All style and no substance.

Rating: 3/10 (26 September 2015)

Lots of action and cool vehicles and crazy post-apocalyptic freaks but flat, uninteresting characters, no good dialogue and a boring, simplistic story.
The fat-lipped inexpressive Tom Hardy has absolutely ZERO charisma compared to Gibson's Mad Max. Calling him Mad Max was basically pointless, as he was more of a supporting character to Furiosa and the film was not really about him. The Mad Max character could have been anyone. None of the other characters were very well developed except maybe Nux and Furiosa.
My theory is that Miller actually looks at this as a reboot with a FEMALE Mad Max, Imperator (Max) Furiosa (Mad). Imperator Furiosa in this film is far more like the familiar Mad Max character we know than Hardy's character. Miller pulled a real sneaky one here.
If you are an ADHD suffering video game junkie then I guess this is an amazing movie, but if you like stupid, useless boring old- fashioned stuff in movies like stories, fleshed out characters you can identify with and memorable dialogue you will probably be very disappointed.
Watching this was like playing a video game for two hours, or rather watching someone else play the game.
