The guy at the store actually made fun of me for buying this. Yeah, well, eff him. I dig this movie.
It's essentially a bigger budget remake of Escape From New York rather than a sequel, but with a more overt, tongue-in-check sense of humor. It rehashes the plot and a lot of the scenes from New York, only makes them bigger and more ridiculous. Almost as if it's a satire of the first movie, or of sequels. Only John Carpenter would pull this kind of silly, subversive nonsense, and I can't help but love him for it.
