Review of Heroes

Heroes (1977)
7/10
Enjoyable buddy picture...
24 October 2008
As with the general consensus, I was shocked to find the omission of "Carry On Wayward Son" by Kansas. Having originally seen this on t.v., the accompanying song had always stuck out in my mind. I assume copyright issues prevented the song from being used. Instead, we are subjected to a tone-deaf inducing song with horrendously awkward lyrics. As a whole, the characters were underdeveloped, and the acting was too laid-back. Winkler ("The Fonz" was one of my childhood heroes) and Field did not give it their all. As a buddy picture, it was an enjoyable watch. Otherwise, I came away with an unfulfilled feeling. Winkler is best suited for comedies.
