I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

The semi-tough, actually rather effeminate Mark Gregory is back as "that delinquent Trash person" in Bronx Warriors 2, which in my opinion bests the original. It's faster-paced, with more action and more dead bodies, and Mark Gregory's acting has even improved.The story gleefully ups the bleakness quotient, with most of the Bronx gangs having retreated into subterranean hideouts as Disinfestation Annihilation Squads raze the blighted neighborhoods to make way for fascistic urban renewal. Anybody who's seen the first Bronx Warriors knows Trash isn't going to put up with that.If you're in the mood for a cheap 80s action flick that delivers the goods, Bronx Warriors 2 has more than enough gun battles, flamethrowers, exploding miniatures, people dying and flying through the air in slow motion, and scatological dialogue to satisfy. Consider watching it as a double feature with C.H.U.D., which shares several of its elements.

Mark Greggory is back as Trash and now it's ten years later and he still lives in the "no mans land" dubbed the Bronx. His gang is no longer with him, but he finds new underground thugs to help him battle a rich politician and his crooked cops that want to demolish whats left of the Bronx.I ask myself, why in the hell would anyone want to stay there for...Well this time we have a new writer and that is probably half of the problem. The great Dardano Sachetti is not on board and Tito Carpi wrote this one. It seemed better produced although it was made less than a year later and with the same producer and Enzo Castrelli still on board as director. They tried making it a better movie and took the cheesiness down a notch and tried to make it more flawless. Doing these cautious edits and attention to detail actually made the movie worse. The flaws are part of what makes a b-movie great.Don't get me wrong the movie was still cheesy, overdubbing was bad, plot had funny bits and there was some over the top BS going on with the story line. I mean from a couple pistol shots blowing up a helicopter to the same locations being re-used but trying to make them different places. Trash looked less in shape and seemed to be a lot less cool here, maybe it was to try to make him more serious now that he is working alone. I just absolutely love Mark's work but this is perhaps his worst acting job.Mark is still good even if this was his worst role(that i have seen). Henry Silva was great as he always is and most of the cast did a great job for this type of film. I didn't care much for Antonio Sabata Sr. He is always hit or miss with me. The music was a lot different but I liked it.What can I say about this, it was a cheesy Italian b-movie action/ post apocalyptic mess. I enjoyed it a lot, but it was trying too hard to learn from the mistakes of the first one and that made it a bit too serious for a film that should never take itself that serious to start with. The directing was okay but the editing needed loads of work. Music was fitting and acting was middle of the road. I didn't care much for how it ended, but I guess it got its point across, and still left room for a sequel...but I am guessing nobody bought it after they saw this one...4/10 stars but I can only recommend it to those who love the cheesy exploitation films as much as I do.

BRONX WARRIORS was a pretty bad movie to say the least, but BRONX WARRIORS 2, which has clearly been conceived out of optimism rather than anything else, exceeds in sheer badness and dullness. It has a bit more energy and enthusiasm than it's predecessor, but the sheer lack of logistical thought and evidence that it was shot wherever the director could muster a location in the Hudson River are makes it a turkey amongst equals.A Government corporation sends in flamethrower and machine gun wielding jump-suited soldiers wearing crash helmets to raze a dilapidated area of the Bronx to make way for developments of housing and the residents who are refusing to budge. Led by villainous Henry Silva, they have reckoned without our illustrious hero Trash (Mark Gregory) who, armed with his super-powerful Magnum (so powerful) that he manages to blow up a whole helicopter with six bullets (similar in logistical relish as George Kennedy's flare gun party piece in AIRPORT 80 THE CONCORDE when he directs a guided missile using a flare gun and succeeds!!!) and a war breaks out to decide the future of the Bronx. Where is Acme Realty when you need them!!!? Another moment to behold is the four or five soldiers who turn up in a clearly rush-hour moment and waltz down subway stairs whilst watched by workers bemused by their suits and thinking they are on their way to a fancy-dress party. Coupled with the music score that personifies many spaghetti offerings like this, it is only worth viewing if you are genuinely in need of a beer-and-curry night in with your girlfriend.

It's the return of Trash (literally) in this obviously thin-plotted but action-packed sequel to "1990: The Bronx Warriors", again directed by Enzo G. Castellari and starring Mark Gregory as the charismatic gang leader Trash. The first film was a pure rip-off of "Escape from New York", but it was quite a huge success and therefore a sequel was needed really fast. Supposedly set one entire decade after the events of the first film, the Bronx is still an extremely pauperized and hellish area to live and an embarrassment for the city of New York. But the gigantic TC Corporation now offers a perfect solution, as they plan to demolish the old Bronx and build a new, Metropolis-like city instead. They even give away new houses in New Mexico to the stubborn Bronx inhabitants that are reluctant to leave! At least, that's what they tell the media because in reality the people who refuse to leave their homes voluntarily are burnt alive by an extermination squad, led by the relentless former army commander Floyd Wrangler. Trash, furious over the death of his parents, unites the remaining gang member and urges them to fight back. With the help of TV-reporter and a dynamite father-son team, he even kidnaps the president of the TC Corporation, resulting in a bloody & explosive battle. "Escape from the Bronx" is a very simplistic and undemanding time-waster! The plot is rudimentary and the dialogs are very poor, but the violent executions and slow-motion explosions are literally countless. This movie probably has one of the highest body counts in the history of action cinema, as those men in their disinfecting-uniforms are dropping like flies! Some of them meet very nasty fates, like having their faces smashed (through their helmets!) with the back end of a shotgun or running into a gang members with explosives attached to their chests. Don't look for intellect, or even logic, too much in a film like "Escape from the Bronx", as it exclusively offers entertainment values. Mark Gregory clearly developed as an actor since the first movie, and this sequel also stars the legendary Henry Silva as the über-villain Wrangler. Francesco De Masi's fabulous score even increases the excitement during the action sequences and most of the make-up effects are competently handled. Good fun, as long as you keep your expectations low.
