As a lifetime avid pool player I enjoyed The Color of Money. Unfortunately it was not nearly as good as The Hustler, which preceded it. Good acting by Paul Newman, and decent by Tom Cruise and M.E. Mastrantonio. Slightly over written, but a semi-classic.

IMO the best movie of '86 was Hannah and Her Sisters. Great performances from all, good writing and directing by Woody Allen. One of his best.

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
