On the other hand the claimed "depth" of the characters is limited to 1 (the warchild). Also: women are fighting to be not property, is correct, but it seems that without two random men met along the way their plan would simply fail. What a great message. Said so, I believe is a great stunt and action movie, certainly much better than many others. Is a masterpiece? No. I believe is just better than many others, but still I would have liked something more than just fights to reach location B from location A, then discover was a bad idea and return to location A fighting all the way back. Is a good action videogame. But, well, is as thin as a leaf of paper.… Expand

Should have named it Mad Maxine. Max was gagged most of the movie so the real testosterone in the movie could do her thing. Silly and illogical. Waste of time and money.

That was a stretch as this movie has zero plot, zero dialogue and no character development. We both looked at each other and we were like, what the f..k is going on? It's like one big loud car chase and that's how it starts out. There was about 8 minutes of non car chase but they did scream through those scenes as well. Also, the dialogue was strange. If they weren't yelling, you really couldn't understand what they were saying. I am not sure why all the so called real "movie critics" enjoyed this movie. It was probably one of the worst movies I have ever seen. This movie is an example on why movies like Birdman get all the hype when in reality, they are really not that great and it's just basic word of mouth even in today's digital world. SKIP this one and catch it on HBO or skip it all together.… Expand

I was blown away. I had never seen such a strange, skewed future world. Had never seen such kinetic film making. Had never seen such good post-apocalyptic science fiction on screen. Then Miller made Mad Max II (Road Warrior in the USA) and topped himself in every way. Thunderdome was a genuine letdown compared to the first two films.

But Thunderdome... is Citizen Kane compared to this one. Not only is Fury Road plotless, it is pointless, besides. Max loses his iconic Interceptor in the first five minutes, and that might as well be a metaphor for the whole movie. We learn nothing about Max, beyond his mumbled, "I used to be a cop.." There is no character development. There is no coherent plot, for that matter. Charlize Theron's character, Furiosa, is essentially an expansion of the "Warrior Woman" from MM2. But not much of one. She's tough as nails... but, so what? And, just like Max and the Warrior Woman, nothing comes of Furiosa's relationship with Max. Not even a kiss. The first time Max was neutered like that, it was unique and interesting. The second... a disappointment. But then, what woman would want Max, anyway? He grunts like Clint in a spaghetti Western with twice the story, and has fewer lines than a Terminator. In Fury Road, he isn't even a very good fighter, except in a scene... that occurs off camera!

No, I'm afraid that everything is wrong about Fury Road, with the exception of the amazing road scenes. But those are rendered pointless by a plot that makes Eraserhead deep by comparison.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Simply the worst movie I have seen in years. Filling 2 hours with non-stop action does not make a movie good. Especially if the action is repetitive (pale guys jumping on and off a truck). Sometimes you can guess the movie was filmed at a very low speed and was later accelerated in the montage, like when the cars flip over.
The wives don't fit in the picture, apparently they just wanted to add some spice to the movie. It gets funny when they attempt to act. Of course, one of the wives is pregnant and her belly starts to hurt at a quite unpleasant time, sad coincidence.
You come out of the theater asking yourself what the hell you just spent 2 hours looking at. Definitely not a masterpiece, even if all critics around the world seem to think otherwise. It's in fact so bad that i signed up to metacritic just to write a honest review about how bad it was.
Apparently if you write a random hyperbole about a oil-monarchy and how unfair it is to its peasants with some totally random heros fighting it, you are guaranteed of success. It's so deep because I can relate it easily to the world i live in without having to think too much. Masterpiece. Bravo.

This movie will give you a real sensation of madness. The world is running low on water and gasoline and the whole plot depends on this fact, since the control of a water resource makes Immortan Joe the Lord of the Citadel. But throughout theThis movie will give you a real sensation of madness. The world is running low on water and gasoline and the whole plot depends on this fact, since the control of a water resource makes Immortan Joe the Lord of the Citadel. But throughout the movie both of these precious resources are wasted without care.

Major spoilers follow, I will give some examples for why this movie made me cringe:

Mad Max seems to be mad in a very cliché way: He hallucinates about people who he could not save in the past. But only at the beginning of the movie and near the end, totally not plot related. It's like the makers remembered Max was actually mad and had to somehow contribute to this picture. It does not work at all and makes little sense.
After Furiosa steals Joe's wives, half of the Citadel follows her (yes, the movie is a two hour long chase scene) and they take Mad Max with them as a blood sack. My girlfriend asked why they need him for the chase and the answer is: They don't, but if they would not take him to the chase he would not take part in the movie.
The chase has its ups and downs, there are fights (about 60-80% of the movie are fights) but eventually Furiosa and Max always get away. When they get away a little too far, their truck breaks and they have to repair it, so the bad guys catch up a little and the movie goes on. This happens three times in 120 minutes, it's a shame for professional writers to use such devices to artificially prolong the tension...

The writers also tried to break the manly hero scheme and give Furiosa some attention. It ends up with Max's character being so bleak that one does not really remember a thing he said throughout the movie, except because it was so stereotypical that you shivered ("Hope is a mistake."). The gestures of other characters towards Furiosa to assert her leading position are ridiculous: Like Max giving away his last sniper shot to her and serving as an object to lean her rifle on.

The part with the bad guy (Nux) turns good and becomes best friends with one of Joe's wives (while sentimental piano music is playing in the background) after talking to her for 35 seconds makes this movie seem like a joke.

The weakest point of the movie is the plot: Furiosa steals Joe's wives, wanting to bring them to the "green place". After 80 minutes of chase, they finally reach their destination and find out the place does not exist anymore. It would be a good ending, at least it would make the movie a little less stereotypical after a whole movie of exploding cars. But the characters decide to just go back from where they came. Yes. Really. That is the whole movie. They go from A to B being chased, then go back from B to A so the movie can go on and a showdown may take place. I cannot imagine the whole script being longer than 3 pages, except every car explosion was scripted separately.

As said in the beginning, this movie gives you a real experience of madness. After you watch this movie, you realise you actually already live in a world full of War Boys who only long for gasoline, explosions and violence. They go and watch Mad Max: The Fury Road and other cheap Hollywood blockbusters and then rate it 10/10 on the Internet. It opens your eyes to the wasteland we live in: The cinematic wasteland, where good plot and dialogue are the rarest resources on Earth. The end scene, where Max disappears in the crowd is a perfect prediction to what will happen to this movie: It will be forgotten, because there is nothing worth remembering.

One point for ridiculous and totally over the top villains. Made me laugh, but only for 2 minutes of 120.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What an awful movie, I've seen terrible movies before, but this one it's definitely in my Top 10 worst movies I've seen. It's just a car chase, they leave the first place, to another, running away from the bad guy, then the other place it's not what they remembered and they're disappointed, they come back to the start and kill the bad guy in the process. Almost no dialogue, the unnecessary guitar player in every other take, and that's it, Mad Max does almost nothing, he just shows up and says nothing for the entire movie. Ah, and some pregnant girls appear. I don't see why for people it's the best movie ever. Just because a movie has a car chase, lots of guns and lots of crazy people in it, doesn't make it a great movie, let alone a decent movie, just awful and with no significant story line whatsoever.… Expand

I must admit I have no idea where all.these high ratings are coming from. I was really looking forward to this movie. I pretty much found nothing good about it. I should mention I am 61 yr. Old. Maybe that explaines this to some. But really II must admit I have no idea where all.these high ratings are coming from. I was really looking forward to this movie.

Was there even a story line? I see there are many that disagree with me. So be it. Just my opinion. You all have a good day and God Bless.… Expand

It is all the worse because I consider the first two films in the installment classics; especially Road Warrior. These films had a visceral emotion that, in retrospect, I had no right to expect from anything made with today's technology. What is strikingly shocking is that this film does offer some "real" stunts...but they're worthless unless you appreciate them in a vacuum. The movie is a complete mess: Max is a eunuch, unable to muster even a single moment of greatness, a single line of dialogue worth remembering, or even a reason to pull for him. The rest of the characters are completely lacking of development; and women are either used and abused, or superheroes (how, we don't know) that have survived in the wasteland...waiting for what? Charize to come along and lead them? It's absolute garbage, that leads to nowhere..over and over again. Watch a real movie: Road Warrior, The Good the Bad and The Ugly; hell, watch El Mariachi (I'm serious)....and have fun with two+hours of your life.… Expand

Realized pretty quickly that this movie's plot is bland and it's just simply a movie for 10-13 year old children who are so easily amused (not that I'd ever let my future kids watch this brain-cell destroying movie). If anyone says they like this movie, then I'm sorry but I ain't listening to any other movie critiques you have. There's no tension, over-dramatic characters that turn into white noise after a few minutes, and the slowest plot development I've ever seen in a movie, it takes more than half the movie to even know what the hell is going on and whose side you should even be on. I hate this movie with a passion but props to the low-standard individuals who found some enjoyment out of it.… Expand

Why do people like this movie so much? Except the ludicrous over the top high octane purposeless 1 hour and 45 minutes of action sequences (This is something people apparently like?) it has nothing going for this lifeless shallow Best PictureWhy do people like this movie so much? Except the ludicrous over the top high octane purposeless 1 hour and 45 minutes of action sequences (This is something people apparently like?) it has nothing going for this lifeless shallow Best Picture nominee..... Ugh. This movie is probably the worst best picture nominee since god knows how long ago.

Let's face it, compared to the originals 2015's Requel/Seboot Mad Max: Fury Road is story wise disgraceful, because it barely has any, the only thing this movie does have is purposeless and lifeless action scene upon chase sequence upon explosions upon crazy characters and other ridiculous stuff, the story is non existence (The things they could've done in 2015 and with all the resources George Miller had available, they did this?!?), the characters are stail and bland, the performances were bad because it mostly consisted of stares and grunting, the dialogue it did have was kindergarten level laughable, and overall as a fan of the originals this was just a massive disappointment and a disgrace towards the Academy for nominating it 10 times.

Of Course i'm not here to solely hate, so what were the positive things?
The score was great (why wasn't this nominated), the costume/production design was impeccable, and the use of practical effects was sort of impressive.

As a final note, i've seen this movie once in the theatre, i liked half of it after that it got incredibly boring because it pretty much is a 1 hour and 45 minute car chase with cringe worthy moments in between because George Miller thought it should have at least SOMETHING of a dramatic element in this. I wanted to watch it again because of how high it was rated after looking it up on IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes. To my full surprised even Critics were raving about this. HOW? So i wanted to watch it again, but i didn't want to give Miller more of my money and i didn't want to go through that painful experience again.… Expand

Why? Was this film even created under the name of Mad Max? It was all about a car chase that went no where. Waste of time and energy avoid at all costs

Where other movies stumble over the magnitude of their ambitions, or fail to utilize the Visual Medium (tm) in conveying grand ideas, this film is sat out front with a raised hand and a smirk, eager to tell you about the things it did right.Where other movies stumble over the magnitude of their ambitions, or fail to utilize the Visual Medium (tm) in conveying grand ideas, this film is sat out front with a raised hand and a smirk, eager to tell you about the things it did right.

Mad Max?? This movie is about Charlize. It has almost nothing to do with the originals and Max is not mad here, here is a crazy spineless wimp.

That is what many of you do not even watch a movie a year and do not even know what is mise-en-scène and if they are the filmmakers, only cinema is the only thing that you do not understand.
The film has a simple story, but it is simple and very well told and efficient, full of social criticism, destruction of the environment for the purpose of domination, deconstruction of the lone wolf that saves the girl in the end, the comparison of humans in tools system, enslavement of women for reproductive and merely sexual purposes, mental manipulation of young people for sacrifice in the name of a god. FURIA ROAD IS A WORK-PREMIUM AND THE CINEMA IN ITS PUREST STATE. GREATEST ACTION MOVIE JA PERFORMED.… Expand
