Probably my favourite Stallone movie. Stallone is the cure for the disease known as "crime." Sweet aviators, a nice ride, a tendancy to rip peoples' wife beaters off, cutting pizza with scissors, taking a swig of beer while in pursuit of the great Marco RodrÃguez(in his greatest role since Maniac Cop 2), one-liners, a sweet gun with a Cobra on the handle, getting with Brigette Nielsen back when she was a goddess, & defeating Brian Thompson. What a movie. Great soundtrack too.

this film should be compulsory in schools. kids need to know that the law is pointless and the best way to deal with crime is by murdering criminals.

Easily the 2nd greatest film of all-time. I love it so much, I bought the Night Slasher knife. I occasionally ask people if they want to go to hell with me and when I talk, I be sure annunciate every word by spewing spit everywhere. "The court is civilized, isn't it, Pbthig?"

This is where the law stop`s and I start... SUCKA!
Cobra features one of the best opening`s to any film in the history of mankind.

What about the awesome soundtrack? particularly 'Angel of the city, 'Hold on to your vision' and 'Feel the heat', great stuff!
Also like the final scene with the Nightslasher, gotta love the way he says "PIG" ;D
Would have liked to have seen a Cobra 2, perhaps with a bigger budget, and even more villains.

The shootout/chase at the climax of this movie is one of the greatest action scenes of all time. Absolutely terrific, and certainly one of Stallone's finest moments in film history.
I also love how he keeps gun cleaning kit in the freezer with a slice of pizza, which he cuts into little triangles with a pair of scissors. ;D

I love Cobra, like it's been said already it's one of Stallone best! But the film itself feels like a sequel to a film we didn't see yet.

Could you elaborate on what elements made you feel that way? Is it like watching Magnum Force if the first Dirty Harry didn't exist? Magnum Force is great but it lacks something if you haven't seen part 1.

No, but the Region 1 DVD does have a few extras, including an allegedly none too insightful commentary from Cosmatos.

George P. Cosmatos's commentary on the dvd is about as boring as watch a parapellegic turtle try to eat breakfast. I have never been more tuned-out in my life. "y-you see here.....th-de Stallone go and he rip de shirt down on the guy. and den here u u see de micropho- on his ch-chest like dit...an-and den he jusd goes." It's like listening to a spanish Lance Henriksen with a beergut the size of Bennett's thigh.

Apparently he had an allergic reaction to the KY in and around his asshole and it caused his muscles to atrophy. Poor guy.

I`m avoiding all of Vig`s link`s. What`s everyone`s favorite tune from the flick? Mine`s Angel In The City. Robot`s, Sly, Bridget Nelson showing some skin. Doesn`t get much better.
