decades COMBINED...
That supermarket design makes me miss the good old grocery stores from the 50's to 90's...
"Cobra, come in, we've got a problem!"
"What is it? More maniacs?"
"No, the movie is over-budget, you've got to stop for some product placement"
This is a classic movie.
Anyone else notice that Cobra drinks warm beer?
Warm beer... eww
Yep probably explains why he tossed it instead of finishing the can.
I'm still trying to understand why if you have a fully staffed SWAT team outside of the store, you're gonna send one dude with a match in his mouth in to resolve the incident, lol
Movie logic.
Coz Stallone vetoed the writers guild assn, took over the Beverly hills script and the director cosmatose was in a comatose state. No kidding esse!!!
Well, clearly, the dude with the match is just WAY COOLER than all those SWAT guys..
Because he’s Stallone although Chuck Norris wasn’t available
don't forget the mirrored shades. nothing says full sight when you wearing sun glasses in a darkened room.

Stallone actually HAPPENED to the 70s
the 80s was an after effect
if not for Rocky and Rambo , none of this would have happened
Today's action heroes will never live up to the 80's standard.
Still is
Nope. Arnold was, along with Mel and Bruce.
i bought a pirated VHS copy of this Flick back in 1987.. Priceless movie back then.
