About the blog:

Well, hello! Thanks for stopping by to read my opinions about movies that I see. Some are older and most are new. Some I go to see in the theaters (both live performances and movies) and some I watch from the comfort of my own couch and even more, I will watch from the amazing Netflix app. Of course, these will be my personal thoughts about the targeted item, however, it will give you an idea of whether it's a colossal waste of time or worth a shot!

MY REVIEW:
I have to be entirely truthful about this; I was not a big fan of the idea of Mad Max as it was in the 70's. I get it.. dystopian future, things are bad, etc, yeah, yeah, yeah.

What did I like?  I like the visual place that I was taken to during my two-hour stay at the Lynnhaven Mall AMC Theater. Visually stunning. Fairly imaginative.. few pieces of wit and humor.

What didn't I like? The thugs who run the world just odd and seemed disjointed from the idea of the water starved world. Women subjugated to baby factories and "milk for the oddly bred aristocracy."

I did like the Charlize Theron role but the idea for me was realistically, I could have watched the trailer fifteen times back to back and could have seen enough.
