Escape 2000/YMMV

"Rat Woman: [about Junior] You keep him buried down here?
 * Cliche Storm: Some of the most prominent 80's action movie cliches show up.
 * Designated Hero:
 * Trash's motivations are never made particularly clear, but Strike is a vicious mercenary who uses his own son as an accomplice and Dablone wants to run crime in the Bronx (and thus opposes the directive to rebuild it with, you know, schools and hospitals).
 * Of course, considering the guys who want to build those schools and hospitals are perfectly happy to murder any and all opposition... somehow this trope still applies. Amazing what Black and Grey Morality can do, ain't it?
 * Ensemble Darkhorse: Who is the real star of this movie, eh? Not the Trash, or even the rat lady! It is only I, DABLONE!!! AH-HA-HA-HA-HA!
 * Funny Aneurysm Moment:  have something that should be Friendship Moment when they say good-bye at the end with   even acting cute and silly. While standing in the middle of dozens upon dozens of death mooks and bodies of their fallen comrades.
 * First Installment Wins: A partial aversion. Thanks to the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode, most people were largely unaware that Escape 2000 was actually a sequel. 1990: The Bronx Warriors obscurity back in the day didn't help its case either. Today, the sequel is more widely known because of it.
 * There is a reason this page 90% about Escape 2000 despite being a page for both movies.
 * Memetic Mutation:
 * Perhaps only on this website, but have we ever given so much attention to a character other than DABLONE?! HIJO DE LA PUTA!
 * We have, actually. DABLONE (HA-HA!) is one of a trio with CIAPHAS CAIN, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM! and CAPTAIN GORDON, DEFENDER OF EARTH! If all three were put into the same room, the universe would collapse in on itself as a Big Bang of awesomeness took its place, and BRIAN BLESSED! would be the first man they created for the new world.
 * Don't forget to LEAVE THE BRONX!
 * Special Effects Failure:
 * In a scene near the beginning, some goons are in a helicopter flying over THE BRONX . In the flyover, we can see traffic moving through an obviously-not-ruined THE BRONX.
 * When  car gets exploded by a grenade, it's painfully obvious that it's a just a plastic model blowing up.
 * The awkwardly falling dummy that tumbles out of the exploding helicopter is a Crowning Moment of Funny.
 * Straw Man Has a Point:

Strike: Why, is up there better?
