It’s hard to talk about a post-apocalyptic setting without referencing Mad Max in general, but obviously Mad Max 2 is the quintessential one... Yeah, I mean it's definitely something that I feel like has influenced my work.

For The Raid 2, I think the influences are probably a little bit wider... I looked at a lot of Korean cinema, obviously. I also looked at a lot of Hong Kong cinema... and in terms of action, I was obviously watching a lot of Mad Max 2 and The French Connection...

If you look at something like ‘Mad Max 2,’ there are very little lines of dialogue in it. All the character and all the plot is revealed through action. [...] That's a huge lesson from a lot of action movies, that I still learn from.
