Critics consensus

“A disengaged Sylvester Stallone plays the titular Cobra with no bite in this leaden action thriller, queasily fixated on wanton carnage and nothing else.”

The movie is such a textbook example of an exploitation cop movie that you can outline it like a schoolboy for easy reference...

Cobra is a sleek, extremely violent and exciting police thriller.

It's fast-paced and full of gaudy action, yet it's thoroughly unsatisfying, largely because it's so lazy.

What sets Cobra apart from the aforementioned Raw Deal, however, is how director George P. Cosmatos indulges horror conventions alongside the more obvious crime elements.
