The ending has a lot more impact than the the first film’s, but the rest of it sticks so closely to the formula, it’s the only part that’s an improvement. Carpenter does a good job of using all of LAs biggest cultural elements to hide the sameness, but he also goes badly over the top in the humor & the social commentary’s less subtle than ever. The surf scene & basketball game are both also dumb, but made me grin slightly & even feel a little suspense, respectively.

Boy, this movie is rough. I guess Carpenter is one of those directors whose brain turns to mush once you give him a $50 million budget. Snake Plisskin feels like he's gone from being his only unique character to some bizarre version of the Val Kilmer "Batman Forever" Batman. Every new character he meets is twice as wacky, twice as campy as the last one, and once you get past Campebell's Surgeon-General nothing about this L.A. feels coherent, unlike Escape from New York's strange but cohesive NYC
