I had a great time with this film...not something revolutionary from a plot point of view, it's basically a remake of Assault on Precinct 13, but and it's a big but...it's executed with such panache you instantly forgive it when the action kicks off.

The film follows a team of old army friends as they try and celebrate one of their birthdays...fate conspires to ruin that however as a young girl in need of help sets them on the path of destiny.

The acting is solid, the violence is eye watering and the 80's look and feel (and sounds) made me feel at home...I loved it.

Basically a film about addiction, wearing the clothes of a horror film...this film really surprised me, I watch a LOT of films and you don't come across a film this unique very often.

Brilliantly acted by the lead, this man is naturally funny without being smug, which is quite the trick...grungy aesthetics, wonderful cinematography with excellent editing and direction.

The rating it has right now is a reflection of it's refusal to be an easy watch...the rating will grow.

So what it's not like the original and it's all random humour and 'bad' animation...it's funny, I'm old so I don't watch kids cartoon anymore (something the many many saddos in these reviews should consider) my children really loved it, it's no worse than Teen Titans Go (another KIDS cartoon that 40 something saddos hate) and it might even be better considering the reaction from my kids.

You'll get a funny cartoon cancelled because you are crying cause you can't carry on watching the same stuff you watched in your childhood repeated forever...'member when you were young? You hated all 'old' things didn't you? Why should todays kids be any different...but no, it's an 'insult' it's a 'slap in the face' and it's 'disrespectful', listen carefully saddos....GROW UP! Stop crying about a cartoon about anthropomorphic cats fighting an age old mummy not being like it used to be...you're literally pathetic.
