    My buddy and I have “Christopher lambert” day every year on his birthday to watch some of his movies and drink beer. We were going to do this one this year with Highlander 3, but my wife went in to labour and we had our daughter on it instead. One tradition ends, a new one begins!

    The ending was actually a reshoot. In the original cut, the wife and baby do indeed die in the explosion, the idea being that Brennick would become a revolutionary against the Men-Tel corporate government in a sequel.

    Another great Christopher Lambert film is "Subway" (1985), great acting, great music, cool story. It was the first french film I saw as a teenager, and my intro to amazing director Luc Besson (Leon (1994), The Fifth Element (1997)) 👍

    Wow you are the only person to react to this movie. I forgot about Fortress. I remember seeing this with my dad . Most action movies after Total Recall were going through an experimental stage. The sci Fi action thrillers you know they were we'll throw this at audiences to see if they'll like it.
    Two that stood out about incarceration in the future was Fortress and No Escape. No Escape was pretty bad ass to and if you love Fortress No Escape is the better of the two. They both had the same moral don't be caught in the future. They both certainly nail that home.

    I'd never heard of this til I saw you upload it. Tracked it down yesterday and watched it last night just for this lol - surprisingly fun little movie. Christopher Lambert is always a treat, but this also had Jeffrey Combs (Check him out in Re-Animator if you haven't seen it), also Tom Towles - who I knew I recognised but couldn't pinpoint where, turns out he was in the 1990s remake of Night of the Living Dead (which I love, arguably more than the original). Also, glad you kept the stuff in at the end - its always fun realising where you see people from, also kinda tempting me to rewatch the The Haunting & House on Haunted Hill, i'm pretty sure i've seen them but really can't recall anything specific.

  • @notjustforhackers4252
    @notjustforhackers4252 Рік тому +4

    Jeffrey Combs is awesome in anything he's in, Stuart Gordon is a B movie legend. More like this..... Lockout (2012), Wedlock (1991), Demolition Man (1992), Escape From New York (1980)... maybe Face Off (1997) and Cube (1997).

    I was so surprised to see someone review this movie. I wasn't sure if anyone else even remembered it existed, much less was interested enough to react to it. A shame, really, because for this kind of sci-fi movie, it's definitely one of the better ones.
    A movie with a similar theme that is also worth a watch is "No Escape" aka "Escape From Absolom", a movie starring Ray Liotta with a great supporting cast. I definitely recommend it.

    I love this movie. I was one of the many who suggested it on the other Lambert videos, so glad you watched it! The movie lacks budget, but it makes up for it every way it can, with good writing and acting, creativity in the tech and the effects, the sheer brutality of the violence and the dystopia, and effective storytelling. One cool thing I want to point out if that all the laser bars in the entire movie, none of them are an optical effect. They decided the cheapest and best looking way to do it was to run plastic cables between the walls and set LED lights inside them. Watch for it, any time the energy bars go down, there's a cut, and it's usually cleverly disguised. Because they had to remove the physical plastic bars and replace them. But it looks perfect. This movie seems way more high budget than it is, really a great work of craftsmanship and a great showcase for Lambert.

    After Highlander and
    Knight Moves (1992) if you haven't seen it yet you should check it out.
    A few recommendations for prison movies are
    Wedlock (1991) with Rutger Hauer
    No Escape (1994) with Ray Liotta
