I have never seen this movie. My mom was watching it this morning...somehow I think I have a built in 80s radar dector...because I knew in 2 seconds, that it was an 80s movie, and one I would like-even if I had never seen it.
I watched about 1/2 an hour of it. I liked when he raced the guy on the motor cycle- I loved the song that was playing, does anyone know what it is?
I think Jason Gedrick was really cute...I looked him up-he still is cute.
I thought...Oh my gosh- that's Tommy from Valley Girl,(the guy that rode the motorcycle)...and I looked it up to make sure- and it was.
I always liked Melora Hardin too, she was in alot of Disney stuff.
I think I want to buy this movie and watch it the whole way through. The guy that played the father was good looking too_i have to check him out-since I am closer to his age now-that he was in the movie.
I recognized the one guy from Revenge of the Nerds too.
I never realized they made sequels to this movie.
The stunts with the flying and the motorcycle were amazing, I can't believe they filmed that whole scene, without someone getting killed.

You couldn't make this kind of film anymore, climaxing with half a foreign country being blown up good, even if their leaders really deserve it. But even in today's testier world, it's still a nice picture that keeps you hooked through.

I liked when the one guy was talking about the Presidents, and he said that we use to have "Mr. Peanut" ...now we have Ronnie "Ray-GUN".

I have Iron Eagle I & II dvd´s. Both are good movies but the first one is better as usual.
I believe that the song ISIS asked is "Old Enough to Rock ´n Roll" by Rainey Haynes. The song is not on the soundtrack.

Yeah...that's the song. I never heard of it. I like it.
Good propaganda, rubbish flick. Jason Geddrick is a cool actor (not in this movie though). I'd cite The Last Don parts I & II as his best work.

You just gave me Kashlash......my fav Jason Gedrick role is by far "The Heavenly Kid". I thought he was good in "Backdraft" as well.
It enjoyed "Iron Eagle" and flying a jet while listening to a little Queen is highly recommended. Also, cool to see a very young looking Shawnee Smith as one of the Air Force bratpack.
