Product Description

Product Description

A battle of gigantic proportions is looming in the neon underground of New York City. The armies of the night number 100,000; they outnumber the police 5 to 1; and tonight they're after the Warriors - a street gang blamed unfairly for a rival gang leader's death. This contemporary action-adventure story takes place at night, underground, in the sub-culture of gang warfare that rages from Coney Island to Manhattan to the Bronx. Members of the Warriors fight for their lives, seek to survive in the urban jungle and learn the meaning of loyalty. This intense and stylized film is a dazzling achievement for cinematographer Andrew Laszlo.

Amazon.com

The Warriors combines pure pulp storytelling and surprisingly poetic images into a thoroughly enjoyable cult classic. The plot is mythically pure (and inspired by a legendary bit of Greek history): When a charismatic gang leader is shot at a conclave in the Bronx meant to unite all the gangs in New York City, a troupe from Coney Island called the Warriors get blamed and have to fight all the way back to their own turf--which means an escalating series of battles with colorful and improbable gangs like the Baseball Furies, who wear baseball uniforms and KISS-inspired face make-up. Pop existentialism, performances that are somehow both wooden and overwrought, and zesty, kinetic filmmaking from director Walter Hill (Southern Comfort, 48 Hrs.) result in a delicious and unexpectedly resonant operatic cheesiness. The Ultimate Director's Cut doesn't radically alter the movie--some of the editing is tighter, the Greek legend has been added as an introduction--with one exception: in transitions, scenes begin and end as scenes from a comic book. While The Warriors always had a comic book flavor (and Hill, in an interview, says he deliberately pursued that sensibility), this device--similar to The Hulk--seems a bit overkill. But it's a minor problem; the movie holds its own, even 26 years later. The dvd has no audio commentary, but there are four short documentaries (really, one documentary in four parts). These include excellent interviews with Hill, actors Michael Beck, James Remar, David Patrick Kelly, and Deborah Van Valkenburgh. The producers, the cinematographer, the costume designer, the stunt coordinator, and many others give lively and in-depth descriptions of how the movie came to be. One of these documentaries includes portions of a deleted scene that was used when The Warriors was screened on television; no other deleted scenes are included. --Bret Fetzer

Fantastic Blu Ray. Import but plays on US players.
The Imprint blu ray rocks! If you’re like me and love this movie, but hate the pointless directors cut, you should buy this blu ray. It includes both versions of the movie and a ton of special features. The picture and sound are both vastly improved from my old dvd copy.Best of all, this will play on US players, or at least it plays on mine. Shipping takes some time, as it’s coming from overseas, but it’s well worth the wait. Five stars!

5.0 out of 5 stars Theatrical cut finally in 5.1!!
Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2024
Verified Purchase
I have been a fan of this movie ever since 1979 when I was a kid. My parents saw the trailer for this movie and forbid me to see it. When it finally came out on HBO about a year later, they would only show it at like 3AM or later/earlier. So one night when everyone was asleep I finally got to see this movie. As a kid, it totally blew me away. I remember telling my friends at school about it the next day. Anyways, since then I have bought this movie several times in 4 different formats and this "Imprint" version is the best! This is the only time that the theatrical cut has been released in 5.1!! The comic book "Director's cut" has always been in 5.1! Not my favorite version of the film. I prefer the original. I recently bought the Arrow 4k release of the Theatrical cut that was just released last week and it is in 2.0?!? Picture is better of course in 4k uhd. This "Imprint" release looks really nice also and is preferred because of the 5.1 mix that I have been waiting for!! Thank you soooo much IMPRINT you folks ROCK!!

4.0 out of 5 stars "The chicks are packed! The chicks are packed!"

Any time I bring The Warriors (1979) up or even hint at it to one of my friends, he invariably always apes the same line of dialog from the film, "Warriors, come out and playyyy!". If you've seen the film, you know this as probably the most recognizable line in the movie, but if you haven't, well, it's something much better experienced rather than me trying to explain the context in which it is presented in the movie. Co-written and directed by Walter Hill (Hard Times, 48 Hrs.), the film features a number of actors including Michael Beck (Xanadu, Warlords of the 21st Century), James Remar, whom many will recognize as the crazed antagonist Ganz in Hill's later Eddie Murphy/Nick Nolte film 48 Hrs. (1982), Deborah Van Valkenburgh (Brain Smasher... A Love Story), and David Patrick Kelly, who also appeared in 48 Hrs., along with other films like Dreamscape (1984), Commando (1985), and more recently in just released remake The Longest Yard (2005).

The film begins as we learn Cyrus, charismatic leader of the biggest, baddest gang (the Grammercy Riffs) in the whole NY area wants to hold a meeting of all the gangs in an effort to consolidate their collective resources, creating a vast army of the night and effectively taking over the city. In order to facilitate the gathering, instructions are put forth that each gang is meant to send nine members, no one is to be armed with weapons, and a general truce is in effect allowing the various gangs to cross each others `turf' in order to arrive at the planned meet area. The various gangs seem reluctant to attend such a meeting, but they all show up, including members of the Warriors, who make the trip all the way from their turf of Coney Island. Shortly after Cyrus begins his speech, a gunshot is issued from the crowd, and Cyrus falls...to which someone blames the Warriors (undeservedly). Right about now is when the police show up to bust up the party, and mayhem ensues (along with lots of heads getting beat in). During the confusion, the Warriors manage to escape, but now find themselves deep within rival gang territories without any weapons, their leader missing (or worse), and a target of a massive manhunt by not only all the other gangs, but also by the police. Thus begins their long and dangerous trek back to their home turf...

I found this film to be pretty interesting and a lot of fun. One thing I really liked was seeing not only the external difficulties of the Warriors in having to move through unfamiliar and dangerous territories, but also the internal struggles they faced due to the fact they were without a leader. Most of the characters were pretty distinctive in that we had the slightly enigmatic war chief Swan (Beck) having to assume the role of leader which most of the others are more than happy to follow his lead, with the exception of the hot headed Ajax (Remar), who consistently expresses his desire to engage in the physical activity of busting heads, rather than the course of action which they're currently employing being that of trying to elude those who are after them, fighting only when no other option is available. The latter seems the more intelligent method, especially since the enemies are numerous and varied, and the battleground unfamiliar. The distinction between the gangs was also interesting as they weren't so much divided by race (although the Riffs appeared mainly African American), but more so by manner of dress and/or appearance. We have the Furies, who dressed in baseball uniforms and carried baseball bats as their main choice of weapon, the High Hats (mime-like characters), the Lizzzies (an all girl gang, some of whom seemed quite mannish), the Turnbull ACs (bald-headed and highly aggressive), among many others. Given the often outlandish differences between the gangs it was obvious they weren't created to forward a sense of realism, but probably to provide a clear delineation between the various factions (some of the gangs reminded me of that one episode of the 70's TV show Happy Days where Ritchie, Ralph, and Potsie find themselves facing off against a goofy gang in the school gym). But then we had the very realistic element of the film being shot entirely on location (at least that's what I think), so there is this unreal element put into a very real environment creating an unusual dichotomy driving the viewers interest. Adding to the this is the minimal and often frank dialog, along with the attitudes and general streetwise nature of the characters. Another element I really liked was how the information on the Warrior's progress was relayed to the various gangs by utilizing the female radio DJ as she made subtle remarks in-between songs. One scene that stands out in my mind is when the Warriors (who were pretty adaptable if you really think about it) find themselves confronted by one of the lesser gangs, one called the Orphans. At first they manage to come to an uneasy agreement through a little give and take, but that soon falls apart as an unknown element (a female) provides a manipulatory source of instigation, ultimately causing an escalation to the point of violence. I thought the cast in general did very well although it seemed David Patrick Kelly performance was a little over the top but perhaps that was intentional. I just found it hard to buy off on the fact someone so screwed up and psychotic could manage to ascend to the level of leadership as he did within his own gang, but then this is a world where not only strength, but also the appearance of strength, along with a propensity towards violence goes a long way. I thought the direction really strong, as Hill kept things moving along well, even during the scenes with relatively little activity (there weren't that many, as the characters are constantly on the run). One really great action sequence worth price of admission alone is the confrontation in the subway bathroom when the Warriors square off against a gang of toughs in overalls (I read somewhere it took a week to complete filming on this sequence).

The widescreen anamorphic (1.85:1) picture on this DVD is clean and clear, and the Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono audio comes through well. Some will be disappointed by the lack of extra features (all that's included is a trailer), but I have heard the possibility of a more extensive release in the future, perhaps coinciding with the upcoming remake scheduled to be released in 2006, with Tony Scott (The Last Boy Scout, True Romance) listed as director.

By the way, in case you're wondering, those extraordinarily large and poofy hairdos sported by a few of the cast members are called afros. They were pretty popular back in the 70's for some inexplicable reason.
