Wacky Madnees on Wheels

Rating: 6/10 (2 June 2015)

Both good and bad.
That's how I define this Remake.
The film is visually a joy, it can not be denied. His photography, staging, installation, chase sequences are shot with force and showmanship by George Miller, no doubt its commitment to offer adrenalin pace and tone really delusional, crazy and wild.
But in counterpoint I have to say that history is guilty of being extremely simple, he says pointless.
The film itself is silent. A succession of stunts, explosions amid a deafening noise, but here it's all over, there is no real storytelling, a sense of adventure, emotion is as if they had been too afraid to be sliced ​​head with an original story, some witty dialog and situations that really impact, no, the whole film is a continuous evolution of sterile action, the end usual with the dead and the living and bad heroes end. Not that I seek a philosophical film not a melodrama or anything like that, but at least a story to tell me something, I could get involved with the characters or with which they could identify, but has not been well, everything is pure artifice, circus show for the masses. A film seeking our approval with blows of effect, as if to hypnotize us with their action tirelessly to not see the disturbingly empty content that really treasures.
The performances ? Charlize Theron is notable for its makeover but his performance is all horrible, poor lighting, with little charisma and strength. Tom Hardy is a flat actor head to toe, is cold and not transmitting anything, and certainly not reach wing Gibson and soles of shoes.
But I can not stop this new Mad Max. Because the truth is that his delusional and crazy visual style of futuristic western, his furious and wild rhythm, well shot action gets my approval, a very entertaining and estimable B series, but nowhere near the I consider, as they are already doing hundreds , a work of art.
No way.
But I like it, mind you.
