Simply incredible

Rating: Null/10 (4 March 2016)

Not the film, but how it managed to capture awards, acclaim, and all the noise about what is no more than an action clone with nothing to add, nothing new, nothing script, nothing plot, nothing characters. Simply incredible. Who do you really remember from the characters? How do you relate in your life memories of this story? What shots come to mind as something wonderful in the past season? Entertaining, sure, if you like it.
The original, Mad Max, set the table for a buffet of similar apocalyptic action films. The main character in Max so got our attention that we all know his story, both as character, and where that career went from there.
These reviews began from a real need to write, without the burden of interest in who may read them. Certainly, there is that little niggling hope others will be in some way interested in the words, but, fortunately, it is a very little itch. After a stellar month of writing, it is with a sad heart and tired thumbs to give over the review business to those who seem better able to comprehend the film genre. Glad to just watch em, and enjoy. Even gladder that the desire to write reviews has been stilled and made numb.
