After 1988, the U.S. turned Manhattan, New York into a maximum security prison where the most brutal criminals are residing for life, due to the 400% rise in crime rates. There&#39;s no way for them to escape, as the bridges are filled with mines, a large wall is built around the shoreline, and a police force army is based there to take out any attempted escapees. In 1997, Air Force One is hijacked, so the president escapes in a pod, landing in Manhattan. Ex-special forces war hero/bank robber Snake Plissken is offered his freedom if he can rescue the president, who was on his way to a Hartford Summit meeting as well as a cassette tape (CDs weren&#39;t around in 1981) that contains important information regarding Nuclear Fission within 24 hours. Just to make sure he goes through the mission, Snake has been implanted with two microscopic capsules that will explode within 24 hours, meaning that he&#39;ll be dead if he&#39;s a little late.
The year is 1998. Due to huge crime rates, the United States turns its once great city of New York into a maximum security Manhattan prison where hardcore criminals are put for life. All the bridges leading in and out of the city are mined, a large wall is built along the shoreline and a large police force army is based there to stop or kill any attempted escapees. In route to a conference Summit meeting between China and Soviet Union, the President on board Air Force One is forced to eject in a escape pod when a female terrorist takes over the controls and crashes the plane into a building inside the city. A new prisoner, ex-soldier Snake Plissken is offered his freedom if he goes in, frees the President and finds a tape with important information for the conference. Snake agrees but to ensure his co-operation, he is injected with a small but powerful explosive micro capsules that will only be destroyed if his mission is successful. Snake must set out into the decaying city, filled with immoral criminals, and he must succeed - for his own life.
The definitive action flick. One of Carpenter&#39;s first bigger-budget flicks, EFNY is a highly entertaining action piece graced by the solid tough-guy performance of good ole Kurt. Well-made by Carpenter and his entourage (again working with a somewhat low-budget) and Ernie Borgnine is wonderful as Cabbie. Though the sequel, EF L.A., is made by Carpenter and it does star Kurt again, it was made with a humongous budget and basically has the same storyline, so it is therefore a near-carbon copy. 10/10
OK let&#39;s look at this, the main character of the film... &quot;Snake Pliskin&quot; Now lets look at the main character of metal gear solid??? &quot;Snake Pliskin&quot; wait that&#39;s not right... there the same? as if, but surly that&#39;s just a coincidence Jake? Let&#39;s look closer? Hmmm, husky painful voice? Shared by both characters! Hmmm accurate stubble as well, that&#39;s awfully Queer! Wait they both have long black hair to! And the exact same Stance? These to men on missions&#39; surly musk know there not alone? For Those of you movie peoples who don&#39;t play video games &quot;metal gear solid&quot; is the title of a series of stealth games based around nuclear war and saving people of authority... such as your president in the film I&#39;m on About! I just feel so amazed that i haven&#39;t herd of this similarity before! The movie was made in the 80&#39;s long before the game was made. but if your a snake fan (talking of the game here&quot; you will notice snake doesn&#39;t have an eye-patch, no problem my friends, as in the 3rd game Pliskin gets shot in the eye right? I know its his other eye but how similar! All the snake from the film needs is a bandanna! both stealthy slithers are identical! The true twin snakes, even in the game snake says the classic &quot;call me snake&quot; in fact he always says it! i thought that if your a fan of the film then you might want to research how snake is doing fighting foes in his 3 games! I just watched the film with my girlfriend and we both almost exploded out of our seats exclaiming &quot;oh my god&quot; bit we just said it at normal register instead.<br/><br/>just a very exited game fan, who cant spell, talking about similarities
For about half the film, Carpenter's narrative economy and explosive visual style (incorporating some marvellous model work of the new Manhattan skyline) promise wonders. The trouble is that his characters neither develop nor interact dynamically, so the plot gradually winds down into predictable though highly enjoyable histrionics.
The most logical reason is that he did it in retaliation. He felt cheated by Hauk because he was not told about the explosive charges in his neck until AFTER he agreed to take on the mission and the injection, and thereby endangering his life. This is the same as his motive for doing a similar thing in <a href="/title/tt0116225/">Escape from L.A. (1996)</a> when he shuts down the Earth. In the sequel Snake tells the President, &quot;You better hope I don&#39;t make it back.&quot; Another reason could be that Snake broke the tape out of respect for those who helped him escape and who died: Cabbie, Maggie, and Brain. Keep in mind, the President (Donald Pleasance) wasn&#39;t too appreciative of the others (saying only that they did a &quot;service to their country&quot;), and was more worried about how he was going to look on TV to address the summit leaders. And of course, it could be that being the cynical anti-hero that Snake is, he really doesn&#39;t give a f*. The contents of the tape are never explicitly revealed in the movie, but we can make certain assumptions.<br/><br/>Hauk states that the United States is at war, and that the President was on his way to a summit called the Hartford Summit. China and the Soviet Union are waiting at the summit, so the implication is that (in the movie&#39;s alternate future) the U.S. is at war with them. Hauk says that the President&#39;s arrival is &quot;critical to the fate of the human race,&quot; so the summit is most likely a last-ditch effort to put an end to World War III, an all-out nuclear war. Without the President and the tape, Hauk says, the representatives of China and the Soviet Union will go back to their countries, presumably to continue fighting the war.<br/><br/>One possibility is that the tape contains the speech that the President was going to deliver at the Summit. That seems unlikely, since there&#39;s no reason the President couldn&#39;t have improvised a new speech containing the basic theme of the old one. Besides, the President could have written the speech down instead of recording it on a tape, and his staff would have had a copy of the speech.<br/><br/>When Snake asks what is on the tape, Hauk replies by asking Snake what he knows about cold fusion. Cold fusion was, at the time of the movie&#39;s production, a theoretical process to create unlimited energy. At one point in the cab, a brief portion of the tape is played. The voice on the tape describes radioactive elements before it&#39;s shut off. So we know the contents of the tape are related to nuclear technology.<br/><br/>This leaves two possibilities. One is that the tape&#39;s recording contains a description of some revolutionary form of nuclear power which the President is sharing with the Communist nations. Giving the technology to the enemy might be a goodwill gesture or revealing the technology might have been a condition of Russia and China&#39;s appearance at the summit. Another possibility might be that the tape describes all of the nuclear secrets of the United States. Revealing these secrets might be (again) a goodwill gesture to the enemy or part of the terms of the summit. Either way, the President failing to deliver the technology ends all hope of the summits success.<br/><br/>But the boring answer is that it really doesn&#39;t matter what was on the tape in the briefcase, as the tape and the briefcase is a &#39;MacGuffin&#39;, a plot device to get the story going. There is a fan-made one called <a href="/title/tt1753790/">Escape from New Jersey (2010)</a>. Set Straight after Escape From New York, we find Snake Plissken stuck in New Jersey with his new found freedom on the line when his path crosses that of Armando Barone, the crime kingpin of the Garden State. With his Presidential pardon in Barone&#39;s grasp, Snake is once again forced to re-steal the money that got him sent to New York Prison in the first place. Can Snake pull off the job? Will he ever truly be free? But more importantly, can he escape New Jersey? This one is directed by a fan of the original two movies <a href="/name/nm2031205/">Chris R. Notarile</a> and stars <a href="/name/nm4142591/">Hector De La Rosa</a> as Snake.  a5c7b9f00b
