Apocalyptic desert thrill ride to save concubines and find redemption

Rating: 6/10 (9 July 2015)

Mad Max: Fury Road is jam packed with non-stop action and chase sequences, but the seriously lacking story line resulted in a movie with no depth or real character investment. This is a shame because the little bit of back story teased was engaging and could have been developed into something that would have left an impression beyond explosions and crashes. The imagery, set, costumes, stunts and visual effects are impressive and if you're looking to be entertained for two hours with high energy trucks, suped-up cars, motorcycles and creepy humanesque things going boom, then this is the movie for you. Also, how is all the oil being refined into gasoline in this future wasteland?
