Freakin' great movie! Seriously, I loved pretty much all of it! Acting-wise, Hoult is doing well for an up-and-comer, Hardy played a good Max, and Theron really stands out! The production and make-up are really nice, the characters are awesome and crazy, Miller's directing is incredible, and the action is all over the place yet done extremely well! Story was pretty dang good too! With all of this, it's filmed really well and in the end, it's a really great movie!

In this post-apocalyptic wasteland we call The Action Genre anno 2015, an unlikely savior emerges; a 70 year old Australian with a love for talking farm animals and dancing penguins, returns to the world he once created, and shows everyone how this shit is done. An unapologetically baroque, meticulously executed, operatic action masterpiece. What a lovely day indeed!

Here comes Mad Max: Fury Road to revive this arid wasteland we call Hollywood filmmaking and to prove that blockbusters need not be one homogeneous mass of bland and boring sameness. It's a visually glorious and furiously raging beast of a film but it also boasts a feminist subtext and a surprising amount of narrative depth. It puts other blockbuster films to shame. What a lovely day!

If you loved the trailers you'll love the film. It's - quite literally - a wild ride. Miller's choreography of thrillingly tactile (and, honestly, peerless) action is as batshit insane as Immortan Joe and his underlings are unique and bizarre. Other things to admire, relish and praise are the bombastic score and, of course, Charlize Theron's one-armed heroine-badass, Imperator Furiosa. The best blockbuster in - again, yes, literally - ages and an instant classic. Witness it.

$150 million action blockbusters aren't supposed to be so good they make you cry from sheer joy. Not just from the furious, relentless, jaw-dropping spectacle, but from its ability to conjure up an entirely original world in which Miller leaves unsaid all which he's so expertly able to convey through characterization and visuals. To say this movie has heart is both trite and an understatement. It might just be the best action film ever made.

This is basically a modern day adaptation of Buster Keaton's The General on PCP, soaked in violent liberation, with an unhinged momentum that makes the Coyote and Roadrunner chase scenes look like cartoons for children (er...). This is a movie where characters at any given moment will commit murder and throw away their lives for one another, fighting tooth and nail, like starving animals, in total desperation, all for a freedom they rightfully deserve. It's invigorating and totally badass.

Every once in a while, not too often, a movie comes around that does not waste one second of your time (like this review just did) MMFR is one of those cherished few moments. It tells a far more interesting backstory with literally less than 10 seconds worth of flashbacks than Godzilla did in the first 40 minutes. That leaves 119 minutes and 50 second worth of bat shit insane crazy action. Trigger warning: It has a girl in it...you know, just in case that hurts your feelings or whatever.

I can't remember the last time I had so much fun watching an action movie. It's essentially made up of multiple violent, high-octane chase sequences with brief areas of calm story progression, but the action scenes contain so many careful subtleties that the film's world and characters really become fully fleshed out in the process of mind-bogglingly exhilarating filmmaking. With everything it was trying, this movie got it all right.

Honestly wow. Probably one of the best shot films we're gonna see this year. Fury Road boasts a continuation of the same vibrant, interesting, and overall stunning world portrayed in the original trilogy, while adding a modern brutality and grittiness to the constant 80's feel. Plus the feminist undertone of the movie, allowed it to portray an understanding of modern issues. If this is what the modern blockbuster becomes, count me in.

A thoroughly enjoyable, hyperactive slice of orange-and-teal-tinged lunacy. Some tremendous action scenes and production design, coupled with very decent performances behind the array of bizarre characters, really help the film capture the essence of what was good about the previous instalments. Hardy underplays quite nicely here, giving the excellent Theron's character room to breathe; this works well. There's plenty going on under the surface to make it more than an extended car chase. Great!

It absolutely delivers. The glorious high-octane stunts accompanied by a pulse-pounding OST had me pumped long after leaving the cinema. The visuals were jaw-dropping with some shots matching the beauty found in Attenborough's Planet Earth, with road hogs tearing up the plains instead of migratory herds. The bizarre yet fully fleshed characters round out what'll be a modern classic. This is one to revisit for many years to come.

The most Road Warrior movie since, well, The Road Warrior. "Plot" spoiler ahead: I was in the bathroom after the film and two guys were discussing the movie. One of them said,"There was no plot. They drove one way, then the other way and some stuff blew up and some cars crashed along the way. That's it." I said, "Do you realize you just described the greatest movie I've ever heard of?" He got all excited and beamed, "I know, right?"

It amazes me that a world that's so insane and bizarre as this one can legitimately feel more authentic than action movies that are set in the current time. Mostly practical effects, characters that feel like individuals (even ones without much screen time to develop backstory), and realistic emotions being shown for what is taking place action-wise take this movie to another level for me. This is the movie to see if you are bored with all the samey action movies that have been coming out lately

George Miller disappears into the Namibian desert with $150 million of studio money and emerges with an epic feminist broadside against patriarchy that also happens to be one of the best action films of the past 2 decades, pointing the way beyond the Parkinsonian shakey cam and weightless CGI spectacle that currently dominates the genre.

Massive, massive disappointment. After the unanimous reviews came out I was so amped that I watched the original trilogy back-to-back-to-back the day before. It's undeniable that "Fury Road" has great visual style to spare. But once again, the critics were blinded by cinematography. Where is the plot? The characters? Where's the humour? The fun? Even the violence was unrewarding. An average night of WWF wrestling has a better story and characters than this. Gritty and humourless.

Fury Road shares only its setting with the 1980's Mad Maxes, which I enjoyed. In every other way, it is exactly the same as every other action summer blockbuster since the turn of the century. Its flimsy plot is off-the-shelf and immaterial, and the illogical and ceaseless stunt-explosion-chase-battles are like a crib mobile: Flashy and noisy, but mass-produced and monotonously repetitive. Being cursed with an intellect more developed than a baby's, this movie bored the shit out of me.

My lord, what an absolute triumpth. A stunningly realised post-apocalyptic world that sits you in a rollercoaster for two glorious hours. If you don't enjoy this film I'm pretty sure you either don't have a pulse or just completely suck as a human being.

Haven't seen an action movie so unrelenting and balanced in pacing since Terminator 2. The narrative is spun visually with very little exposition to slow the movie down, and when there are breaks in the action there is still a sense of urgency that beats like a war drum. Essentially boils down to a two hour post-apocalyptic chase movie, with spectacular stunt-based action sequences and traditional visual effects. Yet, the story that drives the action is moving and filled with strong characters.

You know when there's a wounded pregnant woman narrowly dodging a rock overhang while hanging off the side of a steampunk-style big rig that this is far from your typical action film. A gloriously refreshing set of protagonists (Theron leads a great cast of females young and old) drives (literally; it's almost all insane car chases) forward a simple apocalyptic story beautifully filmed and fantastically decorated. Max's backstory flashes are a little distracting without any context though.

miller steps back into action as if he never left, injecting back something that's been missing from the genre with rare exceptions: pure, unashamed straightup adrenaline. it says a lot that most of the action in the trailer comes from the first half of the film and the opening sequence to the movie-long chase would be an action finale in any other film. lots of perfect creepy dystopian future touches and surprisingly well done humor. LOVED the heavy metal vehicle with the flamethrowing guitar

The characterization was even more refined than its predecessors and the plot was boiled down to one, very long chase. However, this movie clipped along rapidly, taking so many breakneck turns that we weren't given time to think about these things, and I found myself not wanting to. This shift in pace from the slow burning action of its prequels was smart, allowing room for the gorgeously crafted environment to shine. Bonus points for Tom Hardy being super dreamy and the feminist leanings.

I almost skipped seeing this because remakes of 80's classics are generally retarded, but Fury Road is nothing short of amazing. It's a rip-roaring, all guns blazing cavalcade of vehicular destruction and violence that barely lets up during the 2 hour runtime. Tom Hardy's nearly mute and certainly insane Max is perfect, and Theron is 100% believable as a hard as nails badass. I dare you to watch this and not have a blast...it's a highlight of the last 20 years of Hollywood action flicks.

Pickpocket | 3 28th |

Once you get past how cool everything looks you realize it's just mindless, repetitive action that has no semblance of a story. The characters are horrifically one dimensional and incredibly cliched. The scene where Furiosa realizes her home is destroyed and she rips her fake arm off and screams at the sky is a strong candidate for the top 5 worst scenes of all time. So much cringe. It's hard to imagine that anything will be more overrated in 2015, don't believe the hype.

Whoa! I entered the theatre with my face, but it appears that it was blown off over the course of this film. While I understand the need to call this film "Mad Max", it should really be "Furiosa" (or "Mad Furiosa"). It's a mystery how this film got made, as in, how such a unique vision was given such a high budget. The world is better for it, though.

Miller learns from his previous films and strips things down to a simple, straightforward plot while simultaneously blowing the action scenes up to ridiculous scales. Yet the stunt work and CGI are realistic and grounded, providing a nice contrast to both its own craziness and the majority of recent action films. There's an immediacy to it that many films have a hard time capturing. This is a movie where a despot brings a guy with a flamethrower guitar along with him on a chase, and you buy it.

It's not just the jaw-dropping stuntwork that elevates this 2 greatness, but the truly inspired visuals; describing them is like recounting parts of a dream (e.g. "I dreamt I was on the hood of a speeding car spitting octane into the engine as we raced this guy painted white"). The structure is perfect 2 w/ just enough characterization 2 make u care who lives & dies. U care even more thanks 2 the performances of the 2 leads w/ Theron in particular conveying a lifetime of heartbreak in her eyes

A completely bizarre dystopian future that, somehow, feels more real than the majority of sci-fi tropes that most films put out there. The details are wonderful, the colors are a spectacle, and the music is frantically welcomed. Oh yeah, and there is a car chase. The kind of car chase that melts your face off.

Taking the best aspects of road warriors and the movie 'the warriors' this movie provides compelling drama over a simple concept and paints a fleshed out world by paying attention to the details.

It's a feat for a movie series to enter its opulence phase and still retain the sensibilities that made it culturally resonate back in its early days. Fury Road shows what blockbusters can be, enormous, decadent spectacles but still capable of infusing its characters with emotional depth by adhering to a simple concept inherent to good cinema, show not tell.
From the incessant pace of the chases to the lull before the storm, Miller shows, and teaches, just how humanistic a simple story can be.

One of the rare films I'd recommend heading to your local fleapit to see. This demands a big screen and thunderous sound system. Jaw-dropping real action, sparing use of CGI, insanely inventive. This movie pushes itself to the limits, then pushes some more. This will be remembered as one of the best action movies of a decade littered with lame CGI cartoon superheroes. I left the theatre feeling high as a kite, and 2 days later I'm still buzzed about this and considering a repeat viewing.

Both an exercise in and oblique takedown of macho action movie excess, complete with high speed cars, exuberant pyrotechnics, insane stunts and obligatory heavy metal. It's telling that its gentle themes of compassion, hope and atonement are depicted through endless flashes of violence, brutality and mass, rampaging annihilation. It depicts a humanity that is forced to overcome its innate destructive tendencies in order to survive -- quite a heavy subject for such an unapologetic spectacle.

Mad Max: Fury Road does not give a fuck. All it does is be rad. I've seen a bunch of people try to talk about the film having some sort of "message" but all I got from it was that it is metal as shit to play a flamethrower guitar on top of a war truck made of speakers. (Note: I saw the trailer, thought it looked super shitty and looked like the 80% practical effects thing was bullshit. This movie is no bullshit.)

This is probably going to be one of the best movies of the year. With its great directing, visual effects, acting, and cinematography, It's just a great movie. It really reminds me of the 2nd Mad Max movie. This is a "have to see" movie.

A visually stunning oilpunk/waterpunk/pretty-much-everything-punk universe, which strikes a perfect balance between gritty hyperrealism and the grotesque. Except for the guitar. They should have lost the stupid guitar. A brutal road movie with an abundance of shooting, explosions, asskickings, Hardy as a mumbling madman and Theron channelling Ellen Ripley. Nothing mediocre about this.

GOD. DAMN. I haven't felt this exhilarated by a movie in a long time. It delivers on pure action movie spectacle - no shakycam, little CGI, no instances of too much crap flying around the screen. It delivers on acting, writing and character. It delivers as a great subject for academic/critical analysis. PLEASE SEE THIS MOVIE. Also: Flaming Guitars. Really.

I haven't seen many films that do such a wonderful job ratcheting up tension and keeping the clock ticking throughout. The action scenes feel especially well-paced; Miller has only gotten better at that. That its entire theme involves Patriarchy-smashing only makes it better. Keays-Byrne shines as a giant skewering of the papacy, as does Richard Carter as the embodiment of a corrupt justice system. Theron leaves the most indelible impression of all. This film will prove extremely rewatchable.

Man, the manic, unrelenting energy of that first 30 minutes just knocked me down on my ass. It was something to witness indeed; it was bonkers; but a very appealing kind of crazy. It made me giddy, I just enjoyed it at a very subconscious level. Then it stutters a bit as it is hard to keep up the story in a slow car chase; but the quality of production, the raw aesthetic of the created world never ceased to amaze. If they are going for a second trilogy, I'm all for it.

A triumph of ambition, that despite falling short of the frothing, near hysterical critical reaction, is still a helluva great time and unforgettable assault on the senses. Miller COULD have easily tossed off a greatest hits mash-up of his first 3 films in an attempt to jumpstart the franchise. Instead, he delivers MORE --action, chases, crashes, fire, EVERYTHING -- nearly to a fault. But god bless this man for having the guts and gall to pull off something this vibrant and wildly audacious.

Thirty years waiting and it did not disappoint. Hardy takes the mantle like it was his in the first place. Theron is pretty awesome too. Hoult both looks and acts goofy here, which is pretty fitting because that guy's face is weird. I don't understand why Miller thought it'd be a good idea to take a powder from a successful dystopian sci-fi series to pump out a few crappy kids movies and "Lorenzo's Oil." This is where he belongs. It's been a long time, old friend, I'm glad you're back.

Fury Road inadvertently fucks itself over by giving us just about the best first 30 minutes of a movie in history. By the second act, there's very little left to discover about its incredibly detailed world, and the action scenes, whilst mostly exciting, felt increasingly less fresh as the film went on. The feminist subtext (text, really) was fine, but it's more praise-worthy for its inclusion that its execution. This review is at least partially reactionary. It's fantastic. Go see it.

A tank burning rubber on a desert. While the projected, pointless car chases were by far the worst part of the earlier movies, Fury Road has nothing else to offer. A hymn to the modern ADHD "culture". There have been several definitions of feminism, but somehow I don't recall "a bunch of scantily clad models with no other purpose than to look sexy" being one of them.

A return to form for action movies. It doesn't have a fully realized backstory, but neither did the original series, nor do any of them need one. It's firm in its affirmation of its own existence. The world is this way, and if you don't accept that, you're dead on the road. It isn't a masterpiece, but it is refreshing in its own sense of high octane violence. The best movie of 2015 so far.

What I saw wasn't the budget put on screen, it was the ambition. Like THE RAID 2's car chase setpiece stretched into a feature, FURY ROAD masters the balance between spectacle and drama. George Miller just swept up the summer blockbuster season of 2015, and the dude is 70.

Old-fashioned in the best sense with spectacular stunts, vigorous yet clear editing & rich audiovisually immersive setting. Visual storytelling cuts out the usual bullshit exposition & fun little stories are told through action & detail. Major character stuff works decently in balance. Too long though & lacks a certain bite of something like Road Warrior. Nothing revolutionary but the flamboyant presentation & rock-solid direction are a perfect reminder of why you once loved action films.

Here we have an action film that cares about having a sensible plot, characters with arcs, and never-before-seen setpieces that will throw you on your fucking ass. Mad Max Fury Road isn't just a great film, it is a bar for which other films must now be judged against. We as critics, as cinema freaks, and most importantly, as audience members, are the luckiest people in the world when films like this come out. If you don't see this in the theatre, you are missing out.

on rewatch i have even less idea why this film is so popular, because it's stranger and more removed from conventional standards of taste than most b-movies. forget the lovingly detailed and lived-in universe, wicked sense of humour, vivid, hallucinatory visuals and visceral, kinetic, amazingly choreographed set pieces. it's the tone that makes it; that messed up, grotesque, twitching derangement, and the way it's fully internalised to the point of resembling some mad alien mythology.

Rust and blood. Shit and sand.

And they say the future looks bleak.

Great and in a way classical camera work for an action film, and most of the time great action which for me becomes a little redundant after a while. And the whole film would have worked totally fine without Max, who is supposed to be cool I guess, but only feels dumber than Mel Gibsons Mad Max. Still a fun ride though. Oh but Mad Max without his Interceptor 99 percent of the time??? Come on.

Well made in every sense, Mad Max does action right. Economical dialogue. Actual stunts. And a story that capitalizes on certain mythic tropes without pointing at itself repeatedly as if to say, "Hey, look what we're doing here!" This film simply goes about its business with competence, all the while bringing a measure of humanity to the apocalyptic wasteland that serves as its setting.

Revolution is needed, and this delivers it at the highest of RPMs. It throws you into its patriarchal, corrupt, resource-starved world right from the start and doesn't slow down to let you catch your breath. Forget exposition and backstory; Miller spends every precious frame just showing you the story - in thrilling high-octane fashion. Watch as Imperator Furiosa leads a relentless takedown of a government ruled by greed, militarism, and religion, a haunting reflection of the US' current state.

In a year that doesn't have Kingsman, this probably wins action movie of the year. Even so, by the end it'll be a tough choice for me. Amazing atmosphere/visuals, exciting action in one long chase scene that never gets boring, completely ridiculous vehicle design (in the best way possible!), a guy in the front of a big truck with the sole purpose being playing the guitar, a pounding soundtrack with a great theme, feminism, Tom Hardy, and a well-told narrative. Does film making right.

This movie is fucking crazy. You WILL NOT, I repeat, WILL NOT, know exactly what's going on. You'll know only enough to move forward.

I went to the cinema with no expectations and I came out quite displeased with this pile of desert rubbish on wheels. 'Mad' Max was bigger pussy than any of wives/(grand)mothers. I thought he would be like rabid dog, making mayhem all the time. Instead he looked like cracked mental patient, who was off his meds and got asswhiped by a bunch of (pregnant) girls. Also there are some dudes driving to and fro in desert all the time, if you like that kind of stuff. Boring as fuck.

Take the best thing about the original Mad Max series, The truck chase....turn that into a full length movie..add amazing actors who have already proven themselves to be rough so that the believability is there(Charlize Theron - Monster)(Tom Hardy - Warrior, Bronson). 1 part rob zombie/steampunk visuals, 1 great scripting of events, spent very little time on backstory, Fun characters, unrelenting brutality. I could not be happier about a reboot if I tried. They. Fucking. Nailed. It.

In P.A. Earth, there are endless reserves of refined oil, but people have forgotten how to shoot out tyres! Which only goes to illustrate how mad this all is. That said, as a visual, and visceral spectacle this is unsurpassed. It has its flaws; it sags heavily in the middle when the action relents, and it is all too easy to see how shallow everything is. The action sequences looked rushed at the end, compared to the utter brilliance of the earlier sand storm, but ultimately, one hell of a ride!

Badass. One of the best action films I've seen in a long time. It's Furiosa's story, as told by Max; it's not his journey, he just facilitates it. The design of the characters & vehicles were fantastic. I appreciate the feminist angle. I don't think Hardy did a lot with the (admittedly diminished) role. Theron is awesome. The action scenes are well choreographed & different. Great integration of the practical stuff with the CGI. Spectacular, smart, a real cinematic achievement & I loved it

Max (Tom Hardy) finds himself on the side of Furiosa (Charlize Theron), who is spiriting the brides of a vicious warlord (Hugh Keays-Byrne) to safe haven, with hundreds in pursuit. Simply plotted (the climax hinges on a beautifully simple stratagem), magnificently thrilling, and wonderfully inventive, it's one of the best blockbusters in years. A technical triumph on every level, but it packs an emotional punch, with its potent feminist subtexts and Nicholas Hoult's tragic performance.

The thing I admired most about this was the ugliness of just about everything but the Victoria's Secret models in it. Compared to its contemporaries, Fury Road offers a well thought out creativity and design which carries weight and consequence to every action that never saturates as it goes from action scene 1 to 2 to 3. It hadn't hit me until this that other action movies recently strive to be more regal and pristine, which consequently makes their action prissy and plodding.

Fury Road feels more like a carnival ride than a film. Watching it in 3D only added to the effect. It's nice to see the emphasis put on the female characters, but it really doesn't help when they have no backstory or personality. Still the main character seems to be Furiosa, who overshadows even Max himself. Don't let the new, fancy special effects fool you, story-wise the film is as hollow as the previous movies.

It's a really well executed action flick. I was expecting some retro elements but the visuals are very 2015, though with mercifully limited use of disorienting CGI track & pan shots during the action. The world Miller creates is fascinating and the script does an outstanding job of selectively explaining things. Best of all, we get to experience it with excellent pacing. I can't remember the last time a two hour runtime flew by so fast.

Fury Road sets new standards for action films and my long awaited expectations where unbelievably surpassed. It's both satisfying and rewarding to see the visionary talents of George Miller reach a new pinnacle. And the enormity and scale of Fury Road is truly astonishing. Tom Hardy is perfect and Charlize Theron really surprised me. The set pieces, vehicles & score are all insanely spectacular and the entire experience blew me away. Fury Road ranks high among the finest action films ever made.

The most notable thing here is that it succeeds at being consistently engaging despite the overinflated, unrelenting [seriously, anything remotely resembling "quiet," or "contemplative moments" do not exist in this universe], dumb action spectacle. As far as this type of thing goes though, I found "The Lego Movie" to be more unique and endearing. Score is the usual hollywood turd-fest. Also, it's pretty silly to call this a feminist film, but I guess it's a start.

The level of detail combined with the level prolonged intense non-cgi action is a new benchmark. The design quality from the vehicles to pendants is a feast.

Film was storyboarded first, a rareity, but should be the blueprint for all action flicks, the kinetic aspect was perfect.

Take the most intense scene from your typical action movie these days. If you double it up, you have the quieter moments of action for about 100 of the 120 minutes of this movie.
Fucking blew me away. The visuals were gorgeous (how do you even make a bunch of sand look good?), and the soundtrack beautifully accompanied what was on the screen. The plot was the only thing you can knock, but you'll be more concerned about catching your breath. Shout out to the guitar man. Rock on.

As a highly stylised action spectacular, this film blows most of its competition out of the water. I think the car fights may be on a par with Terminator 2 for gripping thrill-rides. Characters are good enough but the super-simple story disappoints. The original Mad Max was just as nihilistic but made a greater emotional connection. I'll probably remember this as like a Zak Snyder film, incredible cinematography and visuals and detail, insane action sequences, but not emotionally involving.

The exaggerated acting, rollicking thrash metal, and completely weird cinematography turns this into a bizarre otherworldly musical. They widely sidestep doing the paint by the numbers origin of who or where Max comes from. Who Max is is immaterial because he's an anonymous wasteland warrior battling his way through hell. Plus the mythos of Max is 30+ years in the making. I wish the focus was less on Furiosa and more on Max but otherwise this was a good reincarnation of a much needed franchise.

Stuck somewhere in-between action film and music-video this is an impressive work of art. The visual side of it is amazing. No doubt. The story is almost art-film like, in the sense that it conveys no actual goal or morale. Just plain road. There is a lot in the description of the milieu, but you can actually read it as an avantgarde film. A vanguard for future action film.

Despite, more or less, loathing the first three movies, I really thought that Miller finally got it. Yes, you have other opportunities today compared to the 70's and 80's, and maybe that makes this more beautiful to watch, but heck this felt much more inspired than any of the other. Incredible action, beautiful shots and holy sh*t the score was awesome. This is a wild ride, and I would actually recommend this to those who thought that this wasn't for them.

What happens when action movies are made by people who not only care about the art of film, but are willing to push it and stretch it until it tells the story right. It has the intensity that every action movie desires, but so few get, because they're not willing to change in the ways this one has.

I wonder how many people saw the true nature of this film. An equally brazen and shameless subversion of an, once, ultramasculine franchise and turning it into a dark and grotesque feminist fairy tale. I despise the message but bow down to the craftsmanship. It's all super crazy and vibrant on the surface but very, very cold and measured right beneath it.

Ok, yeah, I don't think I blinked or breathed for two hours. Absolutely gorgeous, well-acted, well-choreographed, with socially-conscious themes on women and violence that the action movie genre only sees once or twice in a generation. Makes everything else look like child's play.

One crazy film. In a good way though, in fact the style reminded me of the earlier Mad Max films and there are plenty of references which I thought were quite nice. Visually it looks great, the action and setting are top-notch. There is not much plot or depth but who needs those in a film like this? My only real complaint is the ending which felt rushed, like nearly 2 hours had passed and they had to have an ending. Furthermore the final part could have been more satisfying. Great entertainment.

Wow, how can a movie with so little dialogue be that entertaining?!

Plus points for over-the-top ridiculous Nazi-skinhead-Germanic-dystopian syncretism. So shiny! So chrome! Yeehaa!

This aims and fires at your eyes for 2 hrs. non-stop, but never touches your heart or your brain. Even an action movie must allow some space for you to breathe and to think by building an interesting story and MMFR fails miserably, just like its 1979 predecessor.

Really solid movie. Exactly what the title says: the movie breaths out craziness. This was reflected in the characters, the world, and the camerawork. I think that this was the most important accomplishment in this film. Furthermore, the role of mad max was very well done by the actor, and the character was very well thought out. Great special effects, great soundtrack! The only thing what was a bummer, was the ending. Felt really imcomplete and rushed. Recommended!

I was not sure what to expect going into this movie. The Mel Gibson Mad Max movies were good, but it always felt like the world wasn't crazy enough to support the ideas behind the scripts. Something was missing, and that something made me like but feel cold towards Mad Max. This movie filled in every missing piece that the previous movies were lacking in my opinion. The world was insane, the world was truly the world after an apocalypse, and the world was truly the world built for Mad Max.

I don't think there was one second of this film where I wasn't at the edge of my seat.

From its very first scenes, "Fury Road" vibrates with the energy of a veteran filmmaker working at the top of his game, pushing us forward without the cheap special effects or paper-thin characters that have so often defined the modern blockbuster. Miller hasn't just returned with a new installment in a money-making franchise. The man who re-wrote the rules of the post-apocalyptic action genre has returned to show a generation of filmmakers how they've been stumbling in their attempts to

George Miller returns to his storied franchise after 30 years, and possibly creates not only the best movie in the series but and an all-time great sci-fi/action film. The amazingly rich world bares revisiting, as what is essentially an A-B-A car chase plot races beautifully by. Using fantastic cinematography audiences see characters fleshed out visually in the action. Alongside Mad Max on another adventure that simply becomes a chapter in the history book of the post apocalyptic world.

A distillation of the Mad Max iconography into a two-hour truck chase scene that's imaginative in little details, but still numbing, grotesque, and somewhat unbeautiful, despite all the changing color schemes. Just the good humor and slapstick talent of Mel Gibson would have brought this underwritten, exhausted story up a notch.

As close to a perfect action film that you can get in 2015. It's even more amazing considering Miller is in his 70's and the previous episode came in the 80's. This feels like a film by a young director filled with energy and bat shit ideas - electric guitar/flamethrower anyone?. Hardy is fine, but the film belongs to Theron who kicks ass as Furiosa. I can't even imagine the amount of work that went to building the vehicles and details, but it paid off and you really believe in the world.

I didn't think it possible to create a 2 hour car chase that I'd enjoy, but I stand corrected. This is a sequel that lives up to it's 30 year cult-status predecessor by retaining all of the original's wonderful parts and just expanding on it. My favorite thing about this film is the fact that you can tell there is more going on under the surface, but they don't bother explaining that to you because WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THAT! which just makes me long for more.

Grand action in locomotion. The stunts are incredible and the speed is break-neck. There are brief pauses just so you can catch your breath. Max never quite catches up to himself though, as his trademark vehicle is barely involved. More on-foot action would have balanced the intensity.

The best directed action movie I've ever seen. Action of this quantity could easily (and typically does) devolve into a disorienting and boring barrage of quick cuts and loud noises. But here the shooting/editing worked in perfect harmony with the insanity of the scenes, always keeping me glued in. The visuals are stunning (can't get that guitar guy out of my head), and the characters are refreshingly real. This is the first time since I was a child that an action movie has EXCITED me.

The Fury Road is definitely the path less traveled, stunning cinematography, sparse exposition and unrelenting action sets the movie in a league of its own. on the other hand, hardy is barely there for the ride (pun intended), this is the story of righteous furiosa, through and through. in a film that's light on the story and heavy on the characters, the titular character being the second fiddle is a bit off.

What a movie! What a nightmarish and utterly thrilling ride! Unlike with most summer blockbusters/spectacle films, this film excels on both a visual and emotional level. The filmmakers have crafted an action movie with as much brains as balls. The set pieces, especially the finale, are all knockouts, and the feminist philosophy at its core is thoughtful and well-integrated into the narrative. One of the best action movies in years.

Just one of the most impressive, economical, auteurist action movies ever made. Everything you see and hear at every point is pure Miller. The aggressively feminist plot is just the icing on the most badass cake since Matrix 1. Also seen the Black and Chrome version which would probably get 88/89 or so, it's interesting and some shots look amazing but definitely doesn't match up to the original.

At times, it's a simply baffling experience, but after 2 hours of cruising down that road, you can't help but get swept up in its adrenaline. A kinetic, intensely visual, utterly exhausting film. Movies are video games now.

A bold and stylistically confident look at another day in the life of Mad Max in a visceral vision of a post-apocalyptic world.

The best MM film and one of the finest, most intense action films in recent memory. Technically impeccable, with a fascinating soundtrack and photography, FR is also the best-written film of the series. Theron is very good in the role of Furiosa, but the most important asset is the unrelenting, frenzied, exhilarating and in some cases even moving action, be it big-scale chases or impressive fist fights. Brilliantly orchestrated by Miller and never running low on ideas, it's a triumph all-around.

Well the movie may be a bit moronic in spoken word but I have this feeling that producers really let their people to be creative, in Jodorowski sense of view, which means that you got original and fun ideas seeded all over the movie. This movie is all about visuals and of course you can appreciate "what a lovely day" Max is having. Also, story is complete shit - I wish they hired equally talented people for the script as they did for other things.

The best of the Mad Max series. Charlize Theron is the real star of this film and carries it with subtlety and restraint while also carrying immense emotional weight.

Action, action and action is how I would describe Mad Max Fury Road. They've done it very well, and Hoult and Theron act amazingly, but if you take the action away it leaves absolutely nothing. There's hardly any story to mention and 'Max' aka Hardy is the worst actor of the bunch. 47/100.

I liked Charlize Theron. The costumes, characters & sets were beyond ridiculous. Many insane premises. If you can put the garbage aside, there are a few moments of brilliance. Some terrific action, but the editing nearly undermines it all. Liberties with the film speed make it feel like an amateur production. Much of this is horribly overdone. Frenetic, stupid, tedious, farcical nonsense, but there is also some good excitement & some fun to be had. Maybe this should have been called Mad Maxine?

As one would expect from a new Mad Max film, Mad Max: Fury Road is a violent, explosive, action thriller that never lets up.

A action movie for the ages! From my own observations this felt like a perfect blend of new and old styles of film making. Recognized several things from the old silent cinema from the cranking up of the speed for a better flow, and some scenes came across as homage to German Expressionism, especially when using the slightly dark blue tinting. When you mix that with spectacular CGI crashes, a ton of awesome looking punks and a total ass kicking rock'n'roll chase.... THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT!!!

George Carlin once said some U.S. conservatives view women as nothing more than a "broodmare for the State." This movie took that concept, but showed how women rebel from that role. The story isn't the perfect feminist action flick some bloggers are making it out to be: the characters are too flawed and the story is too thin to make truly compelling drama. But like good sci-fi it draws on current anxieties about the future (regarding our environment & self-determination) to tell a great story.

Mel Gibson may no longer be Mad Max, the mantel now having fallen to big, glowering Tom Hardy. But even though the defining star of the series has long since driven out of the frame, Fury Road may well be the most Mad Maxian of all the movies. All of the series' elements are supersized here. Crazy vehicles? Crazier. Creepy, theatrically dressed villains? Creepier, more theatrically dressed. Bloody action? Bloodier. (pluggedin.com)

I'm usually sceptical to late sequels or reboots trying to milk an existing franchise, but this one had everything going for it. Miller is still in the driver's seat, and the brakes are out. This is 2 hours of high octane action, great characters and world building, superb visuals and amazing stunt driving. Everything it wouldn't have been if Miller had not managed to sit on the franchise rights and it had been another CGI-heavy Hollywood action reboot.

Mad Max: Fury Road is a visually stunning, post apocalyptic action flick that has more going on under the surface than films of that genre.There are some real cool action sequences and set pieces. The battle through the sandstorm looked awesome. I also liked the night effects they used, gave the film a eerie flavor at times.Both Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron were good in the respective roles but Theron's Furiosa stole the film. Worth checking out.

You know when you're watching a porno and the camera is just focused on the dick going in and not so much anything else? That's how Fury Road's action scenes feel with their quick cuts, CG, close-ups, and constant score. Slow things down, make us feel how awesome these scenes are. Still pretty enjoyable nevertheless. An awesome world is built here, just wish there was more to do with it.

Essentially just one long action-packed chase scene. If you're expecting a deep story and fleshed-out characters you should just walk away. As a pure action flick it's excellent. Many elements that made the original trilogy so great i.e the dystopian world-building, gritty aesthetic and crazy characters are all here. One of the very rare cases of modern Hollywood reboots/remakes not completely missing the point of the old classics. Highly recommended for fans of the franchise and action movies.

Not a single minute goes by without something awesome happening. Be it the chase sequences, the strong characters, the freaking amazing world building and cinematography or just some straight up metal concepts like a dude playing guitar on a driving vehicle. In the middle of a chase. And his guitar SPITS FIRE.

As perfect an action film as one could ask for, Mad Max: Fury Road is a master class in how to make every single element in a movie shine brilliantly. Whether it's the powerful performances, the breath-taking prosthetics, or the sense of manic, balletic energy about the whole thing, Mad Max: Fury Road is a joy of a film from start to finish. A masterpiece of action cinema.

Bombast-laden Road Warrior (or at least an extra layer). It's fresh, it's got great action sequences, and Charlize Theron kills it. Terrible music hampers its effect a great deal. Still crushes anything American action is going for these days.

Can see Australia going in this direction. In the end, it all becomes rather too bombastic. Divided into four sections, each precisely 30 minutes long, which I guess shows some kind of algorithmic approach to narrative programming. Much of the acting and dialogue is weak. Obviously much effort was expended on the stunts, yet it was not always clear who was who, and which car was which. Does its "feminist" critique of war in the Anthropocene save it from its own nihilism? Far from convinced.

I was kind of bothered by the sudden jumps of increased frame rate during action sequences (which also bothered me in the first mad max). It makes things look silly and I just couldn't get past that. I also feel the last action sequence was rather redundant, having already been blown away by the previous attacks on the war rig.

* Mad Max: Extremely hot and badass women fighting.
I wish this were a stand alone film since it has literally 0 thing to do with Max. Any character name would have been good enough. By itself it's a really great film, a gem lost for decades, so old school action that you actually know what it going on in the screen.
Being fully dubbed takes a bit away from the movie for me but thankfully veeery little dialogu so doesn't bother one too much. AMAZİNG editing and camera work. Good film.

I'd seen the previews. I'd read the hype.

I'm pretty sure that seeing in the theatre would have blown my mind. For a flick that was primed to disappoint, it destroyed my expectations.

George Miller not only returns the Mad Max series to its glory days, but also adds a few more cinematic tricks. Look, this is a movie where people go on manhunts and strap a blind heavy metal guitarist on the grill of a ginormous truck just to get the gang's juices flowing, so please don't expect an amazing social commentary or something. But if you expect dust, blood, violence, full-blown action with ridiculously fantastic cars, with some metal music on top, you will get your money's worth.

This one is definitely for the pure action with no dialogue (almost) junkies out there. The movie was half over before I had any kind of an idea where it was going, except down Fury Road. Then it became sort of interesting but pretty much more of the same. Needless to say, not a think piece but at least it has more meat on its bones than [i]Furious 7[/i] and the like. I was hoping there'd be more to the band wagon, like some kick-ass anthem rock or something but it wasn't to be

This is a major improvement on the first three films, primarily because the production design and stunts are far better than before. But the writing is still weak, the characters are as bland as ever, and it's still sometimes difficult to tell who's doing what, who's where and what exactly is going on in the chaotic scenes.

An astonishingly good action movie, creating a rich post-apocalyptic world in stunning detail and with some very economic visual storytelling. The plot's feminist and general anti-establishment themes are well weaved into the action, and while Max is as much a cipher as ever, Tom Hardy holds his own in his reinterpretation of the role. George Miller has not missed a beat.

I will give an extra 10 points on top of my typical comic book movie score because this was in fact a highly entertaining, fast paced, action packed thrill ride. Everything about the production was fantastic. The apocalyptic tone and steampunk imagery was pretty gnarly. Having said all that, I am a bit disappointed. I thought I was in for some kind of masterpiece, not a flick that was simply above average.

Max here is built on the famous "style over substance" formula. There is so much style if overflows the measly Namibian desert, character build-up, plot attempts and thought development in one elemental spurt. When the movie was coming to an end, I was secretly hoping they would travel past their destination to yet another side of the desert and I felt Max was devastated too. There was this famous missing dialog: "But what's the point in this roving, Max?" "Max. My name is Max."

The movie had generated a lot of positive buzz when it came out which influenced me to watch it. I did, and that too 3D + IMAX. It was a audio-visual feast to say the least. The movie has an apocalyptic setting with some real weird stuff (cars with strung up guitarists, guys spraying themselves with chrome!) - stuff that screams "braindead" yet you enjoy it nonetheless. I hadn't watched the first three instalments; so I had no background or expectations either. I highly recommend it!

Absolutely beautiful cinematography, and car-based action scenes that put the Fast & Furious genre to shame. George Miller gives lessons in world-building and how to use shades of blue and orange without turning the entire film ugly. The greatness of those aspects may distract a bit from the somewhat bare plot, but in all likelihood this score will increase on future rewatch.

Not being a fan of Mad Max films I was pleasantly surprised with Fury Road - for the first half at least. We're presented with a deceptively layered story that gets straight into things, great production design and some of the best-choreographed action scenes seen for yonks. The problem is that all imagination is exhausted in the first hour, leaving a second that's mostly a confusing/repetitive, never-ending, all-guns-blazing car chase leading to the film's cheesy and predictable conclusion.

A brilliantly made action flick, the movie has a fairly simple plot but that means we have clear motivations for the characters that aren't messed around for the sake of a twist or trying to appear more complex than it is. Lots of good visual storytelling and world-building in here too. Hardy is good as Max but Theron steals the movie as Furiosa. The action sequences are incredible and imaginative. Should be a wake-up call to all other modern action movies, this is how you do it!

Australian cinema's big bread winner for the year. Almost a sure thing reviving the Mad Max franchise, but it was a franchise that would benefit heavily from a cash injection. The result is what folks want, an old fashion action movie, back to basics, a very Australian decision by Miller who somehow has followed Happy Feet 2 up with this.

It feels like a Cirque du Soleil action movie for metalheads. The action and effects are all great. Theron, Hardy, Hoult and the rest of the cast are great. For me though while there is some absolutely breathtaking cinematography it also uses closeups a little too much. I would have liked some more wider/grander shots to convey the convoy's size and its relationship to the surrounding geography. Also a little bit more plot exposition and character development would have been nice.

What a lovely day for a new Mad Max movie. I must say, just watching the third Mad Max film, this movie shows the leaps and bounds that film-making has done in the last 30 years. The red sand looks so crisp and the action scenes are so visceral and explosive. I don't think that Tom Hardy really embodied the role of Mad Max well though compared to Mel Gibson. Plus, I felt like the focus was more on Charlize and her gorgeous L'Oreal of the Wasteland girls instead of the titular character... [Full Review]

Not that bad, I feared that I would hate it especially with all the hype. Tom Hardy just wasn't Max to me even though I find him to be a good actor. The movie was decent but without Mel as Max and the gravitas that he brings to the role he knows so well along with the minuscule plot leaves the whole thing feeling empty.

So this might be the first time i appreciate Charlize Theron's acting. Miller shows them how it's done with half-an-hour action shots that are perfect and seamless. Some pretty powerful and human scenes that elegantly intertwine with the action shots, balancing the mix to perfection. Still, why does Tom Hardy just growl?

Mad Max: Fury Road is everything a good action movie should be. It's thought provoking; at every moment during the film I kept wondering to myself how humanity had made it so far. The thundering soundtrack mixed with the beautiful colors and scenery of the movie hit all of the senses - I can almost taste and smell the gasoline and oil while watching this movie. I really like how economical in this movie - there is no filler. The best part is the creepiness throughout - I never feel right.

Fury Road is a psychotic, visually stunning, gritty action movie and one of the best you'll see for a time to come. George Miller had huge ambitions when he first released his low budget trilogy back in the 70s but he shows the magic he can make with a bigger budget. Definitely looking forward to the second. Extremely strong second half.

Awesome visuals, an interesting, crazy and well-elaborated world, great soundtrack and much, much noise. All in all pretty enjoyable and exciting from beginning to end. All the action and explosions were way over the top, though. But I guess I should've seen Mad Max 1-3 to understand all this and enjoy it a little more. And of course the storyline is too flat for my taste since it's pretty much non-existent.

What a spectaculary hideous world Miller has created. It's a visually impressive, action-packed extravaganza and I'm fine with the lacking plot and poor dialogues, but those bloody villains! I need my villains to be sinister, to genuinely fear them. Those guys were just silly. I mean, hysterically bad. I found too many things laughable, the flaming guitar hero included. Theron is generally badass, Hardy looks lost as if he'd landed on an alien planet and is now trying to cope with its absurdity.

%100 katıksız aksiyon ama bir saniye bile boş yok, %100 yüksek tempo onda da bir saniye bile boş yok genelde bu zamanda 80'li yılların filmlerin tadını yakalayamadıklarını düşünürken belki de ilk defa daha mı iyi acaba diye düşünüyorum. Kısacası olağanüstü, başyapıt diyebileceğimiz film izleyin, izlettirin...

A Mad Max film that I actually enjoyed. Be it the more colourful post-apocalyptic world, the well-paced yet intense action sequences, or Hardy in the titular role, this film is undeniably enjoyable.

Characters and motivations are kinda shallow, and the writing is sub-par, but the ridiculous and spectacular action more or less makes up for it. I was very impressed by how true to the original Mad Max movies the visuals were, and how they weren't afraid to make the villains way over the top.

An octane-fueled action thrill ride that never lets up. Rarely do we see a cinematic work that takes such pains to perfect every frame it presents to it's audience. The relentless desert environments combined with the sheer intensity and brutality of the practical effects used to deliver the action provides a landmark in the history of action movies. This is the best action gets, and it makes the Mad Max series one of the best in movie history.

One of the greatest films I've had the pleasure of witnessing, this one is comfortably better than any of the older Mad Max films. With breathtaking visuals, a tightly gripping plot and special effects that take your breath away, Mad Max is the new ideal for action movies.

I really don't see what's good in this movie, besides the fact that it actually makes fun of "serious" action movies with its '80s tone and ridiculous characters. The figure of Max is rendered completely useless, while the whole story is just lame. The best thing are the thugs, lots of fun

Great sub-text and main theme which is about pressured women and slaved men together act on patriarchist fascist leader. ANd they dont need to be in love for doing good together. Good cast, excellent cinematography. Screenplay and visuals are also good some scenes with full with logical mistakes but movie is more abut hope, miracle and good so it aint look that bad. I just wanna say Rossie is wrong cast for that insparational role imo. Otherwise this is a masterpiece for its own genre.

Loud, silly, and exuberant; weak dialogue and an inconsistent score are easily overshadowed by thrilling action, solid cinematography, and the refreshing and clever integration of powerful female characters.

A cinematic achievement of the highest order (thus deserving of its many accolades), Fury Road is undermined by the near-total lack of non-white characters in its fictional Wasteland. This is not mere PC posturing, as Miller's vision of the post-collapse future is unrelentingly white (and the only significant exception, Zoë Kravitz, is perhaps only 1/4 African). This implausible fact is never explained, even in a racist way, which makes the omission of 90% of humanity all the more unfathomable.

I thought the action in The Road Warrior was more easily digestible. I didn't care for the action to much here but I liked the atmosphere and there were parts that really caught it and got it right. . We actually started off with the protagonist in the road warrior whereas in fury road we don't and I don't feel for the protagonists. At one point she says "remember me". Well gee movie. That quote doesn't carry much weight when you never showed us what's to be remembered! o.k popcorn flick tho.

Mad Max: Fury Road delivers bombastic but grounded action at a rate that makes other films in the genre seem paltry in comparison.

Action is executed thrillingly here... action not only in the "vroom boom" sense, but in the sense of showing & not telling. Consequently, the blessedly few scenes that do lean on extended dialogue fit awkwardly. Tom Hardy's depiction of a metalpunk Buster Keaton flailing in the desert high seas is well-matched by Theron & Hoult's confident performances.

a masterpiece. The cinematography is excellent and the film is beautiful. However, Miller hasn't just made that cake and sat in it, they go places with it - the action sequences are mesmerising, the acting is superb and the film takes the action genre into a new direction. The soundtrack is also brilliant and goes brilliantly with the film. Mad Max: Fury Road has earnt its place in the movies hall of fame - in terms of quality, it is one of the best films of all time - What a Lovely journey.

Michael Bay's "Wacky Races" brings great visual storytelling without any excess plot or character development to get in the way, yet there's still a little heart under its spiky, explosive chassis.

It's bonkers; That sums up everything that's awesome and everything that sucks. The world-building is absurd and follows no logic; things like that guitar player. It's what's simultaneously so frustrating and so satisfying about this movie. The action craftsmanship on display is nothing to turn one's nose up at. It just doesn't sustain an entire film as much on repeat viewings.

Hardy and Theron make a dynamite team, but Theron is the film's bruised heart and soul. So get prepped for a new action classic. You won't know what hit you.

George Miller transformierte das post-apokalyptische Entertainment in eine singuläre Zukunfts-Vision von zunehmender Verzweifelung. Drei Dekaden nach dem letzten Film kehrt Miller nun endlich in die desolate Landschaft von Mad Max zurück... mehr auf cinegeek.de

Maybe I don't understand it, or simply I cannot appreciate its beauty. Without a firm story, its spectacular special effects are the sole enjoyment in this road movie, that seems superficial and pointless.

Sure, it's a two-hour car chase. But I've never been more satisfied by a pure action movie in my life. Don't hit me over the head with exposition or romance. Hit me over the head with a guitar ejaculating fireballs.

Holy hell! Shiny and chrome! This film took me to the gates of Valhalla! You want post apocalyptic combustion engine macabre? You want a strong ass female lead to go with your strong silent male counterpart? You want some straight up immersive effects and dialogue? This movie is killer and holds the pedal down. Spray paint my teeth! Witness Me!!!

About as perfect as an action movie could possibly be. The world is over the top and ridiculous yet feels incredibly real, the lore is baked into every scene and Miller doesnt spoon feed the audience with exposition

Non-stop action. I really enjoyed the color scheme of the environment and attention to detail in costumes and makeup that really helped enrich the cinematography. Plot and back story was weaker but it didn't take away from the experience for me.

My pick for best film of the 2010's, Mad Max: Fury Road is an action flick that is truly transcendent, a celebration of all that is and all that could be if Hollywood didn't completely suck. Although it does everything right, Fury Road's highest highs are it's astonishing visuals, nonstop ultra-high octane action, and the finest production design you have ever or will ever see for a feminist neo-western post-apocalyptic car chase movie or just about any other movie for that matter. WITNESS IT!!!

OK, I hated this the first time I saw it, because I was looking for a story. If I hate something that I really expected to love, I have to go back. I'm glad I did. I love a visual feast, and this is a visual feast on steroids.

that world development is so good, ur drawn into a world like any other. u grow attachments to some bad ass characters that don't talk much, but get shit done ! the movie had an older feel with it's amazing make up and lack of cgi, also a familiar story in it's themes and take but still fresh and interesting. with nonstop action, dope vehicles, respectfully hawt (& educated) baby mamas, nicholas hoult as a reformed war boy, a woman's capital H hope, 10/10 world building, this is a good movie B)

Another reason for why real stunts and good direction can make an action movie a pleasure to watch. If you like action movies, this is one to watch.
