The Warriors

New York City. Home to 7,000,000 people, they work, play, and have fun by day. But at night the city is run by ruthless street gangs such as; The Furies, The Boppers, The Hi-Hats, The Lizzies, The Turnbull AC's, The Gramercy Riffs and The Warriors. One night at an all gangs meeting, the leader of the Riffs, Cyrus, makes a speech and creates a plan to unite all the gangs of the city. One gang strong enough to overpower the police. But suddenly he is shot and a gang called The Warriors are framed by Luther, leader of the Rogues. Now they have to return to Coney Island, escaping from 20,000 policemen and 100,000 sworn enemies. They got one way out. They got one chance. They've got one night. The Warriors.

This movie has been a favorite of mine since i saw the first time on tv and ecer since i have loved it. It is about the strength of one small gang to fight their way back to their home without getting killed because of someone elses doings. I just love the fact that as you watch it you are really transported back to the late 70's when new yourk city was really a shithole and everyone knew that the gangs were everywhere. The music in this movie really sets the tone and the fact that it's an entire cast of nobodis makes it even cooler. I give this movie a 9 out of 10. If you see this movie wait till you hear the part when some one says" Warriors come out and play, Wwwwaaaarrrriiiiooorrrssss come out and pppllllllaaaayyyyaaayyyy!!!!!! you will remember that part forever its hilarious.
