I was lucky enough to see this true work of goddamn ****ing cinematic art in the theater on its opening weekend.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.

First job was at Mann theaters, therefore, a great thread!

Wow..I remember watching this movie way back in '86 when I was in Jr high. If I remember correctly, I saw it at the Mann Theater at the Old Town Mall in Torrance, CA on Hawthorne Blvd. Even as a kid, I recognized the cheesy and questionable quality of this film. I still recall that the audience gasped when Cobra wrecked his cool Mercury car.

Saw it during my senior year at high school.

I graduated HS in '86, I saw this that summer in a 2nd run theaterbecause I pretty much saw ALL my movies in a local 2nd run theater in those days.

close to being one of the worst he's made,garbage in the mid 80's,still garbage 3 decades later.

I saw this film in the theater when it first came out with my mom, younger brother, and older sister.

I saw it as a midnight feature when it first premiered in Scottsdale, AZ with a few of my High School buddies in '86.

last beep fight is wild bruuuuuuuuuuuuutal!!!!

Haha! The movie rocks! What a masterpiece, Sly is simply amazing.

I saw it on VHS here in Serbia. Yup, pirate copy. But who cared, it's Stallone.

I saw this in the ABC cinema chains in London. Before the release we were promised lots and lots of violence and nudity, saw the film and was bitterly disappointed. Hardly any on screen violence at all and pretty predictable film.

I saw it at the Ohio theater in my hometown on Madison, Indiana in the Summer of 1986. I was 15 and my mom and step-dad took me to see it. Not a masterpiece, but a pretty good cop flick; this kind of movie has been done far worse plenty of times.

I did when I was 16-17 with my Dad and to this day whenever we are in a parking garage we joke about speeding around the garage like Cobra.

I was 16 at the time, and even then it seemed pretty cheesy. The two things that impressed me though, was the '50 Mercury and how hot Brigette Nielsen was. As someone above posted, I watched the first 15 minutes of it recently, and couldn't bear it. The MPAA should have fined everyone involved with this production, from Sly all the way down to the grips.
Hard to defend the eighties to a younger generation with pop culture like this.

Not me because I wasn't around in 1986 but I wish I was I was born too late

I saw it. I was 9 years old.

Yeah, can't remember where, and I loved it and bought it on VHS and watched it loads. I can't believe what a terrible crappy film it is. Watched it again recently. Now I'm tempted to watch it again. I've gone wrong.
Worth seeing, but not worth going to see.

Saw it on May 23rd, 1986 (my 19th Birthday). Loved the opening, the rest - not so much.

I saw it on VHS the day it came out, loved it then still love it now.

I was really looking forward to seeing Bridgette naked back then but it didn't happen
