Review of The Warriors (1979) by Riff J — 09 Feb 2016

I understand that it was entertaining and thrilling in the 70's, but I unfortunately had to watch it in 2015, and time did not treat this movie well. No, I don't hate on all old movies, or lack an appreciation for classics.

.. rather the opposite. I'm generally left saying "Ah, the good old days" after watching a dated classic. But The Warriors just seemed to lack any riveting action, suspense or enjoyment. Hey, may be that's what today's generation would say about a classic Halloween (which is one of my fav movies of all time), so admittedly, "to each their own".

If you're not into classics, be forewarned that this isn't Blood In Blood Out, or Boyz N Da Hood, etc. Not even close.
