5/5 Can't use it
  by J. Popp (Branson, MO)
I purchased this thinking that my Blu-Ray player would be able to read it, but it couldn't. I love this movie and now have an HD disc that I can't use. It's not the seller's fault, the item is perfect.

4/5 (3.5 STARS): "A Rock'N'Roll Fable" Back in 1984
  by Tsuyoshi (Kyoto, Japan)
"Street of Fire" is a Walter Hill / Joel Silver film that was a commercial flop back in 1984 but has gained a cult status since then. In this "Rock'n'Roll Fable" a popular rock singer Ellen (played by Diane Lane) is kidnapped by motorcycle gang "The Bombers." Ellen happens to be ex-girlfriend of a "mercenary" Tom Cordy (Michael Paré) who is back in town and sets out to rescue her. You may say the story is too silly. Yes, I know, but perhaps that is the point.

Actually this Western-like story is told in the fashion of 50s-ish B-films shown at drive-in theaters. See a switchblade-wielding kid and how he is treated by our always reliable hero and you know what I mean. Dialogues and one-lines are often terribly corny, but they are all intentional. The film's climax of course has a "duel" between Tom Cordy and the villain "Raven" (Willem Dafoe with a strange haircut), a one-on-one fight using unique choice of weapons. And don't forget Link Wray's classic song "Rumble."

Diane Lane (after two Francis Ford Coppola-directed films "The Outsides" and "Rumble Fish" both based on S.E. Hinton novels) plays the kidnapped rock star, but her role is comparatively small and unmemorable. It is Amy Madigan (to be Oscar nominated next year for her turn in "Twice in a Lifetime") who steals the show as "McCoy" who would make a much stronger fighter than Michael Paré's hero. Bow-tied Rick Moranis also appears as Ellen's manager. Don't miss Bill Paxton as bartender and Elizabeth Daily, whose role "baby Doll" suddenly shows up, and disappears.

Like Jack Hill's cult film "Switchblade Sisters," this is basically a kind of fantasy with a preposterous story and larger than life characters that exist only in cinema, and as to "Street of Fire" it is precisely made that way. We didn't get it back then when it was released, but maybe some of us do now in the post-Tarantino era. Also, as is often the case with these cult films (and Tarantino films), the soundtrack music by Ry Cooder is great.

5/5 Streets of Fire
  by P. amsden
My family and I watched this movie years ago and really enjoyed it. My son mentioned this movie recently and said he would really like to see it again. After looking at local movie rental places and not finding it, I looked on amazon.com and found it. I ordered it and it is still as good as we remembered.

4/5 This Rocks

Great Cast,the opening concert sceen with Diane Lane is worth the price of the movie alone.Good roles by Michael Pare and Willem Dafoe.Rick Moranis plays his usual Sarcastic lame part.
