Mad Max: Fury Road
Directed by George Miller
An apocalyptic story set in the furthest reaches of our planet, in a stark desert landscape where humanity is broken, and most everyone is crazed fighting for the necessities of life. Within this world exist two rebels on the run who just might be able to restore order. From TMDB

1 Star, solely for the fleeting Presence of the Interceptor. As for the rest, Nothing to do with Mad Max, just a cross country jaunt of constant silly action. As a Fan of the Original, Mel Gibson is Mad Max, an there will be no other. I have no idea what was going through anyones mind when they tried to tie this to the Mad Max Franchise, Probably not much. If the movie had just been called Fury Road, left Mad Max …

When I saw the reviews for this movie my first thought was "Every critic has lost their minds... even me." The story is about a post-apocalyptic wasteland - the fight for survival has twisted the remnants of mankind, turning most into mad, vicious gangs. In this chaotic world two rebels may be able to restore order while seeking their own forms of redemption: Max, a man who just wants peace after losing his wife and …

Mad Max: Fury Road’s magnificent effects, editing, cinematography, and directing make it a film unmatched in almost every way. Mad Max: Fury Road floods every second of its 2-hour runtime with frenetic chaos, massive practical effects, and unparalleled mastery. George Miller produced an action movie on a scale, unlike anything I have ever seen. The effects were almost all practical, giving the movie a grit and …

Fantastic action that makes up for some plot holes.

The following is a long form review that I originally wrote in 2015. I’ll keep this’n somewhat brief, because I only saw the movie once and it was a few days ago now. Some time later on though, I will post a spoiler talk that goes into greater depth. For now though, enjoy this spoiler free review of Mad Max: Fury Road! The number one complaint I’ve been seeing about Fury Road is that there’s not much of a story. I …
How this was made: an AI model (deepseek-v4-flash) read 34 of the 266 public posts we collected about this film and wrote the summary, likes and dislikes, citing the posts behind each point ([n] opens the post).

neutral · AI labelView post →You can clip any 30 seconds from MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, and it's certfiably the most sensational, breathtaking 30 seconds of any movie made in the last 2 decades. As primal as cinema gets. The 5-Cut Square Edit at the button of this particular sequence of shots is a GOD-TIER piece of editing

neutral · AI labelView post →Friend and I were picking out a movie to watch and I mentioned Mad Max Fury Road and she asked if the plot was good and I legitimately didn’t know how to answer because it was basically like asking about the plot to a porn movie, I just have never even thought about it

(Patton Oswalt) George Miller shot something like 400 hours of film for Mad Max Fury Road, which he handed to Margaret Sixel to find the story. And that's why she got the Oscar. 😉

Have long since lost the interview (which was spiked at the 11th hour when Orson Welles died & they needed the space for tributes) but this is the transcript. multiglom.com/2015/05/12/g...

When the film pans over the entire War Party, Husb turned to me and whispered "this film is awesome!" I said "just wait!" Then the guitar flamethrower happened.

neutral · AI labelView post →One of the more amazing things about Mad Max: Fury Road is the way it men and women communicate. Max is reduced to grunts for half the film. The war boys mostly only scream catchphrases. The worse their situation, the less men talk. At their best, they mostly bluster and communicate little.

neutral · AI labelView post →I feel like the original MAD MAX gets grossly underrated in these run-the-series pieces. The amount of world-building and resourcefulness and style under budgetary limitations is incredible. Absolute top-tier exploitation movie.

Silent looks of earned trust, understanding, empathy. The unspoken connection of humanity, amid such overwhelming inhumanity.
