Plot

In the pulsating heart of New York City, Deke DaSilva (Sylvester Stallone), a tenacious cop with an unparalleled dedication to the decoy squad, repeatedly spurns promotion, preferring to remain on the front lines. Alongside his steadfast partner Matthew Fox (Billy Dee Williams), DaSilva's world is abruptly upended as they're reassigned to an elite anti-terrorist unit, a move that sparks initial hostility within him. This fresh task-force, commanded by a British expert with a sharp intuition, is facing an imminent threat. A notorious international terrorist, shrouded in infamy, has descended upon New York City, his menacing presence promising a whirlwind of chaos. The directive is chillingly clear - shoot to kill, a mandate that unsettles the peace-loving DaSilva. However, as the city they've vowed to protect starts shuddering under the detonation of bombs, DaSilva is forced to reconsider his stance. Stripped of their familiar roles and thrust into unfamiliar territory, DaSilva and Fox must navigate this volatile landscape to halt the impending anarchy. The clock is ticking, and the question hangs heavy - will they rise to the challenge in time to prevent catastrophe? "Nighthawks" (1981) is an adrenaline-laced tale of duty, transformation, and the relentless pursuit of justice, where every second could mean the difference between tranquility and turmoil.
