Best Action Movie In Recent Memory

Rating: 10/10 (30 May 2015)

Going in to this movie viewers have to be on board with the ridiculous amount of action and some over the top moments. This movie simply put is for an action lover. This film has done the things other modern day action films have failed to do. The hero is not an invincible super soldier which they well establish at the beginning. Our protagonist are rarely not in danger, sucking the audience in making is scared for them. Great enemies who don't feel like balloons being swatted away, but rather people who pose serious danger. All this creates a tense, adrenaline filled, fun time at the theatre.
This being said I don't agree with some other reviews on the character development or plot etc. The world building was great as soon as the film began showing us the struggles of the common and the actual weakness of a self proclaimed God who rules them. The character development on Max and Furiosa was small and cliché but they did it well. The character Nux was developed extremely well showing us the the human side of these faceless troops. Finally the plot was simple, but perfect for action. Our heroes steal a much wanted resource and try to escape.Simple yet a perfect plot for an action packed thrill ride as it puts the characters in situation of constant peril.
