Would you like to swing on a star?

Bruce Willis may be mdisappointed by this movie, but our family isn’t. I grew up with this being a super fun movie, bought it as an adult, and still enjoy it. Not for kids, but high school age and up should have fun with the adventure and nonsensical action. Don’t expect ‘Die Hard’, but expect a fun and entertaining movie.

If you are looking for something with deep meaning and full of personal revelation - WRONG MOVIE! If you are looking for abject silliness and actual giggle worthiness - then you have the right movie. Its silly, irreverent, satirical, and just plain fun. This is the movie you watch when you just plain had a lousy week and wanna forget for a little while. Granted, I have to be in a certain mindset to watch it - but it is definitely worth at least a look. Check it out and decide for yourself.

Great cheap no frills blu ray of an absurdist classic

One of those classic chessy movies that I always watched on cable in the 90s. Saw it again today and its still a fun film. Blu ray wise, its very bare bones. No commentary, special features, digital code or regular dvd. Plus amazon is very arrogant about the fact that dvds are collectables, so expect the slipcover to be damaged. Transfer is likely from the dvd source just upscaled. No restoring. Still lots of grain and dirt but a definite improvement over a standard dvd. Something I dont mind because it matches the look of the period without looking overly cleaned up and digital. The sound is crystal clear though. Despite how bare bones it is its nice to finally own an hd version of a classic flick.

As a child of the 90s, I have fond memories of browsing the shelves of my local video rental store, searching for the latest action-packed blockbuster to watch on my trusty VHS player. So when I stumbled upon the Hudson Hawk - Retro VHS Style release on Amazon, I couldnt resist the opportunity to relive those nostalgic memories. From the moment the movie started playing, I was transported back in time to a simpler era where Bruce Willis was the king of the silver screen and action movies were all about having fun. Hudson Hawk doesnt take itself too seriously, and thats part of its charm. Its a silly, over-the-top adventure thats more concerned with delivering laughs and thrills than telling a coherent story. But what really makes this release stand out is the retro VHS packaging. The artwork on the cover and the tape itself is an homage to the classic video releases of the 80s and 90s. Its a perfect addition to any collection of vintage movies, or just a great way to display your love for all things retro. Of course, the picture and sound quality of the actual movie are not on par with modern releases, but thats to be expected. The grainy, slightly distorted picture and the occasional audio dropout only add to the overall charm of the experience. Its like watching a movie on an old, well-loved VHS tape thats been played a hundred times before. In conclusion, if youre a fan of Bruce Willis, action movies, or just want to relive the glory days of the VHS era, Hudson Hawk - Retro VHS Style is a must-have addition to your collection. Its a fun, entertaining movie that will transport you back in time and put a smile on your face. Highly recommended!

Why do so many people seem to expect every movie that comes out to be some sort of artistic triumph? Cant they just enjoy a movie for what it was intended to be, i.e.: just plain fun? I seriously doubt the producers of this film ever had any intentions of it being an Oscar-winner in ANY catagory. They simply wanted to make a movie that people could sit back and relax, let go, and just laugh at. Okay, so the artsy-fartsy crowd doesnt like it. Thats fine, cause I dont like them, either. Pretentious, self-serving, hideously obscure, and mind-numbingly boring this movie is NOT, but that seems to be what the critics consider a good motion picture. Sorry, folks, but I enjoy being entertained, not educated all the time. Sometimes you just want to read a comic book, not a great classic novel. Sometimes you want to watch Bugs Bunny cartoons, not 60 Minutes. Sometimes you want to watch a movie for fun, not to be elevated. THAT is what Hudson Hawk is all about!
