The Warriors (The Ultimate Director's Cut)

Some may love or hate the minor transition tweaks done to this version but it still is the great movie I always remembered seeing many years ago. I enjoyed the directors interviews as well as the comments by the original cast members as they reflect on the making of the movie.

...and probably more so than when it was first released in theaters. In this version, they made some minor adjustments when transitioning to a few scenes to where they give it a brief comic book look. When I fist saw it I was a little upset (I guess I'm sort of a purist when it comes to movies, minus visual clarity improvements), but after understanding the origin of the movie and seeing the effect a few times, I kind of liked it. The bonus features are good, especially for fans of the movie. Get it while you can.

This was an on time delivery of the product that I order. It actually came a couple of days before I anticipated which made it even better. I was giving this to someone as a gift and thought I would have to give it to them after the fact but it came before scheduled. Thank you for the prompt shipping.

Have you ever seen a movie years (decades) ago and you loved it then? Over the years the movie in your heart and mind gets even better through your memory. Then when you re-watch it years later, it's so blown out of proportion through your memory that you're let down. Not so with The Warriors. This movie is just as good as ever. The atmosphere of the movie is great. The story of survival is great. The old-school gangs are done very well. At just over an hour and a half, it's a good pick to watch when one is pressed for time. I highly recommend The Warriors. It was good in 1979 and it's still good in 2008.

This version is a sad joke.
The original movie gets 4 or 5 stars, this "ultimate directors cut" should get zero.
