my opinion represent the movie have get a very solid potential to be one of the most powerful sci fi drama and but instead and it turn into a nasty piece of cinema . couldn not this movie get along without that phallic statuette with which a lonely cat woman be kill . couldn not be those disgust human like furniture be avoid . couldn not the sex or rape or beat scene be less showcasing . sure it could . those scene do not make the movie well and but ruin it ( at least for me ) . i have an impression that the director do not control himself and do not know where to stop . a real artist must have that feeling inside himself . mad max be art and while this movie be not . i can easily guess and that my opinion be not in the general stream but i have to point it out . i buy this movie on dvd ( i trust imdb rating too much those day ) and i think i will have to throw it away and while there be too many scene which i want to skip . i repeat represent it have very strong potential . if the initial material have be professionally cut and the movie would be marvellous sci fi drama ( like solyaris ) . but it get into a ditch with those dirty and low element . camera work doesn not save it . besides and anyone can use classical music . it be not a plus . use your own beautifully compose and that will be a boost . to finish it all with a slash and i have the same unpleasant experience when watch caligula . also a dirty movie but with great potential . sorry to say and but it be a raw product represent negative . thanks for attention .
