1986 | Action, Adventure
A big ridiculous slice of the finest 80's camenbert that I just couldn't help but enjoy. Stallone is on fine ass kicking form as the hilariously named Marion "cobra" Cobretti (who for some reason has a matchstick in his mouth for almost the entire running time) offing bad guys in creatively violent ways. It actually starts off pretty dark before descending into more generic action fare towards the end but is unfortunately made laughable at times by being shot like a music video. The dialogue and soundtrack is pretty cringeworthy and I don't know what was going on with Brigitte Nielsen's photo shoot with a bunch of robots?. Yes it's crap but it's under 90 minutes and never boring. You could do worse for some easy action thrills.

TV Show Rating
Iconic British cult adventure series. Very few shows change as much as The Avengers did over its seven season run; what started off as a gritty thriller about Ian Hendry's crime-busting doctor gradually transformed first into virtual science fiction (the Diana Rigg episodes feature mind-swapping machines, killer robots and a brain-controlling alien plant) and then a much more whimsical fantasy show for its final year or so.

Many of the early episodes are quite hard work now, but the two seasons where Macnee is paired with Diana Rigg are classic TV, and the sometimes-maligned final season with Linda Thorson also contains many neglected gems (the episode with the murderous clowns, for instance). Even when the show is not quite firing on all cylinders, there is always Patrick Macnee's inimitable performance as Steed to enjoy.
