80s Drama
4 Stars
Solid, solid work here. Surprisingly, the Wang Chung soundtrack, which was such a huge selling point when the movie was originally released, both does and does not hold up. Sometimes it sounds like cheese, and sometimes it seems to be proudly holding up the era. Petersen is a little tough to take sometimes with his bowlegged attempt at hip, but Dafoe does not disappoint. This is gritty L.A. filmmaking. Wonderfully shot.
