Here's a regular feature from the Movie and TV Gorilla recapping some of the
news that's been happening for the week, in case you missed it…
1. Mad Max: Fury Road now in NZ cinemas!
I was lucky enough to get invited to the premiere viewing of Mad Max: Fury Road
on Wednesday night at IMAX on Queen St. From the trailers I knew it was going
to be an epic action film but I hoped that it wouldn't ruin my memories of the
original. Trust me, this didn't disappoint! The action got my adrenaline
flowing, the costumes and sets were amazing plus Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron
kick ass. Go see it this weekend!
9 bananas out of 10!
