Hudson Hawk (1991)

I don't care what anyone says, I will defend this action-comedy's greatness until the end of time. It's ridiculous and over-the-top, yet it endears itself by never taking itself seriously. I've watched Hudson Hawk more times than I can count and while it's not perfect it's definitely different, highly quotable, and thoroughly entertaining.
