Michael Paré plays a biker who agrees to rescue his ex-girlfriend (a rocker played by Diane Lane) from kidnappers (led by Willem Dafoe). The ensuing battle against a nocturnal background of industrial blight, chrome, and loud music is like some fever dream of a Springsteen fan who listened to the song "Born to Run" far too often. The audacity of the film carries it a long way even after it becomes clear that Hill's experiment is crumbling under its own weight. Dafoe, who looked even spookier back then than he does now, is memorable, as are Amy Madigan and Rick Moranis. Music is by Ry Cooder, with an appearance by the Blasters. The DVD release has a widescreen presentation, optional French soundtrack, optional Spanish subtitles. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:

Of course, Diane Lane is just too hot for words, even today, but look at the other actors in this movie who went on to much bigger thnigs (Willem Dafoe, Michael Pare, and Rick Moranis were all great in this movie). And then theres a lesser known actor named Stoney Jackson, who never made it as big as he should have. Look for others in the background that you may recognize. The music is the star of this ...

Rating: - Streets Of Fire Is Hot!!What I like about this movie is the music, The blasters realy know how to rock. Sorcerer was originaly written by Stevie Nicks and then she and sheril crowe remade it for stevie' lattest project. I love this movie! my now adult kids love this movie. Between the six of us we own three movies and four soundtracks! The era of the 50s and the modern music with a suttle hint of mainstreem video technology realy grabed me. If you like fairy tales this Rock and Roll Fable is ... Read More |
