Review

a classic. there were quite a few bully films that came out in the 80s…karate kid, 3 o’clock high and neverending story are two that come to mind immediately, but there are plenty more. i love adam baldwin’s character because i love the idea of latent power…a force that is just waiting to impose justice if the need be. the score is understated and serves the film well. effective direction.
