IMO, Mad Max Fury Road was WAAAY better than the original Mad Max; in fact, it's on a whole other level. I was probably one of the few who thought the original was kind of crappy. I remember when Fury Road came out, some people were calling it 'The greatest action movie ever made'. However, even though it is a good action movie, IMO it is definitely NOT 'the greatest of all time'.
The original movie is intense. Even pure in its own twisted way. Something you can't buy with a big budget. I saw a year ago for the first time. Somehow it reminds me of The Birds.Quote:
