the eighty and some of my favorite movie have come from this time and most of them fail to find an audience . such film a buckaroo banzai and street of fire and radioactive dream find new way to tell classic story and over the year street and banzai have both develop cult following but sadly radioactive dream have never be able to find it fan base . it may be because it have never be release on dvd and it could be the terrible music number that grind the movie to a halt just when the excitement should be build but perhaps it be just too odd . the story be the standard hard boil detective yarn with the dick try to play several side against each other and discover the danger of put their trust in the wrong person . at least it would be standard if not for the post apocalyptic setting and the fact that our hero have spend almost their entire life lock up in a bomb shelter and have pick up all they know about the world from read detective novel . these change allow the character to actually grow from kid play a game to two guy try not to become cynic in the face of a world be everyone only consider their own best interest and everyone be expendable . one of the problem with the film for first time viewer be the way that the tone change from a pretty light hearted begin to a much darker conclusion . when watch it the second time the shift do not take you off guard and you can just appreciate the film . if i have make it sound more serious than it be i apologize . it be a fun and very entertaining entry in the post apoc genre and need a dvd release so it have a chance at build new fan .
