HM: Cobra, Assassins, No Place to Hide (1970), Death Race 2000, Oscar, Judge Dredd, Grudge Match

The correct answer is "Victory" or "Escape to Victory"

Only two others I think very highly of:

1. "Night Hawks"

2. "Copland"

That's it, I cant think of anything else.

Nighthawks was a great yet sadly forgotten thriller.

Stallone, Hauer, Williams…good cast, fine movie.

reply

Yep, totally agreed. For Sly, probably only Rocky part 1 and the first Rambo - First Blood I think it was called - those are the only two movies he ever did (IMO) that eclipse "Night Hawks".

reply

Rocky and First Blood are fine movies. I’ve read the First Blood novel by David Morrell three times, it’s a bit different from the movie but it’s excellent.

If you love Sly check out his show ‘Tulsa King.’ It’s a fast paced crime story with some good characters and Stallone is the star. It’s very good👍

Ok, sounds good. Thank you.

Demolition Man - (My all time fav period even when including Rambo/Rocky)
Assassins
Lock Up
Cliff Hanger
Bullet to the Head

The Expendables flicks don't make my top 5 if if they were included.

I go with the OP picks in a slightly different order-

1. Copland
2. Demolition Man
3. Cliffhanger
4. Daylight
5. Lock Up

reply

Nighthawks
Tango and Cash
The Specialist
Cliffhanger
Judge Dredd

He was better as a writer/director than an action star to me. But some of the movies he wrote were not very good.

Liked all the Rockys except for Rocky 5. Never really liked Rambo. The Expendables 1 and 2 are good. 3 is disappointing.
