effin98says...Spot on.
RedSkyI fucking loved this movie.
ChaosEngineHow could you not? It was Fucking Awesome.
I fucking loved this movie.
XaielaoThe spectacle of it was awesome, but a good modern action film still pales in comparison to a good 80's one. Were was the blood? Besides the good guys, so you'd feelz for them and the main bad guy so you'd be like 'fuck yea! DIE MOFO!' Besides those instances there was a lot of violence and gunplay but so little carnage. Guys being shot and flying 30 feet through the air without blood splatter or wound to be seen. This movie was so hyped for its practical fx but all I saw was a lot of CG that was cleverly hidden and violence without any actual violence in it. It had an R rating not because it was gory and violent but because some random extra flashed her tit for 5 seconds. Fucking american puritanism. Calling the plot thin is an understatement.. it was literally consisted of half a page of writing.
Over-all fun movie with some cool spectacle. But still pale imitation of the original.
ChaosEngineHonestly, I don't really give a damn about the blood. It simply doesn't matter for me.... if it's there, great, but I certainly didn't sit through the movie thinking "damn if only there was more blood".
And yeah, there was CGI that was cleverly hidden.... so what? That's the point of good CGI. But there was certainly plenty of practical effects.
Agree with your point about American puritanism... what is it with that country that it loses its shit every time they see a nipple.
As for a pale imitation of the original, the first Mad Max benefits greatly from nostalgia and conflating it with the far better Road Warrior movie. As a standalone movie, it's above average, but hardly a classic.

PaybackI find it absolutely mystifying that it is virtually impossible to make Charlize Theron look bad. I mean, even in Monster, you spent the whole movie thinking, "Wow, Charlize Theron is amazing."
ChaosEngineI think she's really over-rated. She's certainly pretty, but I really don't think she's got much in the way of acting chops. And yes, I've seen Monster. That oscar should have gone to the make up team.
