I thought it was well sung by Sly. Good song overall.

I love this movie, and the soundtrack. My favorite scene is the race across the rooftops. Sylvester Stallone and Armand Assante have wonderful chemistry.

... I admire a person that's willing to do whatever is necessary.

Not only was the movie bad, but the opening and closing song was enough to push me to find a sharp object and end it all.

I should have turned it off in the amazingly long dull, poorly shot roof facing scene.

Sly should NOT be singing anything in public!

Love how Sly sang the hell out of that theme song.
