Before you say Mad Max, they were making these films 20 yrs before Mel Gibson came along. Basically take any of Clint Eastwood's westerns and put it after the nuclear Holocaust. Great film for budget they had. My two gripes is the overuse of guns and gas powered vehicles. They try to justify it with a old military armory as the death riders base. But still a weak premise. And they set up a nice powered sniper rifle in the beginning but they never use it again. The best gun in the whole film is a throwaway used once to hunt down dinner. Yes most of the acting is weak and stiff but so we're 99% of these films. Also biggest continuity issue is several struggles use the clear sound of clothes being torn but after the struggle not a single new tear in their clothes.

Ignore the trolls in the reviews. It's not up to Black Mirror standards but still a solidly put together show. No big names but that's intentional. Plenty of Easter eggs for classic fans to pick up on. Even his own version of the classic plane episode. Yes some of it's political but so was plenty of the original if you paid attention. And if you don't get who the kid president was your oblivious. Peele does what the other two reboots failed to do and takes it back to it's source. If you think it's drivel, then you obviously haven't seen 90% of today's general fair on TV.
