Wow! I just got back from the theatre and I have to say that Mad Max: Fury Road is one the most insane, blood gutting, intense, visual pieces of cinema work I've seen in years.
George Miller returns to the Mad Max universe after many decades, and presents us with a modern, fast-paced style of what is likely going to be a new series of Mad Max films. The story takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where resources are scarce. When Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron) lead a group of rebels on a daring escape through the Wasteland, she forges an alliance with Max (Tom Hardy)and from there it is a high speed car chase from there.
One of the things that I appreciate from this movie is how most of the stunts are all practical with a small usage of CGI. That paid off well as the action, and stunt work is eye popping, but it is all executed effectively without it making it look like a sloppy mess.
In terms of plot, there is not much of it. You might have trouble understanding on what the story is... and I had difficulty with it too. But this movie isn't designed for hard plot and if you are expecting that then be prepared to be let down.
The action and soundtrack were on point. In terms of acting, it was decent at best. Although the title of the film is "Mad Max" it felt like more of Charlize Theron film as Tom Hardy barely got enough screen time as Max. Moving on, Tom Hardy's performance was average but this can be due to a lack of proper screen time. As well, the constant flashbacks were distracting as it was never really explained why or what happened on that day.
Overall, this is a film you don't want to miss. Don't let negative reviews on here prevent you from seeing it. At the end of the day, you are the judge of the film. After all, film is subjective in taste.
