Roy Scheider passed away on February 10, 2008. He was an actor who's presence always added greatly to any production. This is certainly the case with Blue Thunder, which would have had less of an impact without his performance. The 80's were a great time for big "B-MOVIES". Blue Thunder plays like an episode of the A-Team or Knight Rider on steroids. If you like your action films with an 80's "escapist" style, then Blue Thunder will deliver the goods. Those who are put off by nudity or strong language may be surprised by some of the content. So be warned if you have only seen the edited TV version. If you enjoy this film, seek out the short lived TV series, also available on DVD. The character of Frank Murphy (Scheider) is replaced by Frank Chaney (James Farentino). The Character of Richard Lymangood (Daniel Stern) was changed to Clinton Wonderlove (Dana Carvey, in an early starring role). Make sure you get this "special edition" and not the older DVD version. Lots of good special features! JM
