Justice. Safe streets. Payback. Metallurgist John Henry Irons (O'Neal) vows to claim them all when a renegade military reject (Nelson) puts new superweapons in dangerous hands. Helped by an electronics wiz (Gish) and an imaginative scrap metal worker (Roundtree), Irons becomes Steel. Wearing body armor, wielding a fearsome electrohammer and riding a gadget-packed motorcycle, he's ready to wage war...if he can fix the untimely glitches in his untested gear.

A very bad DC comics film, and with minimum screen time Claire Stansfield to boot. Her three scenes and three costumes are in the following vein: - she plays a sexy secretary whose assets are her long legs in black stockings - but unfortunately, she's too protective of her boss, so she starts threatening his new partner (which doesn't feel at all sexy when she’s wearing a pantsuit) - which is why the villain kills her quickly in an elevator "accident" (and that's not sexy at all, since she's wearing an outdoor coat). The said villain is Judd Nelson, whose only passable movie was Mr. Rock 'n' Roll: The Alan Freed Story, which is not a whole lot. There's nothing worth talking about here. The rest is all filler.
