Watch Nails For Free

just watch it!

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

This is a low-class film with low-class, profane characters. Many times that spells death to whether I like the film but in this case, not so. That's because Dennis Hopper (perfect for profane, sick roles) is entertaining and the story moves at a brisk pace. There simply are not any dry spots. I always like to look at Anne Archer, too.However, you can overdo the swearing, and that's the case here, and the usual modern-day clichés are here (i.e. the police captain fires the cop, who is the hero; Rambo-type action in which the good guys never get hit while the bad guys always do, etc.) Those things downgrade this film to an average crime movie, which means it's still worth a look - especially if you like Hopper - but rent it before buying it.

This was the most clichéd and predictable cop/tough-guy/partner movie ever made. The throw-away films of Norris, Van Damme, Seagal, Stallone, and Schwarzenegger have plots that seem labyrinthine compared to this.Starting with the film title, "tough" sounding nickname/surname, if you can think of a cliché in an action movie, it is used in this one. It just seems that Larry Ferguson farmed the writing out to a first year class studying film conventions and plot telegraphing. Cookie-cutter main character? Check. Partner? Check. Superior? Check. "I'll get you yet" rival of main character? Check. Villain? Check. Storyline? And how! Hopper should have let this one pass him by.

Yes, this movie has its faults, BUT, if you just want to have a good time, see some nakedness and generally enjoy life, Nails isn't a bad way to go. Its got some flashbacks, some guy showering with a dog, and various other interesting scenes. Hey, we can't all be perfect and for those of us who are far from that, Nails was made.

The brief view: Anne Archer - wooden as ever. Dennis Hopper - over the top as usual, it almost pathetic to see him resort to all of the cliche'd devices of a so-called out of control cop. Companion movie to Hopper's "Backtrack", both of which are awful.
