Missing in Action (1984)

[10/10 · 20 September 2021]

Essentially Missing in Action must be understood as a Cold War legacy. Back then, Western culture was slowly penetrating communist societies, especially in Eastern Europe. So of course the producers wanted to make money, but those movies would inspire societies to see America as the nation most concerned with freedom, and Soviet Union and its allies as the villains of the day.

I had lots of fun watching it and would recommend to any Cold War fan like ke.
