Just head towards any cinema hall playing Mad Max. U r bound to be in action mood. And action it is. Mad Max: Fury Road is an Australian post-apocalyptic action film, and the fourth film of Mad Max franchise. Mad Max series has been known for Mel Gibson (59) in the title role. Sadly, this one has no Gibson at all. Times have moved forward. And a young, dashing and action-packed hero has taken over now. The world has bee overtaken by calamities and catastrophes. There has been the downfall of civilization. And time has moved on to the future. An ex-cop Max Rockatansky's (Tom Hardy, 37) family with wife Jessie (Joanne Samuel, 57) was killed in a city collapse earlier. Now, he comes across Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron, 39), a woman who is trying to cross a vast desert. She has along with her Five Wives - Queen Angharad The Splendid (Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, 28), Queen Capable (Riley Keough, 25), Queen Toast The Knowing (Zoe Kravitz, 26), The Dag Queen (Abbey Lee, 27), and Queen Cheedo The Fragile (Courtney Eaton, 19). These women are escaping from the tyrannical fascist ruler, King Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne, 67) and his ruthless army - the War Boys. They rule over a totalitarian desert kingdom - the Wasteland. Joe wants the Wives back as they can give birth to his future children to be shaped in his perverse image. The women see Max as their savior as he knows the desert like the back of his hand. But Max refuses to help them, until Joe imprisons him and tortures him. He can escape but only with the help of Furiosa and the Wives. And escape they do. With their escape, all hell breaks loose. The War Boys pursue them like mad hungry dogs. Can this band of six escape from the hot pursuit or even survive? What a dynamic action. It has to be seen to be believed. Just like Gibson, Tom Hardy has a future beyond future in Hollywood. He is an able successor to Gibson. And Charlize Theron is an action queen ready to erupt like a bomb. She is a visual delight. And the villain Byre is a revelation. He adds to the list of illustrious villains. The movie doesn't let the audience rest right from the word go. And at the ending, one is left asking for more. So there is a fifth sequel to look forward to. Can't have enough of Mad Max. Enjoy the Namibian desert and Sydney hills and lakes shoot. Junkie XL's musical score is definitely an add-on. Special effects and stunts with over 150 stunt performers, which included Cirque du Soleil performers and Olympic athletes completes this out-of-this-world movie. What more can we have! SEQUELS: 1.

Mad max The impact and aftereffects of some movies can stay on your brain for a long time. Mad Max Fury Road is that movie! It is actually a sequel to the three movies directed by George Miller, the mastermind behind all movies in this franchise including Fury Road. Many trailers were made for promotion did offered the enough reasons to watch this movie. First reason is the background score of a movie. Second reason is casting of Tom Hardy as Max character. He penetrates on a full scale with his role in a movie including his husky voice appropriate for the type of role he played. Third but not the least reason is Charlize Theron, she banged on the role as Furiosa with bald look and with prosthetic machanical left arm. The entire movie was visually stunning as due the use of post-apocalyptic earth situation. Dessert scenes are intriguing and viewers will lost in it for sure. Unlimited fight sequences, war machinised vehicles, car and bike chases, flame throwers, drummers, guitarist with speaker wall behind him, etc are some best examples of over the top visual treatment given to the screenplay. I came out of the movie theater with an expression of supriseness on my face as i loved the stunning visuals of it. Rating it as 4 / 5.

Mad Max: Fury Road is a technical achievement and in league of movies like life of pi, gravity, avatar for its technicality and the world created by mastermind'George Miller' is totally believable.Cinematography is perfect. It will surely be nominated for several oscars next year.This is one of the best action movies in years even beat out Avengers and Avengers 2. This is the movie where madness is at its peak. Background score is great too.

This is the best action movie that has ever graced the face of the earth. 2 hours of non-stop, breath-taking, adrenaline-rushing action set pieces with a very subtle feminist ideology. This mad, mad movie needs to be seen by every single person who enjoys films.

I tried people!! I tried so hard to not give a perfect score, but I succumbed; I succumbed to the brilliance I was introduced to on the screen. Two hours of movie viewing where you don't get bored for a second (I mean that quite literally!) and can't take your eyes off the screen kinda deserves a perfect score. I kept away from this for too long. It was literally sitting in my laptop while I chose to ignore it for months.. darn it! Thank God to some random review where the person requested people to sit through the first 30 mins. I thought of giving this a try and I was hooked after the first 15. No wonder this movie won 6 Oscars! It deserved each and every one of it. The brilliance of George Miller and the cinematographer who made those visuals alive on the screen are going to stay alive for generations. I think I should stop here.. if you saw the movie you know what am talking about, and if you didn't there is no way am gonna ruin the experience for you with some spoiler. So, let's give this a chance. Sit back, keep whatever you need nearby, make yourself comfy, forget that pee break, double click on that VLC file and see the magic unfurl in front of your very mortal eyes.. Valhalla rising!!

At one point in George Miller's totally whacked out new film, a character proclaims: "Oh, what a day … what a lovely day!" If you end up watching this film as I did, chances are your day will be anything but that. Mad Max: Fury Road is a totally underwhelming experience, a film that promised so much but ended up flattering to deceive. George, who also created the Mad Max Trilogy of the 80's with Mel Gibson in the titular role, goes for the jugular this time, delivering a film that's high on adrenalin but short on nuance. Plot, you ask? Immortan Joe is a dictator who presides over his subjects with an iron hand. Water, guzzoline (and common sense) are in short supply. It falls upon a rebel, Imperator Furiosa, and Max himself to liberate the country from the clutches of Joe's oppression. In fact, Furiosa (Charlize Theron in a stellar turn) is the heart and soul of this enterprise. She completely owns the screen each time she appears on it, lending a sense of urgency and gracefulness to the film's proceedings. Tom Hardy, on the other hand, is completely out of sorts. He lacks the charisma and easy charm that a leading role of this nature would inevitably demand. The whole film is basically one long explosion-filled chase down a barren, dystopian landscape that could give Panem from Hunger Games a run for its money. Problem is, the aforementioned chase takes all of two exruciating, mind-numbing hours. Miller's vision is grand and has a sweeping quality to it. The same cannot be said for his execution. A good film goes far beyond just expensive CGI and VFX. It requires a solid script, cracking dialogue and characters whom you can empathise with and relate to. In his zest for making a film that redefines the action genre, Miller unfortunately seems to have overlooked this elementary fact. I could have slept through the entirety of this film's duration and it would hardly have made a difference. In the film's very beginning, Max says, "My name is Max. My world is fire. And blood." And boring, he might have added. This Road is full of potholes.
