Before this movie even premiered, critics almost universally panned it. Because of this, many made fun of the film and few went to see it (I was among them). However, a few years later, I saw it on cable TV (on a day I was too lazy to change the channel) and was shocked that I didn't hate the movie. While a little dopey at times, the movie kept my attention and surely didn't deserve all the bad press. Another Stallone movie that falls in the same category was Demolition Man. A decent film--and this is shocking since I am a film snob.
FYI--do not think I am a crazed fan of Stallone or a family member. There are MANY movies he made that I hate--such as Lord of Flatbush, Rambo 2 (one of the DUMBEST movies ever made), or Rhinestone.
