Film Reviews by SS

This is the best action film ever because the stunts you see in the film are real - no CGI rubbish. Forget Fury Road, which was full of CGI because this is the real thing. When you consider that both this and Raiders of the Lost Ark were released in the same year but with Raiders costing around five times as much the action is very "staged" in Raiders especially the Tibet bar fight and truck chase or as I call it "very Hollywood". Gibson is a very brooding anti-hero in this and little dialogue is needed. If you want to watch a "raw" peice of Australian film making at its best I highly recommend this because you will not be disappointed.

George Miller should have in my opinion either have made Fury Road with Mel Gibson regardless of his age or not made it at all. Mad Max is Australian and should have been made there and not mostly in Namibia/South Africa. Also the story what little there is is weak to say the least. If you are a fan of the post-apocalyptic/action/stunt genre then this could still be up your street and that is why I give it one star.
