Red Heat (1988) East Meets West of the 80s Buddy Cop Movies
Manage episode 413708857 series 3418151
In the 1980s a handful of actors ruled the Action Genre. And one of the biggest, if not the biggest of that decade was the star of this movie, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Red Heat is a buddy cop movie with one major twist to the formula. While the unpredictable crazy Big City Cop is pretty standard to the formula, the other buddy in this movie is from Russia. Now that's “Zabavnyy”. James Belushi co-stars, so humor with a hint of "unpredictability" that is totally predictable, is probably guaranteed. Add some over-the-top action, a handful of one-liners galore, and at least a dozen reasons Arnold’s character ends up in situations that cause him to become shirtless, and presto, we got an 80s action flick we couldn't be more excited to watch. So let's go, Comrades!
