Megaforce (1982)

How bad is it? It's like a Burt Reynolds movie without Burt Reynolds.
Should you see it? Unfortunately, no.

Barry Bostwick is terribly miscast as the head of a strike force that wears gold lame' jumpsuits and ride motorcycles. Motorcycles sprout wings. People parachute with motorcycles. The dialogue is awful and Henry Silva, as the bad guy, is not as entertainingly bad as he sometimes can be. The film appears to grow tongue-in-cheek, as if everyone realized part way through filming that this was not going to work as an action film. The budget was supposedly $27 million.
