Not a so lovely day without Mel.

Rating: 4/10 (17 May 2015)

I'm sorry, but this movie really lacks heart. Tom was awful. CGI was bad. Plot was simple. Not very realistic in parts of the movie. This movie needed Mel Gibson for his acting and direction. No classic in my book. Stick to MM1 and MM2. Just as George Lucas tried to relive the past and failed, so does George Miller sadly. No Mel No Good. I tried so hard to love this movie and gave it a fair go. I felt emotions with Furiosa and the girls at times, but from the beginning it left a foul taste in my mouth when we see Max eat a lizard. How ridiculous was that. Lizard skins are way to tough to chew and even if Max had a beer, he would still choke. I quickly dismissed that scene as to not let it affect my overall judgement, but there was so much more unrealistic crap that it was hard to really love it. I may watch it one more time on Blu-ray at home in 6 months, but unlike MM1 and 2 which I've seen over 50 times, it won't be part of my classic collection. Shame.
