My Review-
I was a fan of John Carpenter's first film "Halloween" which wasn't my favorite horror film when I was young. However now it is one of my favorite horror films of all time. So I went into this having never seen this film; but watching some of the sequel to see how good this film was. It holds an 84% on rotten tomatoes. For me i thought it was a little too slow at first, and then when it picked up it was good. The action was well paced but that is about it, I did like Kurt Russell in role as "Snake" the criminal that is sent in to save the president played by the Donald Pleasence from Halloween. that is another reason why i wanted to watch it was because of him. Then when I saw that Issac Hayes was in the film that was pretty cool. He played "The Duke" pretty well. I did like the action in the movie and it ended well, so in my opinion it did not need a sequel if it so bad when it came out. In some parts I found myself falling a sleep a little but when it picked up I was alert and was into the movie until the very end.
