Over the Top (1987)
7/10
Meet Sly Halfway
12 June 2014
So you think you've seen every movie about an arm wrestling truck driver absentee father road trip-bonding with his son who's just graduated from military school? Well, think again. This is one of Sylvester Stallone's most underrated movies. It gets a lot of flack because the premise sounds so ridiculous but it's actually a good little drama with some nice action of the arm wrasslin' variety. One of Cannon's more polished films. You'll learn everything you need to know about the power of wearing one's cap backwards and the eternal question of who exactly will the world meet halfway. Also some great rockin' tunes from the '80s! What's not to like about this movie?
