Scorched Earth

This is a poor movie, that should be on in the background whilst you do something else, you shouldn't put any time aside to actually watch this, I like Gina and she had great potential to become an action star so why get involved in his drivel. Also, just a small point about the costume designers, one of the premises in the movie is the toxic atmosphere and the reliability on masks and silver?? None of the masks had filters on them which really bugged me, do some research people, masks need filters...

Watchable, giving the plots partly similar to both Clint Eastwood's "Unforgiven" and "Pale Rider" with a bit of Mad Maxish's enemy wasteland cars. Though none of the editing scene to scene were irritating throughout. The actors are average but not imposing enough with the exception of Gina's acting, she is certainly suited for more kick-ass heroine roles in movieland.

Almost the whole humanity was killed by climate change and catastrophes related to those changes and after billions are dead a few guys and gals still driving cars are threatening the climate and therefore hunted down by bounty-hunters - wanted dead or alive. Well, that's a well-dumb-crafted premise I must admit :D

What more to say!? Movie is so so but only if you are a BIG-time fan of the (pos)apocalyptic genre. No new The Road, The Book of Eli or Mad Max etc. here. Tastes like a C-Western, good enough to kill some spare time with nothing else to do.

Only for die-hard fans of the genre who must watch 'em all.

Well, it seems that all women on a path to stardom have to go through this, a cheap revenge movie. I think this actress has a future, and I suppose she knew that this would be a risk. The movie itself is unremarkable. What is mildly interesting is the setup. The movie wants to be a western, but it gets there by a strange setup.

An event in the future creates a Mad Max environment, that just happens to have Western sets, produce cowboy guns and cowboy-like dynamics and costumes, and get this, a silver mine with old fashioned gear and dynamite. The only difference is an air pollution that requires the bad guys to wear filter masks that resemble the bandanas of original movie westerns.

Why? What is gained by giving a familiar setting by such a strained setup? Let's assume it was designed and the intent was to make the story we see more real by contrasting to the setup which is goofy and fakey.

And you know, it works, sort of -- making this seem less terrible than it is.

You can do something better with your time.

I just finish giving Gina Carano good reviews in Heist and now they put her in this trash. Bad script and a waste of her fighting skill and little chance to show acting. Be prepared for a dud.
