I liked the pace of the movie and seeing snake on scren again, but this was the only good thing about the movie. To over the top,and poor action.I actually liked the ending, it was one of the few scenes i did like. Doesnt compare to New York.

I think this movie was a complete and utter waste of film. I was horrified the first time I watched this film....The acting was pretty crappy, the premise was terrible, and the action....was crap.
Come'on now...Surfing on the 405 freeway? Gladiator death games at the collesium was kinda cool. But the whole story was crap...
A total disappointment. Snake was lame on this one. Some scenes (like the surfing part) were dull. Even worse the basketball scene seen straight out of Michael Jordan commercial. Watch it only if you're a fan of the original if not don't waste your time. I highly recomend the orginal over the sequel.

I also didn't care for the overuse of CGI. Even for 1996, it was too much. A bunch of us saw it at the theater, and the film kept breaking. Since we all were being let down by the film itself anyway, the whole place eventually broke down into anarchy. Everyone was shouting at the screen and making fun of the movie. It was like RHPS or MST3K; a pretty fun evening for being such a substandard film.

Aww my God. The CGI were shitty even for 96. Yeah, the surfing scene was horrid looking, but the scnes that were even more terribly fake looking was the scene when they were hangliding into battle. aww,my God that was awful.

When we saw them zooming in on hang gliders, we all said "Ah-EEE-ahhh", mimicking the battle cry the Ewoks made when they attacked the stormtroopers with their makeshift gliders.

ahh yeah it is defenantly a great B movie, or a good ol classic cheese film to watch with some friends. I think escape from L.A was more like big trouble in little China than a sequal to new york. However, when you got kurt russel, and this was back when carpenter was in posistion of getting a decent budget behind his name, there should have been more than just corny ass cheese. I dont care how good you are at making Good B movies, One every ounce in a while is cool, thats nice to say that your not taking yourself to seriously, but i prefer a decent Great movie over a master B flick anyday. And carpenter has been producing only B flicks anymore, why cant he make any more good new movies,instead of killing great classics, with shitty sequals? .
