![]() ![]() You could argue that's not bad for a song that had reviews such as The AV Club's: "The lyrics are laughable, and the heavy-handed synths and piano riffs come dangerously close to cheese."Īnd now it is in The Super Mario Bros Movie. It's also in the trailers for Pokemon: Detective Pikachu and Netflix's Masters Of The Universe: Revelation, but luckily didn't make it onto either soundtrack. There's even a fun nod to the song in Lethal Weapon 2 as Mel Gibson's tough cop Martin Riggs hears the song on TV (in an advert for a fragrance called Hero) just before his trailer home – complete with a bottle of the stuff on his kitchen counter – is blown to smithereens by the bad guys.īut that's more than enough uses of the song on movie soundtracks for the rest of time.ĭid 'Holding Out For A Hero' also need to be in The Angry Birds Movie 2 during an action montage? Or in Loki(episode two of the first season if you really must hear it again), the Cate Blanchett/Bruce Willis movie Bandits, kids' comedy Short Circuit 2 or Jack Black's Nacho Libre? (And we're not even listing the numerous other TV shows and adverts it has been it because, well, we've had enough of it already).
