Lack of good storyline.

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The Warriors is a great film directed by Walter Hill about a group of lads embroiled with other gangs fighting for honor and turf on a strange surreal night. The film has gained critical acclaim and cult status only in recent years and was quite unsuccessful upon release. The reevaluation could be down to it being seen as a social commentary on youth and tribalism which has taken a much larger scale ever since its release. Indeed today many young people are a part of groups animatedly fighting against others with opposing agendas- which is not to say this film is only subversive. There is a lot of running and fighting and taking cover and hiding. The film flows and the violence even resembles poetry as the film progresses. The setting of the big apple in the isolation of the night lends itself perfectly to the characters and situation. The warriors is a great film not just because of its content but because of how relevant it has become.

Walter Hill is one of the most underrated filmmakers out there. It is staggering to think that he not only wrote the screenplay for Alien in 1979 but also directed another great cult film of the same year- The Warriors). This is a great film- raw, gritty and totally a product of its time. Rival gangs are shown arriving at a get together- this is a great piece of filmmaking, that opening sequence. We get to meet the characters and get to know the backstory and setup and all of this in a straightforward, no nonsense way. The warriors are the main bunch and we see them run across the deserted streets of New York trying to make sense of everything. This is one of the classic example of "all nightery films" which have to my knowledge been fantastic films.

This movie wasn't bad but it wasn't good, the writer had errors everywhere, I get he was trying to make this realistic but come on. Why did the train skip a stop? How did two people beat up 8 people, I mean they didn't even look that strong so how?

One thing i liked was that they were fighting anybody who came in their way. Another thing i liked was that they used hands or old weapons. Last thing i liked was that all the gangs had different outfits on.
