This person should be of the same race as Alex Cox and Tsui Hark. When I saw the bald War Boy in the film, the first thing I thought of was Repo Man's Cult classic in the 1980s, and then I saw the tragic dance of demons in the desert. The plot, naturally, has the association of "Knife" or "New Dragon Inn". However, George Miller from Australia is not a generalist who is used to imitating. As early as the 1980s, he started his career with the Mad Max movie series, and has successively won the popularity of today's biggest names in the film industry such as Mel Gibson and Nicole Kidman. This is the fourth installment in the Mad Max series, still filled with 80s nonsensical punk characters and imaginative combat vehicles, weird rock metal soundtracks, and exaggerated and unrestrained violent renderings are also prominent styles in his works. The continuous action scenes make people breathless. Just the sandstorm at the beginning and the final let-off scene are absolutely worth the ticket price. The bloody and thrilling levels are constantly escalating, which strongly stimulates the audience's audio-visual nerves. In addition to the nostalgic Cult taste of various modeling and soundtracks, several female characters set by the director are also worth pondering. The theme of the film is also brought out by the rebellious women led by Charlize Theron, which is difficult to imagine in many male-dominated commercial action films. The environmental metaphor of the lack of resources caused by human beings' constant expedition is absolutely shocking. Of course, in the end, the idea of everyone giving up their original intention of defecting and returning to their homes makes the realistic meaning of the work clearer and deeper. The reputation of the best movie of the year is indeed true. . Enjoyed it again on the flight back from Seattle.
