Formulaic like you said, but well done within the formula and carried by Jackman's charisma. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE DUKE Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 The original Mad Max is super boring 80% of the way through, but the last 20 minutes are great. The Road Warrior and Beyond Thunderdome are good watches though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Road Warrior and Beyond Thunderdome are good watches though Everyone I think can agree the original Mad Max is not that great, honestly that is not saying anything outlandish at all, everyone knows that the rest are far better. It was George Miller's first full length film so got to give him some slack. I would say they probably go in this order. Mad Max: Fury Road Mad Max: Road Warrior Mad Max: Beyond the Thunderdome Mad Max Beyond the Thunderdome the first half of the movie is outstanding and bad to the bone, but then when he leaves to that little kid fairy land it gets pretty lame. But the first part is awesome and that fight scene is historic. The Road Warrior battle chase scene was the best ever until Fury Road came along and out did it because of advances it camera technology and technology in general. Fury Road really took it to a level probably no one can touch, who would put that kind of time in to make real vehicles like that? No one. Where are the Star Wars ships from the new movies? They do not exist, at least the originals had the micro versions which was tangible and real impressive as well. These massive real life vehicles in this day and age, no one would even tough a project like that.....and they are in some financial scuffle over making the next one because of some owed money they did not get, pretty sad on Warner Bros part I must say.
