Rescue the President
Reviewed in Australia on 16 February 2018
In the future crime has become so bad that all of New York City has been fenced off and that is where the criminals live. The President's air plan crashes into New York City Prison and so a former decorated soldier is brought in to locate and rescue the Prez, if he does his sentence is eliminated. He encounters a cast of characters. Engaging.

2018 restoration 4K Boxset Review
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 December 2018
Verified Purchase
This is a review for the November 2018 4k box set edition of Escape from NY. Disclaimer, i do not own a 4K player, and bought this solely for the BluRay and my own collection. First off the packaging - its really nice, its brand new artwork across the whole box and i like that it also matches the style and the spine design for the other studio canal restorations. I Only bought the box set edition of Escape, however it still matches up with the regular slipcover blurays of Prince, They Live and the Fog. Inside is a small booklet about the making of the film and the restoration. It is similar to what can be found in Arrow Films boxsets. Then there is the triple gatefold packaging, its dark blue and has nice artwork of Snake and some of the other characters. It all folds out to display the three discs as well as the folded (and small) poster and artcards. My only complaint is the booklet and the gatefold packaging is too tight for the box and its hard to easily remove from the outer sleeve.

Onto the film, note that ihave only viewed the bluray, but i can say this restoration is fantastic, and is by far the best available. The previous studio canal blu-ray was awful and was essentially a DVD transfer slapped onto a bluray disc. The US had the shout factory bluray, which looked a million times better, but it pales in comparison to this transfer. The blu-ray looks top notch, so i would imagine the 4k UHD disc looks even better.

The extras are ok, i have not gone through all of them, but it seems to be the same stuff as on previous releases. My biggest complaint, is that the deleted opening scene of the bank robbery was not restored and looks awful. However this is only minor, and its still an enjoyable watch. The soundtrack is a nice touch too, and is a much better addition to that of a DVD copy (as some boxset do include).

Overall a fantastic package, and is currently the best way to watch this film.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 October 2017

For a film like this it deserves so much more than we get. I took a punt on this release as well its ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, nothing else needs to be said. The artwork cover straight away raises eyebrows as it just looks off, like someone just went onto Photoshop and got a cut out of Snake and plonked him on the end.

What made me press the trigger on this was the extras. They are the same as the Special Edition DVD but with the added HD upgrade I was happy enough to pretend the cover didn't exist. Sadly I was wrong. The extras on any Blu-Ray are delightful but this upgrade, well it just wasn't anything there to enjoy. It felt like I was watching a DVD on a Blu-Ray disc and that is not why you pay the extra money. If I was a fan giving advice to another fan I would suggest pay the extra money and buy the Scream Factory release with the real HD upgrade plus the original artwork as your front cover plus a newly commissioned cover by the great Paul Shipper. Make sure your player is Region Free first though. Overall not worth it.

4K Collectors Set with Slipcase, Cards, Soundtrack & Booklet WOW
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 January 2019
Verified Purchase
This review is for the 2018 4K Slipcase Collectors set which includes the 4k UHD Release and a whole lot of extras inc the soundtrack on cd, an extras bluray, a booklet and poster with art cards. i ordered this straight away despite owning several other versions on DVD and Bluray over the years. Let me tell you this - the 4K version of the film is stunning. We will never see EFNY look any better than it does here. There is a little grain (as is expected from old movies shot on celluloid) but WOW.... I kept finding my self sitting closer and closer to my 65'' TV to fully immerse myself in this new found detail and clarity I was experiencing. Looking at the specs (won't bore you here) but it looks like they did this properly and meticulously, finishing off with the original cinematographer supervising the colour grading for the UHD release, for me, rubber stamping the authenticity of this new transfer. I love the artwork on some of my old dvds and blurays of EFNY, so i'll never part with them, but also, I'll never again open them to play the discs... they are now redundant. As a lifelong fan of EFNY, I love this new transfer and to talk about the extras which come in this package is almost insignificant, but a very welcome inclusion. Soundtrack CD, Poster, Art Cards, Booklet, Extras Bluray...... all housed in a nice slip case with fresh artwork. If I'm totally honest, I'm not a fan of the artwork for these new releases - they look too polished to me, whereas I always think of EFNY as this dystopian movie, full of grit and dirt...but hey. this is a VERY minor personal gripe. If you can get your hands on one of these sets, just buy it, you won't be disappointed. Well done Studiocanal.

Kurt in a very dirty New York
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 November 2020
Verified Purchase
I remembered this fondly from decades back but it has dated. Inevitably a lot of its material has been imitated since the film appeared but the big disappointment is the lack of humour. It’s not quite the Tom and Jerry film I had in mind. Director John Carpenter rarely raises the lighting, all is doom and gloom. However my refurbished print is excellent so nothing is missed.
The situation in New York is not properly explained.Why are there few females? Where does everyone live and how come they keep popping up in odd places.? Although the man called Brain is supposed to provide oil, where does he get it? It is of course a sci-fi film of sorts but there needs to be a firm basis to the plot.
None of the actors has a chance to shine except possibly Kurt Russell, who has been directed by Carpenter to speak his lines in an angry whisper. He hates life you see. He was so fed up with being a war hero, he turned to robbery, as one does.
Never mind. Despite all this and a chase at the end which, considering the fact that the bridge is mined, would have been impossible, it’s worth seeing. The film has an energy and a who-cares-what-happens-next vitality rarely found today.

Classic movie in pin-sharp HD
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 March 2021
Verified Purchase
I bought this movie to watch with my eldest son, it's an 80's classic and he has enjoyed other John Carpenter movies already. I had never seen it on anything other than an old, non-HD TV, either as a broadcast years ago, or maybe on VHS. So, to see it for the first time myself in HD was a revelation. A great, HD, trip down memory lane, and my son really enjoyed it also. Maybe not as quite as good a film as either They Live, or Assault on Precinct 13, but a classic nonetheless. Who doesn't love Kurt Russell as Snake Plissken or Ernest Borgnine as Cabbie?
