Dustin Hoffman gives an Oscar-nominated performance in this comedy, co-starring with Robert De Niro as a professional pair looking to manufacture a war in order to help a shamed president win a re-election.

Patrick Swayze is the arm-folding, ass-kicking, women-charming bouncer of the meanest, loudest and rowdiest bar south of the Mason-Dixon Line in this 1989 brawler.
