Warriors, The: Theatrical Cut Reconstruction (HD)

The Warriors has always been a favorite of mine in Walter Hill's filmography. This attempt at recreating its theatrical cut in the most accurate, high-quality fashion possible is nothing short of flawless. TM2YC once again does a spectacular job editing-wise, creating what is by far the definitive version of this gem of a film.

Great work. This was badly needed by the fans, and it's THE way to watch the movie.

I reformatted this down to a .mkv, so I hope I didn't lose anything and I don't want to think it affects my review at all, but I'm throwing that out there to start. Also, having only had the Directors cut of the film and only seen that cut to date, I can't speak to how perfectly this restoration stacks up to the original theatrical cut, but I think the best review I can give it is that I largely couldn't tell what had been cut back into the movie and what was already there.

Most of the transitions are seemless if not close to it, and the movie has enough of it's own rough jump cuts that any extra fit right in. I notice a couple of moments of slight stuttering and a couple abrupt jumps which is why I didn't give it an outright 10 on visual editing/video quality, but otherwise this feels like an absolutely essential restoration that does nothing but improve upon the most widely available release.

The best way to watch The Warriors now, perfection defined. Truly amazing and I'm glad future generations will now have a way to enjoy this classic the way it was meant to be seen. Thank you!

Excellent cut and very enjoyable view.
When i was much younger, i saw this move (dont know about the version), but i could not cpmprehend.
Everything went over my head, and we kids just liked it for the Gang part of it.
Now i could finally see it, the way it was supossed to be and with my older brain :)

Liked it a lot and in my view, this edit is flawless!
