Big stars in a big mess called City Limits
!!!!!! This review contains spoilers !!!!!!

"City Limits" is one of those flicks were big stars were apparently so desperate for work (or food) that they apparently never saw tthe script of the awful films they signed to be in. How bad is this flick? Well it's gotten a 1.8 rating on IMDB. On the bright side, this is one of those flicks where as a movie fan you laugh at the big names that signed on for this flick. People like James Earl Jones (Darth Vader from Star Wars), Kim Cattrall
(before Sex and The City), and Rae Dawn Chong.

Another bright side is that this flick is funny and never gets boring. I

"City Limits" is one of these low budget Tv like movies starring a lot of big name stars.

Dr. Forrester describes it as the "low point of James Earl Jones career". The plot is about a couple of teenage riders in the future fighting against each other after the Apocalypse. They then unite against an evil corporation. The movie itself is loaded with cheesy acting, bad visuals and a couple of funny fights. Oh yeah James Earl Jones narrates over half the film but he is so unintelligible it's hilarious. It sounds like he is either mumbling or drunk the whole time.

The Bots have a couple of memorable jokes including "this is cheesy rider", and "There must be a way out of this film", "Chips fifteen years from now" and "there trying to pass off this film as being written".

This movie despite how bad it is again is fun to watch. It never gets boring because there is always a gag or too done by the bots that makes the movie fun.

The story might have been great but the movie is so poor directed and with the poor budget it only results as a big gag.
