The Warriors


Summary

  The movie "The Warriors", is about the most powerful gang leader in all of New York City. Cyrus, The leader of the Gramercy Riffs, calls together all the gangs in new york to try and create a peace treaty. Cyrus ends up getting shot by a rival gang of the warriors. The rival gang then blames the murder on the Warriors. The Warriors then have to fight there way back to Coney Island (their "hood").

Main Characters

  Micheal Beck in the movie plays the character "Swan". Swan was picked up by the warriors in 1978 by Cleon and Vermin. He possesses strong leadership and fighting skills and later becomes the warlord, leader of the warriors.
  Ajax, played by James Remar, also join the gang in 1978. Ajax is named after the Greek hero, is extremely good with his fists and very strong, but not very smart.
  In the movie, Cleon is played by Dorsey Wright. Cleon is one of the founders of the Warriors. Prior to Swan, Cleon was the warlord.\
  Snow is played by Brian Tyler. Snow rarely speaks, but when he does he normally says something meaningful or wise.
  Cochise is played by David Harris. Cochise is a good fighter and joined the Warriors is 1978.
  Rembrant is played by Marcelino Sanchez. Rembrant is the youngest of all the warriors and is mainly brought along to only tag places the gang has been. He is named after the dutch painter.

Best Part

  In my opinion, the best part of the movie is when they fight the punks gang. They are the gang that roller skates everywhere. They fight is the subway station bathroom. At first is is only swan, but the rest of the gang shows up and signals to draw the punks into the bathroom where they then jump them.

Worst Part

  The worst part of the movie is probably fact that half the gang dies on the was to Conet Island, even though it adds more drama to the story, I feel like even though the made it to Coney Island, It still feels like they lost. 

Opinion

  For the opinion part of this review, I feel like the movie deserves a 9/10. All the fight scenes were very well done and the acting is mostly well done. I highly enjoyed this movie and is very well done for its time.

    Check your spelling and grammar, there were some minor errors.
