A Mad Max's sequel without Mel Gibson feels

Rating: 7/10 (13 June 2015)

...like an Alien's sequel without Sigourney Weaver, or like a Rocky's sequel without Sylvester Stallone... It feels like it lacked something, something big. I missed him a lot. The guy is a huge Star and he also directed Braveheart, Apocalypto and starred in the best one of the Mad Max series: Mad Max 2 (1981). On the other hand, Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) could easily be the second best of the series. George Miller knows his stuff and delivers great action sequences, very cool ones, indeed. The action and Charlize Theron performance are the very best of the movie. Tom Hardy is a fine and intense actor, but he is not a Star in the level of Mel. So, if you can ignore this fact, or you're too young, then you will enjoy thoroughly one of the best action movies of the year.
