Interesting post apocalyptic flick with a young Don Johnson. Low key, slow, thoughtful.

If you are a fan of Mad Max and anything related to post apocalyptic themes then you must see this. It’s a trailblazer!

Cult classic and a very good watch. I’m not sure if this is as self aware as people claim it is, like it’s a very light dark comedy

I'm particular on amazing ratings, but the world building and character chemistry between his telepathic dog is so irresistibly great.

"One of the influences of Fallout, it is a good watch for fans of the game or genre"

Probably the most divisive movie I've ever seen. I'm on the "this was cool" side. Don Johnson and a dog - doesn't get much better than that.

An entertaining movie that heavily influences the wasteland genre.

This is good but the creepier stuff is better than the jokes, you can tell it's very influential but i think it has been surpassed since

Nihilism meets mans best friend in a mad max like story with no hero and no morals. A look into the chaos of a humanity with no society.
