Movie Review by Movie Addict
October 16th, 2007

From the Grind House to stardom

Before Babe and Happy Feet, George Miller gave us characters that were just plain weird. Loud explosions, killing, bare breasts - they all made for 70s grindhouse fare.

Out of that mess, came Mel Gibson. This was his second film, and the one that got him noticed. A star on screen; a mess in his personal life. Love him or hate him, he has given us hours of enjoyment at the movies and on DVD.

Miller's film features brilliant editing, outstanding sound, an enchanting score, and some great acting from Hugh Keays-Byrne as Toecutter.

An enjoyable trip back in time.

Heretical as it may seem, I never much cared for this film. My g/f wants me to go in for a psychiatric evaluation over it. *shrug*

She has a thing for young Mel, eh?
