It’s not even one of Stallone’s best in terms of his filmography, but it's goofy enough and self-knowing to offer fans of the genre a spot of big, loud, dumb fun. Stallone plays Marion "Cobra" Cobretti, a sunglasses-at-night (how 80s!) rogue cop who’s introduced slicing the tops off supermarket cans with a knife because… well, because it’s 1986. The plot is little more than a vehicle for his one-liners, explosive shootouts and Stallone driving a cool motorbike. The story isn't long and the villains feel like they wandered in from a much weirder movie—yet that odd clash of tones makes it feels like two completely different stories were stitched together. Every shot feels engineered to make Stallone look impossibly tough (as I'm sure he was trying to keep up with Schwarzenegger at the time!), the action sequences are nice and 'real' (i.e. long before everything had to be CGI) and the film takes itself just seriously enough that it loops right back around into being entertaining. Brigitte Nielsen starts off as a siren-type character and ends up practically as the 'girl next door.' If you’re looking for a genuinely great 80s action movie, there are better options. But if what you want is a simple dose of pure, uncut 80s cheese with Stallone at peak "cool cop" intensity then 'Cobra' absolutely delivers. It’s a flawed movie, but also a wildly entertaining one and sometimes that’s exactly the charm you’re in the mood for.

"Cobra" (1986) is an action thriller with Sylvester Stallone, written by Sylvester Stallone and basically directed by Sylvester Stallone - even if at helm of this movie officially was George P. Cosmatos. This film is the kind of the film that one will either like it or hate it. I personally always enjoyed "Cobra" due its pure escapism factor and Sylvester Stallone being at the peak of his action carrier. Its a simple film, filled 80's one liners, gunshots and explosion in the second half of its 86 min run time. "Cobra" ranks among my favorite movie by Sylvester Stallone - it is simply a pure 80's escapism - nothing more. Overall, "Cobra" is as simple action thriller as they go - a super cop on a mission to protect a witness while killing tons of bad guys during the process. The plot makes no sense - like why would literally tens of fanatics chase one witness openly during day time in order to kill her because she saw one of them? But who cares - Sylvester Stallone and Brigitte Nielsen looks awesome, action scenes are good, sound design is excellent and that is enough for a fun 1 h 26 min. actioner. Simple times.
