A lot of people on here claim this is the greatest movie ever made and what-not.
I don't think it quite earns that title but its definately one of my favourite films from the 80s. Like its waaay up there on the list!
Anyone agree with that take on it?
Whats an 80s film you find better than this?

My faves for the 80's are Beverly Hills Cop 1 , Back to the Future 1 & 2 , Trick or Treat with Marc Price for the soundtrack. I'll have to add more later.

Ghostbusters was another one that I would highly rank in my top 80s flicks now that I think about it! Back to the future I totally agree with. What the heck is Trick or Treat? Never heard of it!

The essence of the 80's - RAMBO movies! I think Rambo: First Blood Part II is the greatest action film ever made.

Back to the Future probably. I didn't really like the 80's. I liked the 70's better.

I've been around on this planet for close to 3 decades now and I still haven't got around to watching Scarface yet!
Update: I've finally seen it now and remedied this problem. Saw it a a month or so ago!

For pure entertainment, it has to be Beverly hills cop. From an artistic viewpoint, id have to say Raging Bull.Specila mention has to be made for Scarface as well.

I'm suprised no one has mentioned The Terminator and the Indiana Jones trilogy yet. Those would take my vote.

After the Star Wars films, I'd say that Aliens, Raiders of the lost Ark, Terminator, and the Hunt for Red October are the best of the 80s. But I think Beverly hills cop would probably be in my top 10 or 15 for the 80s

Star Wars was 1977. I think Empire was 1980 and Jedi was what 84 so I guess they qaulify. And what about the Fright Night films and the Road Warrior and Silver Bullet?
