A post-apocalyptic society where the local law enforcement and "leadership" have a truce with the gang culture: law and order gets the daylight hours, chaos gets the night. You're not going to be blown away with the story, the styles, or even the gangs that look like mailmen, mimes, a yodeler, Angus Young and Rick James. Alysa Milano and the Power Corps will have your eyes rolling. I remember loving the beat-em-up game, like I loved Super Mario, but this film, like the Super Mario film, really took the extremes of style, bleached hair, and societal degradation to heart. Just like when I was a kid though, my sons enjoyed it.
