Max is Back

Rating: 10/10 (16 May 2015)

Mad Max Fury Road is absolutely insane. Like, even if you go in expecting to have your head blown off, you will be surprised how forceful the decapitation process is. Wow! George Miller you guys. This man has recaptured the magic of Mad Max and given us an updated version of the story that topples all of its predecessors. The fact that most of the action was filmed using practical effects just blows my mind even further! How?!?!
Charlize Theron dominates her role as Furiosa. This is truly her movie, and she is amazing in it. But hey, the Max is back. Tom Hardy is perfect has the road warrior, dealing with horrors from his past and being dragged along for an insane car chase through the middle of a post apocalyptic wasteland. These two have great chemistry and work well off of one another.
The overall scope of this film is just incredible. While it seems like an empty, hallow world, there are so many regions and places you can travel. The world George Miller created is nasty, gritty, and just plain disgusting at times. I was so sucked in to the world and all the characters involved with it. I can't wait for more of these. I just wanna go back.
Overall, Mad Max Fury Road is a breathtaking experience, filled with amazing action sequences and some of the best looking visual effects I have ever seen. If any film in 2015 unseats Mad Max as my favorite film of the year, we are in for quite a year. Mad Max is incredible awesomeness.
