I was afraid this was either gonna be very wack or very dope with no in between. I'm glad the reviews seem to say the latter :banderas:
It's very good . I was on the fence and I'm not usually a review I see what I want ( usually horror movies even if they have ehh reviews ) fukk it it was excellent !!! I was delivered to valhalla by Max himself :blessed: the pacing is amazing, miller has balls cause from the beginning to Max gettin to be max I could feel the audience getting impatient and getting fidgety . Then once he's unchained so to speak shyts on. It relies very little on dialogue so pay close attention to the body language in scenes

People who talking about Max appeared as a supporting role have: 1.) never watched ANY of the Mad Max movies, 2.) missed the overall point of the film.

Mad Max is a Road Warrior... which in others, he's lonely drifter. This is another story of his adventures where he comes into a conflict that had little to do with him directly, but in order for survival purposes have to make a reluctant decision on if he should help this person, or community, or group of people.

This is very much shown that Mad Mad and Furiosa are equals. In fact "Fury Road" is a play on Furiosa's name. It may center around HER story, but Max is the key for that entire story arc.
Was that chrome they were spraying in their mouths ?? I had someone cross my row the first time they used it so I thought it was some kind of painspray . By the way Nicholas hoult deserves a ton of credit I was kind of :scusthov: at him in the trailer but damn did I misjudge him and the character , (low voice ) witness me :to: Do you think the trailers might be hurting the movie ? I don't think it brings across how great a movie and story it is just mostly plays up the nonstop insanity . I hope the box office gets us the trilogy

Didn't hurt it for me man that's why I saw it first night . But none of my friends wanted to see it and we're like it looked stupid or crazy . The trailer shows nothing of the plot to people who have no use who mad max is .

Crazy? Sure, that's the point. Stupid? More like what they are for not recognizing greatness when it's right in front of them.

This movie was great. Good acting, awesome visuals, good pacing.

Solid 8.5 out of 10 for me.

But if I'm being honest I felt the characters were a little shallow, had ehhh development, and the plot overall was very predictable.

I mean it was an over the top action film so that's all fine anyway.

The trailers seen in IMAX was what sold me the movie. But this movie was a hard sell anyway due to it being a R-rated film from a franchise 30 years ago.

There's people in their 30's who were too young to ever seen any Mad Max movie. So it's a hard sell.

Also, yes it was chrome. It's part of the Warboys cult war religion. They believed that they're called to die in combat and through their death they'll get honored and born again covered in chrome.

Nukz, Nicholas Hoult's character, was disillusioned with himself because he thought he saw his calling to die for Immortan Joe, one by Immortan himself, 3 times and he survived while witnessing Immortan being as flawed as his was by accidentally killing one of the wives.

What some people may be overlooking is despite a small simplistic plot, there's deep complex levels and depth into all of these characters, that society, their culture, and the moral ambiguity of the social-political environment that exists there.

Also, the entire movie serves as an allegory in how to face adversity. You can run away from it or go through it head on. Everyone in the movie had an escapist agenda. Max and his past, Furiosa and her history, the wives and their oppression, Nukz and his awakening. Max accepted the belief that hope is all lost and running away only makes you insane. Then he came with the epiphany that instead of running away from your problems we should face and go through them head on. It's not going to be easy, but once you conquer you own problems you'll get rewarded. That entire return back to the Citadel was a metaphor about that and the quote at the end summarize the entire allegory of the movie.

so in terms of combat ability...is Furiosa superior to Max for people that have seen it?
