It's been quite some years since revisiting this. It was a popular VHS video rent for us snotty teens in the eighties. With an unknown Mel Gibson here as well (IIRC Gallipoli was his breakthrough role). And all of a sudden The Road Warrior came up on the big screen. Damn, what a cinematic experience then, and a classic example of a higher budget successful sequel (and with God knows how many crappy rip offs following during that era lmao). Also a quite clever transition since the "road warrior" character more or less is born in the third act here.

Since this little Aussie wide spread VHS action flick, Miller as we know kept making these dystopic motor way based action flicks. Always including theatrical villians with super serious oneliners, successfully making them increasingly both refined and epic. Watching this from 1979 and compairing it to Mad Max: Fury Road from 2015 - despite the decades gap and some tonal differences, the bloodline is clear. So, bring on Furiosa!

I've been meaning to get the Mad Max Anthology in 4K.

Argylle

The national nightmare of this trailer playing at the beginning of EVERY movie I've seen in the theater for the last 4 months is finally over. (check my letterboxd, it's a f**kton of times).

[MY FULL REVIEW]
2.5/5

 

[Boom]

That hard cut to the present day

Those last five minutes were really tough.

 

[squeekness]

Tombstone

 

[Luigi]

Poor Things

Doesn't have the best pacing at times but really did enjoy Bella's journey of self discovery. Mark Ruffalo was such a slimeball in this film.

8/10
