'The Warriors', anyone?

This story sounds not identical to The Warriors, but very similar. Does anyone else feel this way?

Except for having a chase in New York, it really does not sound similar at all. The Warriors involved a group of hardened gang members being chased by a bunch of other gangs through New York. This is about a few rich kids who get caught up in things they have no business being involved in and how they are forced to adapt (or not adapt, in some cases). There was a website with casting information that gave some details about the characters, including spoilers about some of their fates.

The idea was probably taken from the "Warriors"

Funny, now instead of "The Warriors", you make it sound like "Judgement Night".

That was actually the thouht that came into my mind when I heard about the plot! I used to love the 'Warriors' movie when I was younger, and this sounds almost like it. It is vary similaire. I would agree to that, but not to how it is exactly like it. The Warriors was with gangs and such.

no comparison whatsoever... warriors is a classic, this is... a big waste of time. lame.

Um, no. You must not have particularly well-honed critical thinking skills if you even remotely think the two films have anything in common aside from being set in New York and involving a chase. You're probably another weak-brained American kiddie who has received nothing more than Marxist lowest-common-denominator education. You could compare it with 'Judgement Night,' at best.

'The Warriors' is a classic. 'NYC Underground' is just a predictable, boring romp in an NYC tunnel. Not to mention all the New Yawk ghetto culture was just irritating.
