Masterpiece of the genre created by the original Mad Max series

Rating: 10/10 (16 May 2015)

Mad Max: Fury Road makes every other action movie made in the 20th Century look amateurish in comparison. There was a jaw dropping moment at least every three minutes. The pace was utterly relentless and the level of invention topped anything since Avatar. It's a masterpiece of the genre that Kennedy himself created 35 years ago with The Road Warrior, the post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller.This is quite an accomplishment for a film with a powerful feminist driving force. Indeed, Miller may have created an entirely new genre: the post- apocalyptic sci-fi feminist thriller, although the term "thriller" doesn't really do this film justice. Maybe enthraller? Amazer?
