I would like to say, once again, that while Jim Belushi didn't have John's comedic genius, he IS a better actor than John, who never settled down enough to give a performance.
Jim Belushi was and is a good character actor who had the misfortune to be related to a comic genius who burnt out at a young age.
I just wanted to chime in here that Ed O'Ross was and is one of my favorite character actors, and he sure made his mark in the 80s and in this film. Walter Hill's tight hand on the reins ensures that although it is entertaining, it is not quite campy like many of Arnold's other actioners. I appreciated that.
Also, I'm only now wondering whether the opening fight in any way inspired the similar scene in Eastern Promises.
