It's funny, I was thinking about that film earlier today. The big problem with it was simply that it was a sequel to a movie that had never been made.

Cobra is sort of a cross between Dirty Harry and the Punisher. He's a tough as nails cop who's given free reign to handle violent crime his way. But despite an opening narration discussing crime statistics, and ending on a particularly sinister note of rape frequency (which one would assume was foreshadowing), all of the crimes in the film are just mindless killings perpetrated by members of a cult. That's a type of crime, sure, but fascists psychotics trying to bring about a new order are not the first thing you think about when it comes to crime.

The first film should've had him fighting gang members, drug pushers, and a white collar rapist who thinks his wealth will protect him. The crazy cult should've been the sequel.

Wasn't it based on a book? Anyway, I only wish the Rated X version was released to the public. There's like an hour of footage that was cut for the theatrical release that we'll never get to see.

I wish we got the extra hour that was in Stallone's cut of Rocky IV.

But yeah, I'd say Rocky was his best tbh.

Yeah, I'd forgotten about that. It was called Fair Game. Apparently, it was a very loose adaptation. So much so that they went ahead and made a more straightforward adaptation featuring Cindy Crawford as a costar.

I imagine Stallone rewrote most things so he could look as badass as possible. And it worked:

I think there's a bootleg version somewhere on the internet, but I haven't really checked.
