Action that never stops, decent commie themes, very original story, and amazing effects. I guess they didn’t need to make the main protagonist a white dude, otherwise it’s the one film I can watch again and again.

Am I allowed to post links pirate sites or is that banned??

    The absolute Hollywood pinnacle of style over substance, a style so well-defined and layered that it becomes a substance in and of itself. From this foundation a solid and simple story is told, flavored with interesting, iconic characters (iconic as in that’s how they’re written, as archetypes, not the soyface vernacular) and carried with fun action.

    My favorite little fun fact about the movie is that the storyboards, all 3500 of them, came before a word of the screenplay was written. Miller worked with 5 artists to get the look of the film solidified and then made a concrete script to direct from based on that.
