Nocturnal Issue III | Page 38

I love watching films. If I fail my A-Levels, it’s because I was watching and reading about films instead of revising. These are the best films I’ve seen so far this year; obviously a girl only has time to go to the cinema once a week – so films haven’t purposely been left out, I just haven’t had a chance to see them yet! (These are all pretty specific to my taste so if you disagree with any of it, I invite you to debate me, one on one.) Here goes:

1. MAD MAX: FURY ROAD

Happy Feet director George Miller, resurrects his 70’s post-apocalyptic franchise with some of the most visceral and thrilling action you will see this decade. Instead of men fighting down dark corridors, we see women blazing through the desert

attempting to reclaim their humanity in a world where everyone is ‘Mad’. Technically amazing, this could have

been a silent film, and would have had the same kick in the throat impact. Not that the dialogue is bad, just Mad Max: Fury Road is the most action fuelled action film in recent memory, and makes Avengers: Age of Ultron look like Sunday morning children’s television. See this at the biggest, largest cinema you can find.
