Considering this moster movie was based on an 80s arcade game (that I barely remember playing on the Nintendo) it was surprisingly good. Sure it is a bit campy at some points its not over the top like some other 80s video game movie adaptations I could name. There's a well rounded cast of characters, my biggest issue is the villainous brother and sister the acting at times seemed staged (not wooden but like read lines?) they were ok but more meh.
Good movie for a few cheap jump scares, wonton destruction and some good laughs.

"I know this is out of print, but I still have the Criterion disc on my shelf, and it’s one of my favorite DVDs ever. U.S. cinema has made the action film a national product, but all in all I keep thinking of two films that have rewritten filmed and staged action: George Miller’s Mad Max 2, from Australia, and Woo’s Hard Boiled, from Hong Kong. They look familiar as recognizable genre exercises (chases, shootouts), but the truth is they are pretty dangerous and extreme. If you can ever release a Blu-ray for this, I’ll get it."

"The Warriors, only because it was such a brilliant… Well, actually, the reason why is because I did it as my first-ever stage play. We did a staged version of The Warriors, which is absurd, and it was, like, a lot of British kids running around hitting each other with polystyrene baseball bats. It was such a theatrical version of New York, of the gangs in New York, and it was visceral and sort of fun and energetic, and I loved it. I watched it when I was probably about 11, and kind of loved it."
