THE MOVIE<\/strong> \u2013 1.5\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Plot Outline:
\n<\/strong>It\u2019s 1990 and the Bronx has officially been declared a \u201cNo Man\u2019s Land.\u201d The authorities have given up all attempts to restore law and order. When a beautiful young woman (STEFANIE GIROLAMI) runs away from Manhattan into this wasteland of motorcycle gangs and marauding warriors, her corrupt father sends a ruthless mercenary (VIC MORROW) to bring her back at all costs. But gang leader Trash (MARK GREGORY) has other plans, uniting the rival outlaws to wage an all-out guerilla war against their corporate oppressors.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Quick Hit Review:
\n<\/strong>Going in I knew 1990: The Bronx Warriors<\/em><\/strong> was going to be cheesy which is fine and while there\u2019s some cheese, for the most part it\u2019s just a plain, old fashioned bad movie with terrible acting and a patchwork plot which makes absolutely no sense, though one could argue it doesn\u2019t matter. Problem is, I had a hard time even laughing at this though I suppose if one were to watch with friends, perhaps a better time was to be had.<\/p>\n

VIDEO \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Blue Underground releases 1990: The Bronx Warriors<\/em><\/strong> onto Blu-ray presented in its original 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer. The picture, I guess it shouldn\u2019t come to any surprise, that this low budget affair doesn\u2019t look great in HD. There\u2019s a high amount of noise throughout and even a bit splotchy in spots. However, colors are relatively bright and all things considered it\u2019s not terrible.

AUDIO \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The movie has been given an average sounding Mono DTS-HD Master Audio track. Again, as with the picture, there were built-in limitations and while dialogue levels are decent enough, the more action-oriented scenes are rather dull and even through one channel it doesn\u2019t offer a whole lot of depth. As with the video, it\u2019s adequate enough, just not overly impressive.<\/p>\n

OVERALL \u2013 2.5\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Overall, 1990: The Bronx Warrior<\/em><\/strong> was never meant to be good and it certainly is not. It is also not a movie to watch alone as I suspect one would have a far better time mocking it, \u201cMST3K\u201d style.
