This was definitely a feminist film and so interesting what you said about the characters being partly written by the same person who wrote the Vagina Monologues. Your film reviews are brilliant :) <br /><br />Ashley Christie x https://imamovienerd.wordpress.com/ x Ashley Christiehttps://imamovienerd.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1633103281532247659.post-70220076744549093762015-05-18T09:47:12.620+01:002015-05-18T09:47:12.620+01:00Hope you like it!

Tom Hardy played a very little part in it but I gave it 4 stars for the underlying themes which I felt were original and refreshing. As a whole, the film is not great but it's worth a watch I think if not purely for the gender roles in it.

When I went to IMDb, I found out his name was Immortan Joe. I think your review is spot on but I liked it a little less than you did. The action was amazing. I thought it needed more time with the characters. I'll compare it to Mad Max:Beyond Thunderdome, which I thought was a better movie (although many will disagree with me). That movie had well-developed characters like Aunty Entity, who was a strong female presence. There was more time seeing how Bartertown functioned and there was more time seeing how the children lived in the wilderness.<br />In the new movie, *SPOILERS* when we finally see the older women, they just pop out of the desert and we have no idea how they've been living. I am glad that the older lady who had the seeds had some time to explain how she had saved them before the women and the men had their climactic battle scenes, though.<br />Charlize Theron is the star of this movie and I liked her performance. Tom Hardy is a good actor but *SPOILERS* I didn't like how they rebooted Mad Max into a lizard-eating PTSD sufferer who would drive off and leave women in the desert. I would have preferred a straight out sequel and they kept the basic Mad Max character shown in the original film. I am happy that there is a strong feminine message in this movie, though. Overall, I think it's worth the admission price to see it.<br />I'm so happy that you have been invited to future screenings and I look forward to what you'll share with us in the future :)Gilhttp://greek-arete.tumblr.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1633103281532247659.post-83612158384643054292015-05-16T16:27:07.784+01:002015-05-16T16:27:07.784+01:00I haven't seen the original or this one yet bu...I haven't seen the original or this one yet but I like that it seems to be more then action as I don't really like action.
