- ********************
- A mercenary is hired to rescue his ex-girlfriend, a singer who has been kidnapped by a motorcycle gang.
- Rock and Roll singer is taken captive by a motorcycle gang in a strange world that seems to be a cross of the 1950's and the present or future. Her ex-boyfriend returns to town and to find her missing and goes to her rescue.
- "Streets of Fire" is billed as a rock and roll fable, but eclectic is the best way to describe this. It's a comic book, but also a fantasy, western, alternate reality, chock full of bikers and greasers and thrown together on a rain-soaked neon-lit backlot. Looking at the clothes and cars in this movie is to imagine MTV being around in the '50s. Heady stuff, and makes for terrific midnight viewing. This is a movie that, not only features the smoldering heat of Diane Lane as a rock singer, but also Rick Moranis as her tough-talking manager. Doesn't seem like a good fit, but it totally works here. At the end of the day, it's just a great Walter Hill action movie.<br/><br/>7/10
- This movie is yet another example of how really poor marketing can doom a movie. Walter Hill's self-proclaimed "Rock and Roll Fable" has everything that makes a movie worth watching. Interesting characters, great sets and lots of action make this movie well worth the time.<br/><br/>Technically, the film is brilliantly edited. It sets a pace and sticks with it, making maximum use of the action without having that choppy MTV feel that most editors have caved in to. Jim Steinman's soundtrack is one of the best I have ever heard.<br/><br/>Walter Hill gets solid performances from his cast although I have always wondered about Deborah Van Valenburgh's role. I get the impression after watching the movie a few times that a lot of her work ended up on the cutting room floor. I once heard a critic, either Siskel or Ebert perhaps, say that Amy Madigan should have gotten a Best Supporting Actress nod for her performance in this movie. I agree. This is some of her best work ever.<br/><br/>Diane Lane is gorgeous as always but doesn't really have enough to do. Her musical numbers are staged well and she does a good job with them. Michael Pare' plays yet another tough guy. One real treat is an early perfomance by Willem DaFoe as the villian Raven. You can see that he had a good career ahead of him back then. You can also catch Bill Paxton in a bit part as a bartender.<br/><br/>All in all, this is an excellent little movie that should be remembered much more than it is. Check it out sometime.
- The message is that there is no message; if this isn't action cinema in its purest form, then it's pretty close.
- The film was created with the intention of being the first in a series of three. Sadly the terrible commercial response to 'Streets' eliminated any possible continuation. Despite frequent requests from hardcore fans, there is little chance of any sequels seeing the light of day. Perhaps due to the fact that the part had originally been written for a man and was only slightly modified after Amy Madigan expressed an interest in playing the role, this has become one of the most frequently debated topics on these boards and sadly there is no definitive answer. Both sides of the argument can quote dialogue that they feel proves their point but no one involved with the production has ever truly taken a side to either confirm or deny the characters orientation. It is simply left for each fan to decide for themselves. However, throughout the film, McCoy smokes cigars. In the old days of Hollywood, this was a visual code that a woman was gay. Hill likely added this as a knowing wink to older viewers. a5c7b9f00b
