| 46% | Red Dawn (1984) |
It packs plenty of rabble-rousing ammunition, but its sloppy execution is unlikely to win any merit badges for marksmanship. ‐ Hollywood Reporter

| 97% | Lost in America (1985) |
Too often, things are simply too painfully accurate to be particularly funny. Still, it's hard to fault Brooks' resolutely adult intelligence, and Lost in America - almost in spite of itself, really - is easily his most consistently amusing work to date.‐ Hollywood Reporter

| 84% | Beverly Hills Cop (1984) |
This lickety-split action comedy is distinguished by the wry, character-conscious direction of Martin Brest, who coaxes a silver-bullet performance from star Eddie Murphy that's practically criminal in its accuracy.‐ Hollywood Reporter

| 100% | The Terminator (1984) |
