A beginning to end thrill-ride!

Rating: 9/10 (16 August 2015)

I'm one of the few people who wasn't a huge fan of the original Mad Max trilogy so i didn't rush to see this movie. However, i started this movie intending on watching the opening scene and it hooked me for the entire movie! Action, action, action!!! It's a chase movie, surrounded by chaos and madness! The colours bounce off the screen like a comic book. The golden day scenes to the blue night scenes are beautiful!
Contrary to what people say, there is an exciting story and plot with heavy character development. Max (hardy) is a solemn character similar to Leone's man with no name; it's his actions and decisions that define him. As always, Theron goes above and beyond and truly holds the film together. For me, Nichols Hoult was the biggest surprise. I've scene Hardy and Theron over the years, always delivering, but i was only familiar with Hoult from Skins and X-Men. This is without a doubt his best performance to date. Fury Road is more than a popcorn flick so treat yourself and watch it!
