A pilot for a short-lived TV series about motorcycle-cop Jesse Mach (
Rex Smith), a man with a "test pilot mentality" who gets injured in the line of duty but finds new purpose as a well-funded anonymous do-gooder named Street Hawk! The bike can reach speeds of 300 mph, which, on public roads is as ridiculous (or as amazing) as it sounds. The action is packed with clichés, including tons of empty cardboard boxes on side streets that cars scatter dramatically as they roar through them in hot pursuit of speeding bad guys. While not as good as the 12 episode series that ultimately followed, if you're a fan of 80s stuff you may have some limited fun. It won't take up much of your time; despite being called 'The Movie' it's only about 70 minutes long.
