Mad Max (2015)
Why make this stupid error?
I can't believe what this movie could have been if they hadn't made the stupid mistakes as using naval tactics as sole battle tactics... While generaly the best starting point for a desert environment one critical adjustment has to be made; water doesn't whirl up and create hard to see through dust clouds.
In the first scene he could have easily gotten away by creating a distraction by whirling up sand once he hit the open space by driving zig-zag or in a circle. Once the attackers are disoriented either use this decoy to get away or snipe out the command vehicle.
damnit
Workers (2013)
Slowly yet beautifully developing movie about life and work. "worklife" i.e. life that consists mostly of working
This isn't a complete review of the movie but rather an addendum to JvH48's review.
My criticism of which would be the lack of understanding of the first and last scene. "[...] some of the scenes seem endless, particularly the one at the beginning where we have a slowly changing view on the sea, without any hint whatsoever how it relates to the plot at hand."
The first and last scene connect in a beautifully simplistic way the two, separately developed story lines of Lidia and Rafael. Their deceased son as the common element. This gives a wholly different point of view. Work as their way to escape traumatic events. Lifelong Catharsis. Maybe.
