Movies are meant to be viewed in theaters. Sometimes you're not able to and that's fine. But it's especially the case with this movie.


The soundtrack, the visuals and what's going on with the characters with just their body language and when they're not talking, they're still acting their asses off. It's the best action movie of the last decade. The movie wasn't just going to spell out things for you with dialogue like most movies.


But this movie, initially loved and adored on TD, is bashed because it's the cool, new hip trend that happens so many times on here: TDK, TFA, Django Unchained, many of the Marvel movies, and so many more.

We've come full circle.

Circle jerk --> anti jerk --> circle jerk again.

I saw it in theaters. 6/10. The story sucked. I "got it". It was just a really lame story with a really stupid ending.

Best action film of all time

BTW I could totally see Bachman saying what I quoted.

I do not disagree but most people have pretty solid TV's these days. A movie that is considered to be one of the best of the year should be able to translate to people's homes.

Most likely but I really liked Dredd

its a pretty simple movie. Entertaining but pretty simple.

Because Mad Max fans act like they are superior to anyone that did not think the movie was the GOAT. If you are just now watching Mad Max you are going into with Best Picture expectations.

That was a pathetic excuse to explain why this movie is supposed to be great. You are grasping at straws.

The people that say they enjoyed this movie, you are a different breed. However you saw the "beauty" of this film is beyond me, but i guess it's good someone out there found enjoyment in this crapfest.

You don't have to try to sound all high and mighty about why this movie was good. You liked it b/c you like these types of movies, whatever that is. I like the newer Fast and the Furious movies. I'm not going to try to prove to you why they are good movies. I like them b/c I do (as well as a couple hundred million other people in the world). Simple as that, and I can understand why others might not like them.

The reason it was loved at first, is b/c people that saw it first were the people that wanted to see it and were excited about it. Most other people never heard of it, then saw the praise on here, decided to see it after it got out the theaters, and then came back on here to say how bad it was.

It's not some hip trend to not like it. It's a stupid movie that many people didn't enjoy.
