Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Konterr Brilliant and touching

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Nexus Engel There's very little good I can say about this movie. The promotional artwork was actually better than the movie, with their old-fashioned drawn posters of macho men wielding machine guns and roaring to a black sky. The only thing it really seemed to have was a cool location that was appropriate for its story, and I seriously doubt it took a lot of work to find rundown locations in the Bronx (and places that obviously weren't the Bronx) during that time. The acting sucks certain cavities like a vacuum cleaner sucks hairballs. The main actor's facial expression doesn't change for at least half the movie--or more. Everyone's acting is equally abysmal, with two exceptions: Fred Williamson was above-average as Ogre, and the guy who played the villain Hammer (a psycho cop/mercenary... type person) was as over-the-top and as cheesy as they come. I get that low-budget Italian exploitation is crap by default, especially in the acting department, but the bad acting wasn't even a fun kind of bad here.The plot is the type of thing you'd want to see in a Hollywood type of movie, with a gang protecting an heiress of a gunrunning company from the psychos that are sent by her father to retrieve her. She doesn't want to run the business, so automatically her first choice is to flee to the Bronx, which has apparently become the most dangerous, lawless, gang-ridden part of New York, and a total 'No- Man's-Land'. Think Old Town from Sin City, but with less babes and an unclearer reason as to why cops aren't supposed to be in the Bronx anymore. For what it is, we have an interesting story shoved into a boring movie. The whole thing is so dull that whatever story potential it may have had is ruined by its mediocre acting, uninteresting characters (except for the aforementioned Ogre and Hammer), bland action sequences (I mean come on, half the deaths in this movie were caused by slapping their opponents), and lack of resolution. It literally ENDS after a few deaths, and we aren't told what happens to half the characters involved in the end (the ones that are still alive, anyway).I enjoy some low-budget movies if they're done well. Or even semi- well. I like exploitation movies for their weirdness and occasional boldness. Hell, I even like the odd ripoff here and there. Speaking of which, this movie was clearly inspired by the 1979 movie The Warriors. Just look at the costume design and the way the actors talk tough in chest-baring leather and the now-classic 80's mullet hair. It's as ridiculous as it sounds, but it's not that fun to watch.I guess this could be a good movie if you're looking for some unintentional comedy or if you just want to pass the time on a boring afternoon. Even I would put it on as background noise and nothing more. It's underwhelming and more boring than it needs to be, and not as fun as it could've been. Still, it had its moments.There will always be better ways to pass the time than watching this, though. Like watching The Warriors instead. Or staring at a brick wall.

Nicky Filaki Going through a phase right now of watching all these 80s cult films that i remember as a child. "1990: The Bronx Warriors" would have to be my favourite. The costumes, the overacting, the slow fight scenes, the soundtrack of an overly distorted guitar blaring over a 1980s drum machine, the too easy to follow story lines and predictable endings, the cheap faded face paint, the heavy metal haircuts and the main characters name being "Trash"... With that all said i wouldn't want it any other way, its downfalls keep me glued to the screen. There's crap movies that i don't bother with that make me fall sleep, then there's movies that are so bad they're great.Labelled as a B grade movie it is definitely one of those films that u would've watched as a kid then many years later as an adult you'd be asking yourself and others "what was the name of that movie where the guy has a knife come out of the front of his cowboy boot? No not Roadhouse, it was way before that film".Directed by the Italian director that Tarrantino idolised: Enzo G. Castellari.This film is the daytime version of "The Warriors".If u haven't seen it get a hold of this badass film and thank me later, believe me it will change your life.

kosmasp I am not gonna tell anyone that their favorite childhood memory is actually a nightmare. But if you watch this movie for the first time when you are already an adult (and not to mention have seen a few movies), then this will do nothing for you. Except annoy you. It is actually almost the case of "So bad, it's kinda good". But it only is "So bad, it's actually kinda fun to watch". Though that would be for all the wrong reasons.I know I shouldn't be thinking about those things, but people going through a tunnel instead of just climbing over a bridge (especially considering the fact, that the Bridge option would be the safer one) just isn't going to cut it. The "real" for doing so, is of course because they obviously had no permit to shoot (I'm sure they weren't even allowed to shoot in the tunnels, but who cares, if they weren't caught?). And if you condone that behavior or even endorse it, you won't mind.I actually do not mind either and I salute their heart and dedication. It is also very clear, that they must have the time of their lives on the set. Unfortunately that does not translate into a good movie. Speaking of translation: Since most cast was mixed, with Italians and American actors, there is quite a bit of dubbing going on. The German dub (all actors get German voices) is really terrible. And they even had the "voices" of Kevin Kline, Bruce Willis and other actors who have made it big (since).I had the pleasure of meeting Fred Williamson in person. Apart from the fact, that he is still very fit (over 70 years old now), he wasn't going to trash the movie, instead opting to tell us (at the convention), that "every movie (he) is in, is good"! He didn't comment on the awful wardrobe either ... but that's budget restrictions too ... Was it still necessary to see the main guys breast 80% of the time? I don't think so ...

MisterWhiplash 1990: The Bronx Warriors. Just look at the title, first of all. The movie is from 1982, and it's about *eight years in the future* where Bronx is a total wasteland, there's a "Manhattan Corporation" that runs things by not-so-shady guys in suits, and it's... damn it, let's face it, it's a rip-off. The Warriors came out a few years before, a smash hit, and the Italian exploitation maestro Enzo G. Castellari (also director of the original Inglorious Bastards) decided to do something unique in the annals of Western movie-making: a Bronxploitation feature! It's got bad dubbing, I mean baaaaad dubbing, a side gang called "The Zombies" that are really a bunch of hockey nuts, plus some gang members who do tap-dancing around their victims, a random drummer keeping the beat during a confrontation scene by the river, and uh, other stuff too like Fred Williamson being Fred Williamson.So, yeah, you shouldn't expect fine art, but that doesn't mean that Catellari doesn't try, Lord does he! There's lots of SHOTS (I put capitals for a reason) as we see intense close-ups like of Trash crying (done ever so eloquently by the great Mark Gregory... please sense the sarcasm), panorama shots of The Riders riding their bikes through this No Man's Land of the Bronx with *other drivers driving behind them*, of lots of BIG action set-pieces. Did I mention as well that most of this was shot in Brooklyn and Roosevelt Island? To be fair, some wont be able to tell, unless one knows that that, uh, BRIDGE that's in many shots goes not to the Bronx but to Brooklyn, and as well there are actually quite a few good locations used. There were plenty to spare in the 80s that already looked deadened in the projects. So, in that sense, the ripping-off of the Warriors actually pays off.But 1990 Bronx Warriors should be considered a kind of classic compared to scores of other wretched crap that came out around the same time (not least of which this film's sequel- yes, sequel- and other post-apocalyptic rip-offs like 2019 and Endgame). Now, don't get this review wrong, the writing in the movie is absolutely awful at least half of the time; if a character like, say, anyone has to speak for more than one line it hurts, horribly, such as dialog between Trash and Ann by the seaside. Making up for this though is a whole lotta attitude and so much unintentional (or just accidental) humor that it keeps one glued to the screen. Anything even remotely possible that could be even further exaggerated from Walter Hill's film is taken up for grabs, with a possible touch of Escape from NY thrown in, and the action is actually directed pretty well in that tasteless and trashiest of exploitation/grindhouse/whatever-goes style.So, get some friends, grab beers, and root for the Riders and the Ogre (yes, that's Williamson) as they face off against scads of cops on horseback (?) all around the Bronx. It's crazy, mindless fun.
