| “Snake”
Plissken’s back. Sixteen years on. He’s the only one who can
recover an important device stolen by the daughter of the President of
the USA and taken to the island of Los Angeles, home of the most dangerous
delinquents in the world. It’s a time of revolution. The poor countries
are rebelling. A new screen appearance by “Snake”, solitary
antihero, a sceptic thug of an individualist played once again by Kurt
Russell, on this occasion accompanied by a cast of outsiders headed by
Stacy Keach (the legendary Mike Hammer), Peter Fonda, Pam Grier, Steve
Buscemi, Bruce Campbell and a George Corraface recycled from the part
of Columbus to become «el Che». Sequel overstepping its condition
as such to become one of the most revolutionary and libertarian titles
of John Carpenter’s filmography. Welcome to the human race. |
