Summary: The Zombie Squad?
Review: When people watch the recent "action" movies that have been released in theaters, they definitely are not getting what film-goers got out of action movies in the 80's. What makes action movies, "Action Movies", is the obvious lack of story, poor acting, and endless amounts of cheese. Cobra has it all...and much, much more! From the group of psychos that are bent on creating "The Way of the New World" to Marion Cobretti, Stallone, and his Zombie Squad, Cobra never lets you forget that it is a terrible movie, which means it is awesome. The Zombie Squad is supposed to be the misfit cops who do the jobs the "real" cops won't do. Stallone heads this rag tag crew, which involves only Poppy from Seinfeld fame, against the dirtiest man alive, who leads...the group of men and women who kill hot chicks. Are you following me? No? Good. Some highlights, the soundtrack...trust me, pure cheese, and the give and take between Cobretti and the Lieutenant who disagrees with Cobra's methods, riveting stuff. The fight at the end between Cobretti and the whole Attractive-Girl Slaughtering Gang deserves an award. I am not sure what award, maybe a bucket of KFC? Any way, this movie is atrocious...so buy it to annoy your friends or your girlfriend.

Summary: THIS MOVIE ROCKS
Review: Cobra is an all time favourite of mine, I can't believe the bad reviews. This film I think is well made, it's exciting. I love this film.

I think Sly and Brigette Nielsen had wonderful chemisty together, there intrieging to watch. Brigette is wonderful to watch, a fine actress. Slyvester is cool as usual. I everything about this film, the music, the story, the actors. Brian Thompson is a favourite of mine. He plays the psycho well, especially the attack on Ingrid in the hospital.

So if you haven't seen this film, please don't believe the negitive reviews, this film is a classic in my opinion.

Summary: A very bad movie
Review: There really is not any redeeming factors in the movie. The acting is simple terrible! The story is only average but it is poorly told. Like many bad movies the only thing it is worth watching for is a good laugh.

If you like Stallone stay away you will be terribly disappionted. Sly as many movies that are leaps and bonds better than this thing.

Summary: Not much of a movie, but COBRA has some nice toys
Review: This entire movie can be boiled down to: violent cop chases crazy murderer and lots of people get shot. Typical junk that came out of Hollywood in the 80-90's. Fun movies to watch because of the action and neat toys, but so detached from reality they are like cartoons with real people.

Stallone has a really cool car that gets destroyed during the show. Too bad, because that car was the main highlight of the movie for me.

He walks around with a 1911 stuffed in his pants at 12 o'clock. Stupid way to carry a sidearm because it's in full view and is pointing at something he would probably like to keep.

Movies like this contributed to the negative perceptions that many people have of firearms and police. In the real world, they don't work like in this, and those who serve the public don't act like this.

Fun to watch.

Summary: Snake is the Name
Review: Sly manages to parody himself in this over the top cop horror drama that concerns a cult gang that hangs around sewers and clinks axes all day. Sly plays a runaway, foul mouthed and rule breaking cop who says, "If a thug aint dead, he aint worth living". Make sense of that if you can. It's especially funny to watch Nielson pass off as a credible actress, she was awful in everything else she did, why not here? Yup, you guessed it, bad too! If you get over the tag line then you can savor this for it's rather absurd moments, Sly chewing on a match for one.

Summary: The logical endpoint for the "Dirty Harry" genre
Review: "Dirty Harry" started the genre of "the maverick cop willing to bend a few rules and break a few constitutional rights to get the job done" genre, and "Cobra" is the genre's logical endpoint. It's fitting that two of the principal actors in Dirty Harry also appear in Cobra (Andy Robinson and Reni Santoni). I believe that was no accident of casting.

Cobra is reductivist in its storyline, with every character, every scene boiled down to the essentials. The troubled, violent cop. The maniac bad guy. The interesting weaponry. The violation of due process. The ethnic sidekick/partner. The damsel in distress. They're all here, performing their exact functions, no more, no less.

Summary: Cobra
Review: Cobra DVD ~ George P. Cosmatos is not a profound or smart movie. Yet I love it since it is a pure adrenaline action flick with no pretense to teach you anything. Stallone is awesome and the special effects are quick good.

Summary: He only has a LITTLE attitude problem
Review: Well, where do we start with this classic? This is the movie that had Sylvester Stallone mutter the immortal lines "Crime's the disease; I'm the cure" and (my favorite), when a bad guy says he's going to blow up a super market Stallone coolly says "That's OK, I don't shop here." Yes, Cobra is a bad movie, but one of those so bad it's good movie. You can't take this movie as a seriously as the actors do. Stallone is a only slightly more stable version of Rambo; it's his usual stuff, you either love him or hate him. Brigitte Nielsen (Stallone's former wife, or his favorite mistake) is a model that is targeted for assination by an axe weilding Dooms Day cult (led by the really freaky Brian Thompson) that's dedicated to chaos. I liked "Cobra", it's a standard mid-80s action movie. It is really funny, in a couldn't possibly really happen that way, and you just have to laugh at it kind of way. And George P. Cosmatos did a really good job with the action scenes, which are amazing; especially the car chase with Cobra's classic Shelby Ford Cobra (Stallone's personal car).
