Crime is the disease and Sylvester Stallone is the cure in Cobra, a high-octane rehash of the Clint Eastwood/Dirty Harry films, burnished to a 1980s action sheen. Stallone is Marion Cobretti, a cop called in when regular police methods have failed. Cobra is sent to get a cult of Charles Manson-like serial killers and to protect Ingrid (Brigitte Nielsen), a beautiful, statuesque witness who is set to testify against them. Cobra deposits Ingrid in an out-of-the-way town for safe-keeping, but a mole in the police department tips off the killers. The gang comes racing into town to get Ingrid, but Cobra is there waiting for them, ready to spring into action. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide

George P. Cosmatos directed Sylvester Stallone in the action film Cobra. The movie comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. An English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround, and Spanish and English soundtracks are available in Dolby Digital Mono. There are no subtitles on the disc, but the English 5.1 track is closed-captioned. Supplemental materials include a commentary track recorded by the director, seven different trailers, and production notes. This low-priced DVD will please fans of the film. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
