    Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — George Miller

    George Miller has proved at 70 years of age to return to the action genre by going old school with no CGI tricks, but also to make a masterpiece with "Fury Road". He is the truly the exceptional director of our time.

      Too hit and miss for me. The first Mad Max is nothing special and Happy Feet isn't my cup of tea, but Mad Max 3, Witches of Eastwick, Babe: Pig in the City and Happy Feet 2 are all pretty crappy.

        The first Mad Max was fan5b4tastic for a first time feature director with a low-budget and its impact is undeniable. For its genre, Happy Feet is a great achievement and deservedly gave Miller an Oscar for animated movie. Witches of Eastwick is also great for what it is- a big budget mainstream Hollywood movie.

          Considering the budget he worked with on MAD MAX-79' and what he ended up giving us and the kinetic energy of the film, he did remarkably well. He was in top form with MAD MAX 2-81', and I feel this was worthy of a Best Picture nod. It set a benchmark for futuristic action films and I have never forgotten the first time I saw it at the cinema. I also enjoy WITCHES OF EASTWICK-87' and while a change of pace for him, it is an 80's cult favorite for many. As for BABE: PIG IN THE CITY and HAPPY FEET, not my thing really; but still very well done and popular.
