Cobra Eats Pizza - Action-Packed Cobra Movie Review - Intense - Must Watch - Sylvester Stallone Movies

Before we even hit the minute mark, we had a Christian Slater impression ( he was super famous in the 80s and now he is Mr. Robot ), a few Pee-Wee Herman jokes, and some hilarious banter with seedy content.

TONIGHT’S MOVIE IS COBRA. An ultra cop or Dirty Harry on steroids nicknamed COBRA because his last name is something like COBRETTI … if you will… has to protect a witness from ax-wielding cult members.  The leader is called The Night Slasher, which references The Night Stalker.

Stallone was originally slated to make Beverly Hills Cop but saw it as a gritty movie rather than a comedy. When he left he took the ideas for that movie and put them into Cobra.

The movie had to be heavily cut to avoid an X Rating. Most of this was for violence and extended shots of naked dead bodies at an autopsy. A bootleg with an extra 40min has been floating around for years.

The 1950 Mercury was actually Stallone’s and replicas had to be made for action scenes.

Initially considered a flop, it actually made $160 million worldwide against a $25 million budget. But when compared to the massive success of Rambo Part 2 and Rocky IV it was deemed a failure.

Second movie George P Cosmatos and Stallone worked on together after Rambo Part 2.

Our favorite bits from Cobra include: how Cobra eats pizza, how different Cobra is from Stallone’s other heroic characters, and the atmosphere this movie creates.

One of our fans listened to us talk about Boss Level and then said he watched it only for Mel Gibson’s appearance.
