Streets of Fire

Walter Hill's stylish rock & roll fable holds up well despite its dated look or maybe because of it. The film is all about style and attitude, so there's not much of a story or character development. It has all the energy and feel of the 80's with its style and look. What makes the film work is Hill's style and the talented cast with Michael Paré and Diane Lane as the hot and sexy leads, a very creepy and young Willem Dafoe as well as Amy Madigan and Rick Moranis. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
