Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Ortiz Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

MarkAmovie A brutal movie with one of the best and most original deaths of a villain. The film does not have much going for it both from the story or characters but it still manages to be a great 80's action. It is by no means Stallone's best work, however, the dark tone is surprisingly fresh when you consider that Lethal weapon, Robocop and Beverly hills cop, were released a year later. There's just something about this movie that is so good that one can only understand once you've watched it. A must see for any Stallone fan, as I feel this one is a truly unique action film.

aj0899 If you watch this movie expecting realism, you will find yourself throwing your hands up more than once at stuff that is absurd. But if you look at it as a live action comic book with some music video thrown in, it's not bad entertainment. The action, suspense, atmosphere and style is pretty well done within that context. I probably won't watch it again any time soon, but I don't regret watching it.

Sam smith (sam_smithreview) Not sure how many people know this but this was going to be Beverly Hills Cop. Imagine that. Stallone was first asked to do Beverly Hills cops and he came up with few revision for the script which changed the whole genre, from light comedy and few action to simply action and much more action. But who didn't like Stallone's Cobra? This guy was more of a Bad ass then most criminals are today.As bad as this going to sound, I happen to enjoy this movie, it's so cheesy and sleazy and impossible not to like! Stallone mumbles and grunts his way through the film whilst Ms. Nielsen is nothing more than eye candy. Reni Santori mugs for the camera and does his best to deliver his goofy and inane dialog as the movie's designated comic relief. He also has bad timing in these movies because something always happens to him. The villains are pretty straight forward sweaty and delusional psychos who need to learn some basic manners.

SnoopyStyle Lieutenant Marion 'Cobra' Cobretti (Sylvester Stallone) is a volatile violent LAPD detective. His partner is Sergeant Gonzales. If there are rules, Cobra is sure to break them. The city is terrorized by Night Slasher who attacks random targets. He is actually the leader of a mysterious underground group with an unknown goal. Ingrid (Brigitte Nielsen) is a model driving late at night. Unbeknownst to her, she sees the Night Slasher's face. With help inside the LAPD, the group tracks her down but she escapes.This is full-on cheesy. This is basically a violent comic book movie without the realism. These villains love their hammers. It is ridiculous. Sly's acting is not good enough even for a Rambo movie. The story is nothing. There are some action. The explosions almost make this fun.
