Glad I'm not the only one who found this to be dreadful...

Rating: 1/10 (4 November 2015)

A friend of mine is insisting that I'm the only one he knows who disliked this movie. I was gratified to come here and see the many reviews saying exactly what I feel. "The Road Warrior" is just about my favorite movie, and "Fury Road" is the antithesis of that movie--all CGI, no back story or characterization, and simply silly to boot. I wouldn't even call it a sci-fi flick, as it's more of an inane fantasy. The viewer is thrown into a plot which I would describe as "a bunch of desert freaks throw crap in your face for two hours." It made me think of the many RW rip-offs of the 80's and 90's, but with overused CGI and too much money to burn.
If you are a RW fan, I'd advise you not to bother with this. It won't sully your memory or future viewings of RW, but it will very likely disappoint. I managed to turn my wife (the farthest thing from a sci-fi geek) into a RW fan, and she too was bitterly disappointed with this and said we needed to watch RW again soon to expunge this abomination from our memories.
(Disclaimer: We only watched about 35-40 minutes before we couldn't take it anymore, but we both hated literally every moment we witnessed.)
