- PLOT:
A gang of street toughs gets blamed for assassinating a messianic gang leader, forcing them to battle their way back home from the Bronx to Coney Island.
- EVALUATION:
A truly bizarre action film about commuting that never manages to deliver on the propulsive energy of its opening credits, featuring one of the ugliest casts ever to populate a major theatrical release and flamboyant gang outfits galore.
- WRITING:
The writing doesn't really try to elevate the material, which is probably for the best.
- FILMING:
Plenty of great footage of some surprisingly vacant NYC streets and subway tunnels.
- BEST PART:
Lynne Thigpen (the Chief from Carmen Sandiego!) as a radio DJ narrating the film and/or issuing gang orders.
- TRIVIA:
The character played by Thomas G. Waites gets hit by a subway train because the actor was feuding with Hill.
- STINGER:
"Hey Warriors, come out to play-ay!"
