neutral · AI labelView post →I’ve just been watching Hudson Hawk on Sky Cinema. I still stand by my opinion that it’s not a bad movie, and is actually an awful lot of fun. Please keep following me for more controversial hot takes.
positive · AI labelView post →Hudson Hawk was a good movie. I will not be taking questions at this time.
positive · AI labelView post →Watching Hudson Hawk, a film about the world’s most autistic action hero: a cat burglar so cool that he has memorised the exact running times of a lot of old jazz songs
neutral · AI labelView post →Looking at the "List of biggest box office bombs" on Wikipedia, I think Hudson Hawk may be the best example of a movie I loved that "bombed." (Still think the problem was that they marketed it to Die Hard fans instead of Moonlighting fans.)
positive · AI labelView post →Stopped by Brain Dead Studios where our horror film will have its Los Angeles premiere this Saturday July 18th. It will look like this except the marquee will say DEAD MEDIA instead of Hudson Hawk. Tix here: studios.wearebraindead.com/movies/dead-...
neutral · AI labelView post →I love that this has been shared by the screenwriter of Hudson Hawk. How did that film flop? It’s so fun!
neutral · AI labelView post →What movie do you think isn’t nearly as bad as people say? 🎬 IMO… ‘Hudson Hawk’ 🖤
neutral · AI labelView post →Just did our annual re-watch of Hudson Hawk. Which is a terrible movie, but also a perfect movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just watched Hudson Hawk. I think it is the stupidest film I've ever seen in my life. It didn't know if it wanted to be slapstick, a gangster movie, a thriller, or a comedy. Richard E Grant left bite marks in the set. #LateReview
negative · AI labelView post →I want to say Hudson Hawk, saw it in the theatre and bought the soundtrack cassette, but ppl have come around to its greatness. So I'll have to go with Jupiter Ascending, the greatest movie of 1985.
positive · AI labelView post →#NowWatching: Hudson Hawk (1991) I know 2 things about the film: it's based on a song Bruce Willis learned in a bar, & it's got a running joke about wanting a cappuccino. Oh, and it's bad. I know that, too, so 3 things. I've been watching too many good #movies. The 🌎's not all good #FilmSky 📽️
negative · AI labelView post →My new favourite movie is Hudson Hawk I will not be taking questions thank you
positive · AI labelView post →I’m hosting a 35th anniversary screening of the film that made me ask my wife to marry me - HUDSON HAWK! I’ll be chatting with filmmakers Dan Waters and Michael Lehman at Brain Dead Studios on Fairfax - Mon July 13th at 7:30….or would you rather be a mule? studios.wearebraindead.com/movies/hudso...
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't know why I said Hudson Hawk, the chick who is Cassa Andor's mom figure, she was in Undercover Blues. Also a hugely underrated and amazing film
neutral · AI labelView post →- Hudson Hawk - Kentucky Fried Movie (multiple stupid plots) - Airplane 2 (1 actually had pretty common “disaster movie” plot for the time) - Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure
neutral · AI labelView post →Tomorrow, Sen. Schmitt (the bed) will falsely accuse Jack Smith of appearing in the film Hudson Hawk, which if true, actually would be grounds for charging Smith with a variety of felonies.
neutral · AI labelView post →I picked Hudson Hawk kind of at random and what the fuck, this movie is unhinged
neutral · AI labelView post →I inherit a movie theater: The first double feature is Goodfellas / My Blue Heaven The first film fest weekend is War Games The Manhattan Project Project X Real Genius Sneakers Midnight Movies start the following weekend with Hudson Hawk
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm not keeping this inside anymore: Hudson Hawk was Bruce Willis's best movie, you just didn't understand it
positive · AI labelView post →You cannot have a discussion about actors giving far more than a movie of questionable merit deserved without mentioning Sandra Bernhard and Richard E. Grant in "Hudson Hawk" (1991). They really went for it.
neutral · AI labelView post →I think Hudson Hawk was seriously underrated. A flawed movie but it took some real risks
positive · AI labelView post →I maintain that the movie Hudson Hawk does not merely indulge in hack writing, gimmicks, tropes, and unnecessary pop culture references, but cogently satirizes those things.
positive · AI labelView post →What an oddball assortment of movies this week. I'm not sure it's right to call Hudson Hawk a 4 star movie, but I enjoyed it 4 stars worth, so that's what it gets. Anyways, you should all go see Little Amélie. #Filmsky #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday 📽️
positive · AI labelView post →I make little jokes about Hudson Hawk here and there but make no mistake I think it is a good weird movie. Some people see it as a So Bad It’s Good one but I do not I think it’s just a fun motion picture starring Bruce Willis
positive · AI labelView post →We’re doing a 90s Bruce Willis series and I know you’re worried we won’t show Hudson Hawk BUT in fact we have two screenings of it on 35mm! It’ll be my first time seeing it not as an “always playing on comedy central on Saturday afternoons in the early 00s” kinda casual viewing movie
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't do #LastFourWatched for #LetterboxdFriday, bc @letterboxd.social is a garbage, whore company that hates its users. I found a better way! 🤓 Plus a #ReelRank #Last5Watched is 1 better than LB's Last 4. End of Oak Street, Monuments Men, Hudson Hawk, Flow & Dirty Rotten Scoundrels #FilmSky 📽️

positive · AI labelView post →Happy #LetterboxdFriday! What's YOUR #LastFourWatched? Hudson Hawk Real Steel Battle of the Bulge Sherlock Holmes: a Game of Shadows All rewatches this week. Hudson Hawk an old favorite. And Real Steel exceeded my expectations.
positive · AI labelView post →Happy #LetterboxdFriday! What's YOUR #LastFourWatched? Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 Joe vs the Volcano Hudson Hawk Dam Busters Guardians gave a tearful ending. Joe vs the Volcano I hadn't seen in years. I unironically love Hudson Hawk. Dam Busters inspired the trench run in Star Wars. #Letterboxd
positive · AI labelView post →Name a movie that flopped at the box office but is actually great: According to Wikipedia, Hudson Hawk lost $50million in 1991 money, and that just isn't right. youtu.be/lb3Qgziho0U?...
neutral · AI labelView post →What's a movie you genuinely enjoy that's known for being bad? Hudson Hawk. It's loud and dumb in 90s blockbuster style but it's also overstuffed with legitimately fun ideas. There are multiple heist scenes that are also musical numbers. www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6WX...
neutral · AI labelView post →I do not give a flying fuck what anyone else says, "Hudson Hawk" is a great movie. I will fight you.
positive · AI labelView post →🎬 ReelRank Team Meeting! We weigh in on Hudson Hawk. Some call it the worst film ever made. Others think it's an absurdist gem. Our first-ever writing collab tackles one of cinema's most infamous flops: blog.reelrank.net/how-bad-is-h... Read it on ReelRank News. ☝️ #FilmSky #HudsonHawk
neutral · AI labelView post →Like LEONARD, HUDSON HAWK is indulgent and smug and a testament to a movie star's ego. Unlike LEONARD, HUDSON HAWK features Richard E. Grant and Sandra Bernhard as the most despicable billionaire morons in history. Victory: HUDSON HAWK, easily.
positive · AI labelView post →Show some love for Bruce Willis ❤️ Hudson Hawk was my favorite Bruce Willis movie 💕
positive · AI labelView post →What's cool about Hudson Hawk is that it features several of the most conceptually horrifying kills I've ever seen in a movie and the heroes are just doing bits about it the entire time
positive · AI labelView post →Cider flight…and a Hudson Hawk. I couldn’t not get it (Yes, the bartender said it’s a movie reference)
neutral · AI labelView post →Hudson Hawk is a stone cold MASTERPIECE of a movie. I laughed out loud multiple times.An Oddball 80s comedy flick in 1991. Genius. Cannot believe I hadn't seen it. Rekindling my love for Bruce Willis. Great movie. Simply brilliant. The cast and characters are hilarity. #Goodnight
positive · AI labelView post →I'm a bit late to the party for this week's #RandomGameSaturday. Stuck my hand in the loose GB carts box and out popped Hudson Hawk! Kusoge to some, but I love this game and the film it's based on. Yh the main character looks more like cool Frankenstein than Bruce Willis, but the gameplay is there.
positive · AI labelView post →Hudson Fucking Hawk. Yes. We should all watch Hudson Hawk tonight. Why? Because it fucking rocks that's why. Definitely Bruce Willis best film (I mean it's not but let's pretend for the purpose of this post).
positive · AI labelView post →"It was Movie Night. We watched Black Hawk Down, Hudson Hawk, and Ladyhawke."
neutral · AI labelView post →What is a movie you've seen a million times but will watch a million more? For me one of them is Hudson Hawk 🖤
positive · AI labelView post →The Movies In Focus film library... The Bruce Willis section. Yes, Hudson Hawk really does deserve to be in there twice!
positive · AI labelView post →At least we're getting some nice footage of Rome #HudsonHawk 📺 #MondayActionMovie
neutral · AI labelView post →Always been partial to the HUDSON HAWK novelization. A great read and an underrated movie. It's by Charles L. Grant, one of my all-time favorite writers, under a pseudonym that he also used for a series of very fun adventure novels.
positive · AI labelView post →I watched Hudson Hawk on VHS at my grandparents' place. It was undeniably stupid, but great fun. The mascot platformer video game adaptation was surprisingly good fun, too. Stuck closer to the plot of the film than you'd think.
neutral · AI labelView post →Now watching Hudson Hawk. I figured this would be a good way to take a break between Chantal Akerman films #Filmsky 📽️
neutral · AI labelView post →You won't be dying alone on the Hudson Hawk hill! It's a really fun movie. 🎵🎶 Oh we ain't got a barrel of money … 🎶🎵
positive · AI labelView post →#HudsonHawk I never saw the film but my mom said it was funny she was a huge fan of Bruce Willis my mom wasn't sure if the film was supposed to be funny or not the game however was not fun I used savestates to finish it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5Nj... #nes #RetroGaming #RetroGames

neutral · AI labelView post →I’ll die on the hill that Hudson Hawk was a great film if you watch it realizing it’s basically live action Looney Toons. I still love it. “Looks like someone won’t be attending that hat convention in July!”
positive · AI labelView post →Nobody on set were confident about the film. Joe Pantoliano said that everyone thought the film was a dud, Tommy Lee Jones thought it was going to end his career, and Harrison Ford said he was worried that the film would be his Hudson Hawk. 28/34
neutral · AI labelView post →Seriously Hudson Hawk is a charming movie. What a killer ensemble cast too.
positive · AI labelView post →Just saw some other movie with the guy from Hudson Hawk turns out he was a ghost the whole time

neutral · AI labelView post →I'm too hot, the world is too serious...so I'm going to rewatch Hudson Hawk. It's not the best film in the world, but it's silly & ok. Not seen it in over 10yrs I suspect. I like the premise that you can keep to time by singing a song of the length of time you need....if you have good rhythm. 😂
