    Kind of OK. I guess Clark got tired of Porky's at this stage.

    Not too bad 80's rebellion movie. Timothy Hutton does excellent work here.

    From Bob Clark, the man who gave us Porky's, Porky's II, Rhinestone, and A Christmas Story (talk about running the gamut) comes the story of Jimmy Lynch, a young man who tries to get justice for his firefighter brother when he's injured trying to rescue a little girl from a burni...( read more)ng building, while off duty. He wages a graffiti war against the mayor of New York City, who may have covered up for a corrupt political ally. In doing so, he becomes a folk hero to the people of the city. Timothy Hutton stars as Jimmy, aka "Turk 182". Kim Cattrall is a social worker who joins in his fight. Robert Urich co-stars as Jimmy's injured brother, who's so disturbed over his ordeal that actaully attempts suicide. Peter Falk and Darren McGavin are the detectives hot on Jimmy's trail. It may sound heavy handed, but it's actually lighter than it sounds. Hutton makes Jimmy extremely likeable, and you can't help but root for him. Clark creates a real feel for NYC by making use of many landmarks including Giants Stadium and the Queensboro Bridge. A good time movie.

    Shiiiit, and SHIT! are two of the best lines for the mayor's chief of security and the mayor (Robert Culp). The best scene is the stadium scoreboard with the apple scratching its head thinking hard, followed by the clue "who flew?".

    When this came out I was still young enough to enjoy the nonsense of the idea. Fight the city by defacing it -but for a noble cause??!
    The tagging story bigins here, is that right?
