This would mean they would have had to dig up famous landmarks (such as St. Obviously I know this is based on a fantasy novel and the entire concept is outlandish science-fiction, but really? So firstly I would have to ask how the feck mankind is supposed to have put their cities onto such huge chassis. Well although this sounds cool on paper (in a kind of GamesWorkshop related way) I also found it to be simply ludicrous. As I'm sure many are aware the basic idea in this movie is how civilisation has crumbled after a devasting war and the remaining humans have, for some reason, decided to mount all the remaining cities on wheels so they can 'drive them around' so to speak. OK so let me start this review by explaining my initial thoughts on this movie and its basic premise.
