The Cleveland Movie Blog: Mad Max: Fury Road
http://www.clevelandmovieblog.com/2015/05/mad-max-fury-road.html

Wednesday, May 20, 2015. Good Kill (opening May 22nd). Review by Milan Paurich. Is a bit like an Oliver Stone movie on Quaaludes. Certainly the topical subject—drone warfare in the post-digital age—is uber-Stone-y, but the execution is dreamy and purposefully disorienting. It’s as though the DOORS. Era Stone had directed WORLD TRADE CENTER. Writer-director Andrew Niccol’s background in thinking man’s sci-fi ( GATTACA. And THE TRUMAN SHOW.
