I love this movie, discovered it at the video store in the mid 90's when I was a teenager and really enjoyed it, Rutger Hauer gives a really good performance as the bad guy especially in the scene where he's running from the cops in the subway, you can see in his performance him panicking and sweating. Sylvester Stallone and Billy Dee Williams give stellar performances as well. Top notch movie.

I saw it in the theatres when it came out, and fell in love with it right away. For the next 35 years afterwards, every time a new Stallone movie came out in which he was playing some kind of a hitman or detective (like Cobra, Tango & Cash, The Specialist etc.) I was hoping it would be in the tradition of Nighthawk. Alas, Stallone has never made another film like this. To this day my dream action thriller would take place in a grimy/seedy place like Nighthawk''s (or the French Connection's) NYC, and would include Stallone playing this character. He is too old now to ever make that dream come true. Sic transit gloria mundi...

I have enjoyed this film for many years. For me it is easily one of Stallone's most underrated performances. At the time I was unaware of such factors as the number of directors involved in the project and it being subject to a number of cuts. I admired its score. While I was in the dark as to why Wagner and Williams had relatively few scenes, I thought Hauer was a great nemesis. And the scene where Stallone confronts him on the sky tram is easily one of the best moments as DeSilva (not DeSilvia as the commentator refers to the character) realizes he is in a tight spot that he might possibly not survive. And Stallone looks scared. To me that is a necessary trait in one being a believable actor. Dare I say I long had high regard for this role before I ever saw the first Rocky.

I would probably not ever have seen this movie, except...I took a film class my senior year in high school. We were required to see a current movie at the cinema and write a review of it. So I saw Night Hawks, which turned out to be surprisingly good! First time I ever saw Rutger Hauer in anything and I became quite a fan, especially a year later when Blade Runner came out. The original soundtrack had "Road Fever" from the Foghat Live album, which also scored points with me.

I remember Nighthawks when it came out. I don't know how producers could think the plot "far fetched." I remember watching, and seeing the news reports of what was going on in Europe at the time, and easily saw how this kind of thing could happen in New York. It ranks high in my movie collection, because Billy Dee Williams, Sly Stallone, and Rutger Hauer were all FANTASTIC in this film. It was, literally, Stallone's BEST dramatic film. The whole movie is non-stop tension and action, and there is, literally, never a dull moment. If this film got hacked to pieces, I frankly couldn't see it. And the soundtrack being written by Keith Emerson - I am a huge ELP fan - just put it over the top for me. My favorite part in the film is when Stallone bends down to listen to a bandaged Williams as he lies on the gurney, and Williams tells him, "You should have taken the shot." It's poignant, and Stallone's acting is perfect for the character. Detached but stunned - a hard-guy all the way. And that final scene where Wufgar gets his? Between Rutger's facial expressions, the music, and Stallone s-l-o-w-l-y pulling back that wig, it was probably one of the better twists in film history.

I have seen this film on Netflix not too long ago (it’s not there anymore) and it was really good. I enjoyed it without expecting too much of it. Stallone, Williams, and Rutger Hauer did really great jobs in their roles and I am very impressed. Rutger Hauer will always be remembered as Roy Batty from Blade Runner to me but he does a great job playing the villain called, “Wolfgar”. I do not know how to spell his character’s name, sadly. RIP Rutger Hauer 😔 Nighthawks definitely doesn’t get any recognition and I’m glad I watched it with zero expectations as it it really had me on the edge of my seat. Thriller films like this are so exciting and cool, in my book. I wished there was a Director’s Cut for this film, that would be pretty interesting to see. I did hear some talks or rumors that there will be a Director’s Cut for Rocky IV, if I’m not mistaken. I need to see more retro movies like Blind Fury (starring Rutger Hauer) and even Cop Land (starring Sylvester Stallone, Robert De Niro, Ray Liotta) because I have no idea of what I am missing. Retro movies, FTW! Awesome Sauce! 👍

Hi Chris, totally agree that this is an underrated film and and underrated Stallone role. I saw this first during its short cinema release in London in 1981 as a teenager and was blown away. Loved the gritty squalid NY locations (similar to another film from that era - 'Wolfen') and the performances - also worthy of mention is the British actor Nigel Davenport, who played the Counter Terrorist officer who briefs the American cops. As you say, Rutger Hauer, who was unknown outside the Netherlands, gives a standout performance as the charismatic and psychotic Wulfgar. The script was ahead of its time in addressing urban terrorism - the bombings and also when, in the cable car scene Wulfgar refers to his comrades in international terrorist groups while dictating terms. I was really interested to hear about the deleted scenes, deleted soundtrack and that Stallone had a hand in directing the film. Hopefully there will one day be a complete cut on DVD / Bluray.

Love stumbling on reviews of what are old and obscure films in the midst of today's reality when a bewildering number of hundreds of new films inundate streaming sites like Amazon every week it seems. New films which I have no idea if avid film fans even see or knew to have even existed. These new unseen films end up being contemporary obscure films themselves. Too many films to watch, and most are not worth watching is my guess. I love watching films shot in actual film more than digital ones so I gravitate towards older films.

Haven't seen this one since it came out when I was a kid. I think I was just old enough to understand much of what was going on. Unlike what I was accustomed to seeing on TV back then, I recall thinking that anyone could get killed at any time; women, children, priests, nuns, good or bad, guilty or innocent. Anybody! I seemed particularly brutal and intense for the day. I'll have to check it out again. Hope it holds up.

Serious bass rumbles from your mic all the way through this video, @JoBlo. I thought my neighbours were banging about until I took off my headphones.

I remember watching this movie when it came on HBO back in 1983. Okay, I had a teen crush on Billy Dee Williams (seriously, what red-blooded woman DIDN'T?!?!?). I was thirteen when I watched this movie and I LOVED it! Maybe I didn't understand it as well as an adult would have, but the sense of right and wrong, good vs bad, and walking a fine line between all four resonated with me. Some people didn't like this film because it was too violent and gory; but I argue if you want a bad guy redemption film, go watch a Disney movie. So sad to hear there may never be a Director's Cut with the ending this movie deserves, but at least I know it's out there.

I watched it today. I've always loved it. In a writer's aid for writing criminals the author put Hauer's Wulfgar's character as an example for writing for a terrorist. In some ways both the good guy and bad guy have a symbiotic thing going on here. Both crave action which is why they do what they do, but their polar opposites in how they regard humanity. Deke is capable of killing but is a protector, whereas Wulfgar is cold-blooded to the point where he'll flirt with a girl at a counter he knows is going to get killed by his own bomb. Very well acted.

Loved it. Osterman Weekend was another great Rutger Hauer movie.

I totally forgot this movie existed. I only saw it once on cable back in the late 80s, at least I think I did. Stallone's epic beard sticks out in my mind. I guess I'll have to revisit it. Or visit it for the first time.

The released version is a mess but Stallone has never been cooler on film. Overall, it's just a cool little film that doesn't quite work. Gary Nelson would've been a great director on _Nighthawks_ , _The Black Hole_ being oddly violent, atmospheric, & kinda nuts.

I love this movie so much I've watched it for an entire month, day by day, last year xD Wulfgar's theme is so sinister. I cannot understand why it's not on the OST.

People appreciate Sylvester Stallone for either Rambo or Rocky but he has made many good movies like Cobra, Nighthawks, Tango and Cash, Lockup and Daylight and many more

This is one of my favorite movies and it's never on. It's one of Stallone's best. And Rutger is awesome as the bad guy. Great cast. I'm going to have to get it on DVD.

Make sure you get the DVD with the original music instead of the crappy generic music

I saw this in a old empty cinema in around 1983 it was genuinely good. Movies today generally are woeful.
