I look forward to some more DU discussion on it, after it opens! villager May 2015 #9

Do you need to be familiar with the earlier movies to understand the plot? Bjorn Against May 2015 #10

No. It's pretty self-contained, including references to Max's backstory. villager May 2015 #11

Sounds good, I will have to check it out. Bjorn Against May 2015 #13

I know what you mean. Other action films will be calibrated against it. villager May 2015 #63

Sorry. I have no desire to see a Mel Gibson remake. longship May 2015 #57

Except it was not a remake and Mel Gibson was only an actor in the originals. dilby May 2015 #58
