The eighties were full of incredible action movies, but while a lot of them are considered classics now, some of the best movies (you never saw) routinely get underrated, so here on JoBlo we're celebrating Veteran's Day with three of the best - BLACK RAIN (1989), STREETS OF FIRE (1984) and BLUE THUNDER (1983).
BLACK RAIN (1989) - In director Ridley Scott's neo noir masterpiece, Michael Douglas plays a rebellious cop extraditing a killer to Japan who gets wrapped up in the Yakuza underworld. Co-starring Andy Garcia, Kate Capshaw and Ken Takakura, with music by Hans Zimmer.
STREETS OF FIRE (1984) - Michael Pare, Diane Lane and Willem Dafoe star in Walter Hill's rock-n-roll fable.
BLUE THUNDER (1983) Roy Scheider, Warren Oates, and Malcolm McDowell star in this prescient techno-thriller directed by John Badham.

My mom would occasionally get me a random LP (yes, it was 1980's) from the local library, usually soundtracks for movies I didn't know anything about, and at one point she came home with the BLACK RAIN soundtrack. Loved the music, both Zimmer's score and the pop tunes on there. It introduced me to Iggy Pop, Sakamoto and Les Rita Mitsouko. Saw the film only years later. :-)

Put me in the "Absolutely Love" bucket for Streets of Fire. Been a fav of mine for 30+ years. I worked in a video store in high school, and it was a regular in my rotation. The soundtrack is on my playlist to this day. Listened to "Nowhere Fast" on the way to work today. Diane Lane was incomparable in that movie. She played the rockstar like, well, a rockstar. Dafoe was at his weirdest, too. Full on psycho villain. Looking back, try to come up with another actor who could pull that role off as well as he did.

The thing that probably amazed me the most about Streets of Fire (a favorite of mine as well) was that it was primarily shot on a soundstage! Andrew Laszlo should have been nominated for an Oscar for Best Cinematography for this. It's BEAUTIFUL! Glad to have gotten the Shout Factory Blu Ray, which has an awesome full-length documentary included...as well as a nice little tribute to Bill Paxton (RIP).

Thank you for these. "Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young" is an amazing song and tragically unknown. Amy Madigan starred as an action star in her own right in 1987's dumb but fun Nowhere to Hide, ably assisted for a while by Michael ironside. Diane Lane is, yes, impossibly beautiful -- she marks the first time I ever felt "that way" about Superman's mom. I love Blue Thunder and I count it among the first video-game-based movies, as it feels so much like a game tie-in at the end. Black Rain is fun, though its title reminds of the weird motivations behind recent Bond villains: "I'm going to counterfeit American money as revenge for nuclear fallout." I've already bugged you about Shakedown with Peter Weller, Sam Elliott, and the enchanting Patricia Charbonneau. Thanks again.

Also Blue Thunder inspired Super thunder Blade and it appears as mid boss in Midnight Resistance in Stage 5.

Unlike the USA, Streets of Fire was a big hit in Japan. I was listening to podcast featuring Michael Pare, and he said that the cast got to meet the Emperor of Japan. There were two anime that were influenced by Streets of Fire: 1)Bubblegum Crisis: Priss' rendition of Konya wa Hurricane was influenced by Ellen Aim. 2) Megazone 23: the protagonist and his friends watch Streets of Fire in a theater. When they leave, you can see a big poster of Tom Cody and Ellen Aim.

Streets of Fire was supposed to be the first of a trilogy of films about mercenary Tom Cody. However, since the film flopped at the box office, we never got to see the second and third films. Personally, I loved Streets of Fire and a sequel would have made my day. It's a great film.

Get some Jo & shoot some blo. I've seen all 3 movies, but Black Rain & Blue Thunder are my personal favourites. I love the neo noir look of Osaka, Japan and it is one of Michael Douglas's underrated roles as corrupt NYC cop trying to seek redemption as he searches for the Japanese prisoner they lose in a prisoner exchange that leads to the death of his partner midway through. It was also the beginning of Hans Zimmer music career that would inform his future career. I still have the original Special Edition DVD. Blue Thunder on the other hand, has a really great final half with a fantastic battle over Los Angeles. These type of aerial battles you won't see these days and these amazing sequences for shot for real.

I love Black Rain, I'd love to see an extended cut from Ridley Scott. It irritates me when people say 'racism' and Black Rain in the same sentence, sadly Roger Ebert was one that did that. The few moments of racist/arrogant/dismissive behavior from Douglas's character are vital to his character arc, he completely changes by the end, that's the WHOLE POINT, his growth as a character. Baffling how Ebert didn't see that. The bulk of the film takes place in Osaka not Tokyo btw.

Black Rain and Blue Thunder are top.Top. Movies. From director to catering. And everybody else in between being on their A game. Little bit of trivia. Hans Zimmer score in Black Rain has been used in tons of trailers. Including a little known action flick called Speed. Check it out. And Aussie actor Bryan Brown was originally going to be the bad guy in Blue Thunder. But Columbia saw him as a hero type. And cast Malcolm McDowell late in the day.

What you said about Andy Garcia’s character-type of the likeable-partner-who-always-dies is so true. I’d expand that to the likeable-better-looking-than-the-protagonist side character. Very popular in the 80s and 90s.

Charles Martin Smith: "So, he's saying I'm better looking than Kevin Costner?" Sean Connery: "No, he's saying the _I_ am better looking than Kevin Costner." Andy Garcia: "..." (survives)

Sticking with the military theme, another underrated title from that era is "Fire Birds" (1990), starring Nicholas Cage and Tommy Lee Jones. It’s one of the few films I've seen that feature the Apache attack helicopter and which does a good job of properly representing their true capabilities. I certainly recommend it for anyone interested in them like I was. 😊

I only found out about Black Rain existing a few months back (I was going through movies on IMDB year by year), and I definitely want to check it out.

Blue Thunder and airwolf were my 9 yearold helicopter film/tv JAM! Later, Firebirds. Sadly.

Black Rain hit me hard in the theater back then. It was perfection. Zimmer & Scott nailed it. PS : The biker chief in SoF was not psychotic. He just gave a fuck on women´s rights.

It's weird... I saw "Streets of fire" on VHS back in the day and I had to rewind it immediatly to rewatch it. Then I critics were not to happy and few had seen it, those that had didn't want to talk about it. I felt really off the grid... so I was about 37 years before my time!

I really should give Streets of Fire another go. I was probably too young to get it and appreciate the world they built in it. That being said, I pretty much have Black Rain and Blue Thunder firmly cemented in my head. I had to buy the cassette tape of the soundtrack because I couldn't find it on CD for the longest time. I have Murphy's Theme on my phone and in my car and boy, when it comes on, watch out! It is really astounding that they filmed over LA back then, but really, how else would you do it? And almost all the damage is caused by the police and army. I think if anything Murphy was just flying around and showing the people, how much of a threat BT would be if it were to come true.

I don't know if you have a Netflix account, but it's been streaming since June. I recommend giving it a go. :)
