Today Matt & Todd take on one of Alan Smithee's finest: 1986’s Let’s Get Harry.

Starring:

• Michael Schoeffling
• Thomas F. Wilson
• Glenn Frey
• Rick Rossovich
• Ben Johnson
• Mark Harmon
• Whit Bissell Award Winner Gary Busey
• and Robert Duvall

The premise is simple: Earnest regular guys hire a mercenary (Duvall) to find proof of a friend brother's kidnapping.

A foundation of solid action, a great performance by Gary Busey and further elevation by Robert Duvall couldn't help this movie become a hit. There's fun to be had here if you're a fan of 80's action even if it isn't near the top of our list.

If you love the era, the vibe, or the “ordinary men on an impossible mission” check it out.
