If your looking for an interesting action movie. Then I recommend "Escape from New York" Its about a man named "Snake" Who was given an assignment to go over the other side of this dirty, ruthless and violent part of the city to rescue the president. And discovers the other side of the city is just as ruthless as the organized side of the city that he lives in. The Movie is about judging correct - don't judge a book by its cover.
