<p>The score reminded me of the lighter moments in Start Wars and LOTRs... <strong>not gritty enough</strong> for Mad Max imo. </p>

<p>I had the same feeling but not so much with the score, but with the look (cinematography I guess), it seemed a bit Star Wars prequels like.</p>

<p>It's been a while since I watched the old ones but in my memory they use old 70s/80s cars not some retro steampunk ones that feature in this. Â </p> -

<p>Yeah, needed better music, the visuals looked amazing. Remember, it's the marketing department that chucks those together. This version was better;</p>

<p>I'm guessing that Bane-ish type mask came into play after the release of the Dark Knight Rises.</p>

<p>Serious question: Is Mad Max still based in post apocalyptic Oz or is it just taking into account that a lot of Poms now live there?</p> -

<p>Check that: Now seems to be in a place called "The Wasteland". So it could be in post apocalyptic Oz or modern day Palmerston North.</p> -
This does not look good. Sean Penn is no Liam Neeson. <br><br><a class="bbc_url" href="http://www.hd-trailers.net/movie/the-gunman/">http://www.hd-trailers.net/movie/the-gunman/</a>

<p>"The Possibilities Are Endless". It's a doco about Edwyn Collins (you know, he sang "Never Met a Girl Like You Before" in 1995) who had a catastrophic stroke a few years ago and was left pretty much unable to speak or understand much of anything. The film is about his way back to making more music. It's beautifully made and important, but really, really, REALLY hard to watch. I had to turn it off several times and go back to it once I could handle it again. It's certainly life affirming, and I'm glad I saw it, but I will almost certainly NEVER watch it a second time. It's just too hard.</p>

Take your kids to see Paddington, it's pretty bloody good

<p>Couldnt watch all of Noah. I just couldnt do it.</p>
<p>We watched The Equalizer the other night, which if you looked past the crappy characters and the bullsh1t story line, was quite enjoyable. </p>
<p>We enjoyed Guardians of the Galaxy. I liked that it didnt take itself seriously. It was a rare gem amongst a sea of Marvel turds.</p> -

<p>This is the End - Not the biggest Seth Rogan or James Franco fan but this comedy about a bunch of obnoxious Hollywood actors trying to survive the rapture was pretty funny, especially Jonah Hill's Rosemary's Baby moment.</p>

<p>Seeing Michael Cera impaled on light pole was excellent. Loved this scene:</p>

<p>It had good bits, but was a bit dull. I liked the creation montage, <strong>and making Noah batshit crazy. </strong>Emma Watson was very good in it</p>

<p>That was great, Crowe was perfect for that TBH. I don't get the Emma Watson 'thing' so she was just another character in it to me.</p>
<p>Â </p>
<p>But a bit dull probably explains it perfectly and TBF Exodus was much the same.</p> -
