Review of Escape from L.A. (1996) by Josè M — 03 Aug 2014
Fun B action movie with A graphics (For the time). The story is pretty much Escape from New York recycled with a few more laughs in it. Some scenes in it are pretty much downright ridiculous, but I can't fault the movie for it's 80s feel manufactured in the 80s.
Watching the film, you'll know what I'm referring to- the surfing scene, the basketball scene, the hang gliding... the movie seems to be shorter on fire power than the previous one and actually seems to have more of a cultural message than it is entertainment.
A decent multitasking movie (e.g. laundry folding, knitting, etc...) or if you have friends that like to pick apart movies a la MST3K with you.
