10 2015 Movies That Are Destined To Disappoint You

6. Mad Max: Fury Road

Mad Max: Fury Road has a pretty good trailer. Boasting an unforgettable soundtrack and brilliantly paced editing it promises a great career for whoever put the marketing piece together. The only bit that let it down was the pre-title sting. You know, the bit that's an almost unedited part of the movie it's trying to sell. Over-reaching special effects and a hint of unintended ridiculousness, it's a reminder that trailer quality and movie quality aren't always synonymous. OK, so there's what looks set to be some pretty impressive spectacle in George Miller's return to post-apocalyptic Australia, but so much of what makes the trailer, which had everyone treating the reboot of Mad Max like a Star Wars or Jurassic Park, work isn't actually tied to the film. Slap in Transformers: Age Of Extinction clips into the template and it'd still be impressive. And, when you strip away the trailer's sheen all your left with is what Fury Road really is - a belated follow-up that's been in development hell ever since the third one premiered. Heck, even since Tom Hardy replaced Mel Gibson the film's had an unbelievably troubled production - it's almost two years since cameras stopped rolling, with the release date consistently pushed back. Some good imagery and a competent trailer editor over at Warner Bros. aside, there's not much going for Mad Max.
