Kurt Russell as Snake Plissken is always fantastic to see and this version is a must for any fan.

While the idea of having a digipack package for this release was a nice one, the realization is badly done, with the digipack made oversized, and cardboard squished a bit, looking ugly. So, the package gets 1 star, with the movie and extras getting 5, so, the 3 stars avarege. I like digipack in theory, but, the quality control has to be better for releases like this one.

I love getting 4k remasters of classics and escape from new York is one of my favourites I know this film didn't receive as much acclaim but I think it's a solidly good sequel and this 4k remaster is superb

Escape from new york to me is the best action movie of all time. While not as good LA is a super fun time and more screen time with Snake is more than worth your time. Cannot wait to rewatch this in 4K and the extra cards and poster are a welcome bonus in this set.

If your a big Carpenter or Russell fan this is a must have

Great film finally given the recognition it deserves. Bummed about no extras but the 4K transfer is great.

I can only review the film at the moment and my thoughts about its release. A lot of people slate this movie, but I consider it a great tongue-in-cheek b movie, and it was great to see Kurt Russel back as anti-hero, Snake Plisken. As to the contents? Come on, Paramount; no soundtrack disc? I don’t know if Studio Canal are going to release this in the future, like their other 5 John Carpenter collector editions. Also worth noting that this Paramount release is the same price as Studio Canal’s releases, but with 2 extra discs. I still think I will buy this though, I love John Carpenter’s movies.
