Petrol heads meet heavy metal....

Rating: 9/10 (26 June 2015)

Mad Max Fury Road takes elements you might expect to find in any rock concert that utilities lots of heavy metal props and tricks and marries it up to a hard core, petrol head driven world of ordered, mechanized, post apocalyptic chaos.
This is a highly visual film. There is an economy of dialogue. Instead, the actions of the key protagonists tell the story that needs to be told. As such, its hard to offer up much insight into the quality of acting, as there is not really a lot of acting, as such, on offer.
That said, this films works well because it adheres to its action formula. Its exciting and the pace builds and builds right through to the closing scenes. Perhaps the only downside is the rather anti climatic confrontation with the films key villain.
In summary this is an quality film. Its entertaining throughout and never dull. Nine out of ten from me.
