Iron Eagle is the story of an Air Force brat whose father has been shot down and held hostage in a foreign land. Some teenagers might wait for our government to negotiate, but metal-loving Doug Masters knows this is a waste of time.
Masters and his band of teenage friends plan a mission that involves stealing a plane and invading a country. A similar idea was explored in the same year in the movie “Let’s Get Harry”, but with less Airplanes, teenagers and 80’s rock.
Takeaways;
- a small plane and dirt bike race proves that they travel at the same speed.
- tape decks are awesome.
