A betrayal by the Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron), one of his trusted lieutenants, sets a massive chase in motion, with Joe’s war parties tracking the Imperator and her cargo–the enslaved “Wives” of Joe. Haunted by his memories and the post-apocalyptic rigor of life, Max (Tom Hardy) is quickly imprisoned by the Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne), a despotic warlord taken up in the outback, monopolizing the crucial water supplies of the wastelands. George Miller might be able to teach us a thing or two about that!įollowing a thirty-year dormancy that many thought was closer to death than a vacation, the rip-roaring world of Mad Max was given a jolt the size of a lightning bolt with 2015’s Fury Road, a long-gestating follow-up to the Aussie adventure saga. What matters in making one explosion more enjoyable than another? But what’s the difference? Both feature giant robots smashing around cities. Of course we can all share our opinions and have different takes, but the general consensus of critics (whom have their place but shouldn’t tell you what you do or don’t like!) would say that Transformers: Age of Extinction is “bad” (per Rotten Tomatoes’ 18% score) and Pacific Rim is “good” (with 72%).

Then still there’s the dissection of what makes a “good” action movie and a “bad” one. So maybe it’s the ratio of runtime-to-(physical) action that determines a true action film? But it also runs at nearly three hours long, and features extended scenes of dialogue, and character development not related to physical action. But is Heat an action movie? Why, it features extended scenes of gunfights and kinetic, hurried movement. You think of Die Hard and Commando, and clearly those fit our notion of what an “action movie” is. Action films can be so difficult to discuss, and even before that they’re difficult to qualify.
