The best part of the movie was whenever Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor had a screen together! They were movie magic together!

A very solid effort for the comedic duo of Wilder and Pryor.

Silver Streak looks perfect on paper, I mean how could you lose with the Pryor/Wilder pairing? The problem is rather than blending the genres perfectly, it stumbles with them. You could feel that movie is unsure what it wants to be. It's not funny enough to be a comedy, and it doesn't have big enough sequences to be a good action/thriller. So it just ends up being a bland amalgamation of the two.

The ending is very spectacular
