 Nothing says class like eating pizza with a pair of scissors March 9, 2010

Since it was so overdue we decided to get back to basics and finally tackle the Stallone classic Cobra. Judging from our extensive past of some of the world's greatest B you may be asking why did it take so long for the review on this one? Well it's simple. Cobra is somewhere in that back pocket selection we've created for ourselves. For us it's one of those classics that is very easy to access forcing it to get knocked behind some harder to find B. So the other evening when it appeared on a favorite action channel we decided it was the perfect time to reintroduce ourselves to the man known as Marion Cobretti.
Right from the start it becomes clear this is easily one of Stallone's top 5 most B films as he takes the scene in a local grocery store. The dialogue is something that is almost too hilarious to even comprehend. With lines like "I don't deal with psychos. I put them away," "go head I don't shop here," and "you're a disease and I'm the cure" you will be left in a state of pure shock from some of the finest scripted lines in the history of film. Stallone plays Lt. Cobretti "Cobra" that's hot on the trail of a new murderous cult wreaking havoc in his city. Once the lunatics take aim at Brigitte Nielsen (whose hot according to Santa) Cobra takes his game to another level in the a** kicking department. He proves that no maniac, cult, or army could do anything except slightly inconvenience him as he brings them time once broken nose at a time.
Cobra has held up so well over time easily earning itself a 5 star ratting. There is so much going on here it's hard to write about it without going on for hours. Honestly the writing is something that is nothing more then mind boggling as the ultra tough one liners pour out with no end until the credits roll. It's a film that truly hard to wrap your head around unless your a very large advocate of the B arts. See for us this film is pure gold and even inspired an interesting thought (without any mind altering substances involved). We started to think how amazing it would be if two iconic Stallone characters in Marion Cobretti and Frank Leonne would join forces in the ultimate criminal take down team. That is something the may make the t.v screen explode from sheer B overload.
Awsome action,Beautiful Merc February 22, 2010

This movie is absolutely great, The actors, the action, the beautiful Merc. I remember when I first saw it years ago. I am glad to add it to my car movie collection

But why is it some of Stallone's best movies come in those cheap-*ss clip cases? Y'know the ones the you unclip and they unfold open? They are flimsy and the disc doesn't stay in very well either.
As far as the movie goes, this has always been one of my favorites. A young sexy Sly stars as Marion Cobretti (aka Cobra) a cop from a division of the police known as the Zombie Squad. One night a young woman (Brigitte Nielsen's character), Ingrid Knudsen, witnesses a murder by a serial killer known as `The Night Slasher.' After an attempt on her life she is put in to protective custody with Cobra and his wise cracking partner (Reni Santoni) Gonzales. Just like any other Stallone movie he beats the bad guy and gets the girl in the end.
 Things I learned from watching Cobra January 22, 2010

Things I learned from watching Cobra:
Stock brokers, thugs, burglers, weight-lifters and other various and sundry folks like to meet in abandoned warehouses and clink axes together in unison thinking of the "new world"
If you're stabbing an innocent woman by the side of the road, don't get caught so easily
Scissors are great for cutting pizza
The killers of the New World are willing to blow up an entire town, kill people in all ways imaginable, create huge attention trying to avoid attention...?
Cobra can bump his 1950 Merc into a bunch of cholos and get away with it unlike today where he'd get his head blown-off
Shopping carts bounce into the air when you shoot them with shotguns
If you're robbing a grocery store, destroy all the produce and canned products and shopping carts using up your ammo right away then shoot a kid wearing a Raiders hat who you promise to let go free
There was a time when Brigitte Nielsen looked damn good
"Call the Cobra" should be a standard cliche when psychos take over grocery stores
A guy walking around a hospital with bizarre slicked back hair and a huge body-builder physique carrying a giant dagger with a conspicuously guilty face fits right into the hospital wards
Don't put too much catsup on your fries
If a woman ID's you committing a heinous murder, just dye your hair and that changes everything!
If you're inside a grocery store during a hostile takeover trying to free the hostages, reach for a Coors!
Cobra January 7, 2010
Arnita D. Brown (USA)
A street-tough detective's no-nonsense approach to law enforcement is tested to the utmost when he single-handedly tackles a marauding band of psycho-bikers who strike randomly. There is only one thing I have to say about this movie. Crime is the disease and Cobra is the cure. Very entertaining movie.
