Again another 80s film that is not without some redeeming qualities, the visual effects, costumes and sets should be lorded but it does feel like Rollerball flavoured Mad Max lite.
Kid me thought this movie was good, although I still can’t Rollerblade, I’m still recommending it for nostalgia purposes but also if you’ve never seen the films this one mimics at points it might still be fun.
