Yet another 80's supercar movie, but the car doesn't take center stage in this one. Tommy Lee Jones does.

Ho hum, another 80's supercar movie... no wait, that's Tommy Lee Jones. And Linda Hamilton. And the car doesn't get all that much screen time! Wait, could this be a (gasp!) real movie? Yes!

The car (an aircraft-composite alternate-fuel vehicle named "Black Moon") doesn't get much in the way of road time, as it's the target of some ne-er-do-well car thieves early in the flick. But Tommy Lee's got to get something he dropped back... and it's in the car. And what's this? The car theft ringleader (Robert Vaughn) is a white-collar corporate type who's not about to just let it be driven away? Hrmm... this isn't sounding like our usual crash-em-up plot here. Lots of intrigue, quite a bit of steamy interaction between Jones and Hamilton, and some wonderful stuntwork (including jumping a car from one skyscraper to another). Definitely worth a couple of bucks at the video store for a few nights.

Trivia
John Carpenter wrote this about the time he made 'Escape from New York'. In interviews he confessed he has never seen the final film.

Goofs
At about the 43 minute mark, as Quint surveys the towers with binoculars, two yellow pencils are visible stuck upright into the planters and flowerpots of the middle plaza, revealing the scene to be a fabricated mini model.

Quotes
Marvin Ringer: Mr. Quint and I go back a ways. We used to be, what, in competition?
Quint: I never considered you competition, Marvin.
Marvin Ringer: Aw, that's not nice Quint. We had our moments.
Quint: You must have had yours in private.
