eliyesI'm watching Streets of Fire.
This movie is so bad. XD
The music is actually fairly great, and the sets and costumes and the whole 50s/80s neon-and-grime megopolis ambiance are well-crafted, but the acting -- oh, man, the acting -- especially the mains -- just feels so rushed that no one has a chance to establish any chemistry, or emote, or anything. I also think Billy Fish should have more attitude and bite, but given they cast Rick Moranis to play him, I'm thinking maybe his thing is that he has less attitude than he thinks he does.
Willem Dafoe is still plenty creepy a shiny black hip-waders wearing, murderous kidnapping biker gang leader rapist. But, seeing as this is Willem Dafoe, he could be a whole hell of a lot creepier. Like I said, it's rushed.
