Jake Speed (1986)
More than a myth. Less than a legend. And a bit too big for his boots
19 votes on TMDBReleased May 30, 1986Runtime 1h 40mDirector Andrew Lane
Jake Speed (Wayne Crawford) is the lead character in some of the biggest page-turners of the 1940s. A chiseled, heroic action figure, Speed saves lives on paper, but when a young girl is kidnapped and her sister (Karen Kopins) begs the real-life Speed for help, he must find a way to be as gallant as the book hero whose creation he's inspired. Accompanied by the victim's sibling, Speed flies to Africa to see if he's up to the task.
