Nighthawks (1981) - Part 7

[MrLimborace]

Run Wolfie, run!!!!

[akear]

This is a great foot chase scene with an excellent sound track.

[sosdkny]

POST 9/11, Stallone and Billy D would have smashed Rutger down to the ground and ask questions later!!

[wncoulte]

That was fantastic directing (the two locked momentarily in that intimate, but deadly stare) ... but horrible cop-work on the writers part. lol

[buzzclick500]

One of Stallone's lamest films. Rutger Hauer's presence made it watchable.

[squall600]

stallone: WULGAR!!!!!!!!!!!! best moment ever when he surprised him the end.

[jackyboy777666]

04:47 GREATEST EYE STANDOFF EVER! Stallone, Hauer + Crap music = BLISS!

[trbrooks34]

I'll bet that woman who was shot in the back (assuming she lived, of course) said, "I'll never come back to this fucking club again!"

[liquid49286]

Post 9/11 that guy would have been beat down on the subway- knife or no knife

[CesMan83]

@liquid49286

I'm a New Yorker, and I will vouch for that! I'd join in on the beat-down, haha

[XLynnXFernoX]

At 1:16 and 1.38 im sure thats also Rutger Hauer playing different people in the club so you're thinking "There's Wulfgar" "There he is again" It's his spitting image!

[wolfengheist]

This movie is awesome Stallone looks out of the ordinary in this role.

[CorruptedSeducer]

They don't make movies like this anymore...

[nycdweller]

Stallone was so GREAT looking in this movie

[MrAug80]

Brillant the disco scene with the original music!! Thanks so much for posting this!!

[psychodelicrock12]

They had 2 different songs during this scene when the cops spotted Wulfgar at the club. I wonder why they changed them.

[psychodelicrock12]

@psychodelicrock12 I remember the two songs they played when the cops spotted Wulfgar when I started watching this in 1986. I really miss hearing those songs. If I find the orginal VHS from the eighties, I gonna buy it to have those songs.

[elevatorsfan]

@psychodelicrock12 one of them went "Walking down the avu, watching people watching you" I can't find out anything about this tune! Help!?

[mm091540]

how gloriously they fucked up. shouting wulfgar in the club, shooting at nothing, not circling him in in the subway, not calling for back-up, not getting on the train fast enough. "the best" they are...

[serpentinecreature]

I felt that stare of recognition down in my toes! Thank you.

[KnightOwl2006]

They must have been riding the nostalgia subway train there. By 1981 those subways cars were long gone.

[chriskehoe007]

This scene was one of the best in the movie the laser like focuse stare of Stallone when he zeros in on Wolfgar was excellent.

[mikemisco1]

stallones eyes looked stoned..i little toke in the car??

[FylthyBeest]

@mikemisco1 I would respectfully disagree. This is probably one of the best acted yet least noted, noticed, and acknowledged films Stallone appeared in. His eyes were clear, sharp, and focused when he zeroed in on Wulfgar.

[BLAYDZ99]

oh jeez, i just realized something, Wolf is the guy who is Hutch off of the show called Starsky & Hutch in about this time period

[FylthyBeest]

@BLAYDZ99 Wulfgar is played by Rutger Hauer, not David Soul (the original Starsky and Hutch).

[TRKoneAD2]

DVD killed this movie scene

[bjroberts65]

This scene was filmed at club Zenons on 43rd street between 6th and 7th ave's in NYC....Did a lot of hanging out there from 84 to 88, wish i was old enough back in 80 to be there for this scene....No doubt this movie is in my top 5 FAVORITE and BEST movies of ALLTIME!!!

[monsta64]

Continuity flaw: didn't DeSilva say earlier: "I don't know if I could take the shot with innocent people around..." DUH! Then why did he call out the name of a ruthless terrorist in the middle of a crowded disco?? DeSilva and Fox could have followed him and busted him when he got to where he was staying.

[FylthyBeest]

@monsta64 Huh? First, he didn't shoot. Second and most important, he was learning exactly what truly needs to be done with these shitboxes.

[monsta64]

@FylthyBeest No shit! Where in my post did I say that DeSilva shot? I was quoting a line he said to the British Intelligence Agent that was training him to fight Wolfgar and the agent brought up DaSilva''s Vietnam record when DaSilva said: "I don't know if I could take the shot with people around..."

I still say they should just followed him back to where he was staying & take him out there without civilians around. Calling him out in a packed club bought one club patron a bullet in the back.

[FylthyBeest]

@monsta64 You never said DeSilva shot. And, I never said that you said that DeSilva shot. Okay? DeSilva may have lost Wulfgar trying to follow him. At least calling him out in the club was an option. The best option? Who knows. It's a movie. But, for you to get mad at me is absolutely pointless. I'm just another fan of this great movie.

[bjroberts65]

SLY is GOD!!!

[spicnspanish]

And that's why they have metal detectors in clubs now. It was all Wulfgar's fault!

[FylthyBeest]

@spicnspanish You're damned right! I agree with spicnspanish.

[fortesque123]

@4:30... it's great how the director builds that intensity between Stallone and Hauer. No words exchanged... just a closeup on both faces, with music blasting. Great scene.

[drobin3149]

Ah, the last days of disco - also the last days of Rutger Hauer as Lestat :(

[Wildcock23]

@3:45 - Classic, underrated scene

[brazil2000ful]

Rutger Hauer is my favorite actor :DDDDDD but i dont like the netherland soccer team cuz they play rough and dirty, like im not hating on holland is that the dutch soccer players play dirty >:(((((((((

[nantata]

Only in the movies..... hundreds of clubs in ny, our heroes walk into one and presto, their target is there. Lol

[swastikausa]

well its policework. Put the word out to the snitches that theyre looking for a well dressed foreigner who likes a certain type of younger woman. And the best snitches are always bartenders and hotel concierges.

[mrmack12031976]

5:05 is the climax of the movie. Stallone Yelling out to" Wulfgar", to Hauer is a movie moment that will always be classic.

[swastikausa]

in real life though probably not the best tactic to shout out terrorists name in middle of crowded nightclub. If it were moscow instead of new york police sniper would be upstairs waiting to take shot on dekes order.

[jerryscullion]

The song after Brown Sugar, in the "Staredown" between Stallone and Hauer, is "I'm a Man" by Keith Emerson. Great Movie - one of the best scenes!!!!!!!!

[x05e]

@jerryscullion Thanks for that info on the music. I rented a copy of this and they removed both those tracks with some "non-commercial" music...totally changed the intensity of the staredown.

[jerryscullion]

@x05e I have an mp3 of that song if you'd like it - let me know, And I'll send it to you

[CesMan83]

"WULFGAR!!"

[thefoppa1000]

Brown Sugar works great here.

[christianbeardall]

Great Scene from a great movie, one of stallones most under ratted over looked films.
