I have never been into mad max as a series so this was gonna be a skip for me.

After very strong word of mouth I checked it out. I really did like it. Like others mentioned it's beautiful to look at and the action - in particular the motorcycle scene was pure piff.

But I gotta admit when I saw it was nominated for a Globe for best picture and best director I genuinely hit the :dahell:

I think it's worthy of it's praise. Perfect movies don't exist, and nikkas can't wait to pull flaws to troll people who enjoy pure piff that overcomes its flaws.


:comeon: The movie had no real story, plot was lacking, and very limited dialogue. Yea the action and cinematography was great but it wasn't great enough to overshadow those issues.

My expectations for the movie was way to high when I first saw. Once it ended, I was like, is that it?:francis:

You may find it overrated but the only thing that that opinion does for you is set you apart as a person who clearly has no understanding of fundamental concepts in film making.:yeshrug:

Thread title might as well be 'Are you a pleb or nah?'
Yeah ok :skip:

How are people being bored by this movie? It's action wire to wire :mindblown:

I bet these same people were watching The Raid like:

'Oh, now they have to fight Mad Dog two on one?'

Overrated and Pretentious are two words that should never be used when discussing film.

It's just lazy. Go into detail as to why you didn't like the movie.
I think people have though, including warhols post this thread is based on.

Visually it's great but if we are being real that's where it stops being GOAT. Was the dialogue next level, no. Was the plot next level, no. It basically is a long as car chase and the as mentioned earlier the excuse that you have to just take it for what it is, is flimsy. I guess Harold and Kumar is GOAT if you just take it for what it is too right :troll:

It's a beautifully shot film with a good score that was heralded as a GOAT film when it's not :yeshrug:

I think some are taking it wrongly. People (for the most part) are saying its overrated not that it's trash or not enjoyable.

the Raid is dope. Mad Max is honestly boring. Gave me no reason to care about any character until half way through and by then i had already realized the film wasnt for me personally :manny:
