Iron Eagle was one of my favorite films as I grew up in the '80s. It had everything: terrific aerial sequences involving F-16 fighters, great '80s pop rock music, cheesy acting, annoying kids and a hero who did something amazing.

I recently finished watching Airwolf Season Two, so I thought I'd write a review about the episodes. Some of them I had seen in the previous Playback "selected" volume releases.
