My favorite part of this movie is the change in meaning from the what Nux means when saying "witness me." How at the beginning it's an empty ego thing, and at the end it's a plea for the one girl to remember him.
Always gets me in the feels, i read somewhere that Nux is the only one to actually have gone to Valhalla, unlike everyone else, because he was carried away by 3 Valkyries, the ladies watching him
The director's wife edited it down from 470 hours of footage (and won an Oscar for it), and they used practical effects wherever possible. The original movies with Mel Gibson are pretty good too, and there's a prequel to Fury Road coming.
They built every single one of those cars, and ran them at 50 mph across the desert. And each and every one is packed to the gills with world-building references. At least, they were, until they got blowed-up.
In my opinion one of the best action movies of all time.
I agree
Here's an interesting thing George Miller said about his original Max series. He was somewhat surprised by the success of Mad Max. A friend told him to check out Samurai films. He saw the formula. Stranger rides into town. Saves the townspeople from evil marauders. Rides into the sunset alone, still a stranger. They use it in westerns too. Hell, the Magnificent Seven was a remake of Seven Samurai.That's TOTALLY the Road Warrior. It's a perfect film. And a fantastic showcase for the stuntmen. You really should watch it.
It's a solid template.
While Seven Samurai/Magnificent Seven is the more popular, Max is more like Yojimbo and it's remake A Fistful of Dollars.
George Miller directed this film at 70, after his great success with his excellent but very unexpected previous film, the animated family tale of dancing penguins called "Happy Feet".
I think Steven Soderbergh said it best:
"The ability to stage well is a skill and a talent that I value above almost everything else. And I say that because there are people who do it better than I’ll ever be able to do it after 40 years of active study. I just watched Mad Max: Fury Road again last week, and I tell you I couldn’t direct 30 seconds of that. I’d put a gun in my mouth. I don’t understand how [George Miller] does that, I really don’t, and it’s my job to understand it. I don’t understand two things: I don’t understand how they’re not still shooting that film and I don’t understand how hundreds of people aren’t dead."
Watch the behind the scenes stuff. That flame throwing guitar guy and all the cars, NOT CGI.
Principal photography began in July 2012 in Namibia, with most of the filming based in the Dorob National Park. Some scenes were also shot at the Cape Town Film Studios in Cape Town, South Africa.
I like the mentality George came into making the first Mad Max movie with, and it seems like he really got to come back to it: the idea that you could sit down, watch the film, and even if you didn't speak the language, you knew what it was about.
You should check out all the Mad Max movies. Granted they are older, but some great stories!
A few months ago I would never have imagined liking a reaction channel but now? You’re one of my favorites
The original Mad Max was 1979. 40+ years ago. The fact that sequels are still being made speaks to the story and the fanbase.
The last quote explains why max leaves at the end of the movie. He is still searching for his redemption. The book called the first history man is supposed to be the first collection of historical tales after the apocalypse and it's filled with mythologized stories of max wandering the wasteland looking for redemption and making the world a better place. Almost like a religion
Immortan Joe was played by Hugh Keays-Byrne--who also played Toecutter in the original Mad Max from 1979. Sadly, he passed away at the end of 2020 at the age of 73.
Check out the original Mad Max films starring Mel Gibson.
Charlize Theron as Furiousa was epic. She’s a badass actress.
There’s a great behind the scenes making of Mad Max Fury Road. Definitely worth the watch.
As action films go, this one is a masterpiece. Some of the scenes it's impossible to imagine how they filmed it without killing half the crew. Then there are the moments where the action is so intense, but they bring in these themes in the score that are heroic, and resolute while not being frantic. It's like serene madness. The original Mad Max is an entirely different kind of film, but it has a totally unique character/feel to it, that I think everyone should see.
How? 80% of this movie was just a pointless chase scene through the desert. They get all the way to the end and they're like "oh no, we just have to go all the way back to where we were in the first place." WHAAATTT!?!? So you're telling that 20 minute chase scene I just watched was 100% pointless!?!? Now I have to watch another pointless 20 minute chase scene so they can get back to where they already were!?!?
@@Sandman60077 Oh, sweetie.
Learn to read narrative and/or the visual language of film. You're missing libraries of content.
While this version of Mad Max is intended to be a reboot and not a prequel/sequel, I would still recommend watching the original trilogy, if you haven't yet. It can sort of give some insight into how the world ended up the way it did. The lores of the old vs new aren't canon with each other, but they still follow a similar premise.
No, it's not a reboot. Well, they call it a "soft reboot", but George Miller admits that it's still part of the story. In order: Mad Max, Mad Max 2, Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome, Fury Road, and eventually Furiosa and Mad Max 5.
at least watch Road Warrior.
George Miller has likened the Mad Max films to Greek mythology. The legends of the gods and heroes aren't a linear progression. So the Mad Max stories aren't like boxcars on a train but more brush strokes on a larger canvas.
@@rodentnolastname6612 The Mad Max comic likened Max to a myth. He just pops up in the wastes, kills a whole lotta people that need killing, and then disappears into the desert again and again.
@@Wesleech the best of them all.
Every vehicle in the film had it's own mythology...For example, Furiosa's war- rig was fabricated to repair while in motion. Max is the OG anti hero . .. I highly recommend the original trilogy, especially The Road Warrior. Joseph Campbell's mythology works at its best . Original film script 👌 Fury Road voted best action film of the past 20 years with 6 Oscar's under its belt.
It was filmed in Namibia, Sydney(Which the Film`s set in a post-apocalyptic version of), Angola and South Africa( Where Charlize Theron was born.)
best action movie of the teens and contender for top 5 ever.
This movie just gets your blood pumping as its such a wild ride. Every time I see flaming guitar guy I always get goose bumps.
AND ITS 99% REAL F/X. All those crazy vehicles actually built!
There's a reason why alot of Americans call Australians our crazy cousins! We're like, "yeah We're crazy, but not as crazy as Aussies!" Lol!
Hello Kabir, I hope you don't mind I drop some lore stuff. For more context, Fury Road happens after a series of canon short stories published by Vertigo Comics that tell the sides of Furiosa, Max, Immortan Joe, and the Wives, among other characters. You could also say the tie-in videogame that released after Fury Road is also an alternate version of those comics. Essentially it shows the wars that established the most powerful forces in the Wasteland(Gastown, The Citadel, and Bullet Farm), the struggles of Furiosa and the Wives before they escaped and how Max has visions in Fury Road of people he had let die. Many mistake that the little girl is his daughter, but there's a sequence in the comics, and the game where he rescues a girl and her mother from the Buzzard faction(the Russian speaking drivers who are also cannibals and underground dwellers), but then they die violently soon after they escape. Some of his visions are also of people Max had taken advantage of in a vendetta to avenge the little girl. See, after Max's original family had died he has struggled to make himself vulnerable and voluntarily cuts himself off to avoid being hurt again, but being human he has still given others a chance to bond with him, only for it to be taken from him again and again. The little girl was the last straw for him that broke him almost completely, and that's why he looks so feral in the beginning of this movie compared to the other Mad Max films. A lot of people said that when this movie came out they were disappointed that Max wasn't the focus, but it makes sense to me. He's a nomad, and every Max Max story is about the people he helps and about the legend he builds around himself(beautifully showcased when he retaliated against the Bullet Farmer). And at this point he's become somewhat an unreliable narrator if given the part because of how crazed out he's become. Some would even argue that from his point of view that half of what he experiences is just his PTSD messing with him. Man, I love Mad Max so much.
Hey Kabir, fun fact, the black girl with short hair is Lenny Kravitz's daughter. The song flowers for Chloe he wrote was for her when she was born.
She was also the new Catwoman in The Batman.
"Capable" was her character's name, for obvious reasons. Zoe Kravitz is also Catwoman in the new Batman. Really impressive!
Definitely one of the most visually epic movies ever!
I just read Blood, Sweat and Chrome. The making of and history of getting this movie made.
One of the greatest books I have ever read.
I stopped the play for a moment to say I really enjoy your content. Fun stuff! Even when the video is not my cup of tea, I enjoy your reactions. Thanks.
YEAH! One of my most favorite movies EVER!
Oh Kabir. No No no. you need to have watched the original Mad Max. It's a Classic, and this supposed to continue where we left off many many years ago.
Nicholas Hoult deserved at least a nomination for best supporting actor. Nux was a great supporting character, a young soldier dying to cancer who just wanted to be remembered.
Then again the Oscars have been a joke for a long time.
Should've watched the original 1979 _'Mad Max'_ with Mel Gibson before his rise to fame. That's where you get to see how the character of Max was truly born. Gibson is, was and will always be the *_TRUE_* Max Rockatansky...
Mel Gibson's too old and too radioactive to be Max anymore. Tom Hardy does as good a job in the role as anybody can, and is an excellent successor. Far better than, say, Chris Pine as a new James T. Kirk.
This is one of the best action films ever. I grew up with the original trilogy with Mel Gibson and I was not looking forward to this one, what a idiot.😂
When I saw the first trailer, featuring nothing but a car chase and running combat, I thought it just looked like a Road Warrior rehash with a much bigger budget. The actual movie is more than that trailer hinted at though.
Kabir, there a prequel to this movie coming out entitled Furiosa. It's not gonna have Charlize Theron in it, but a different actress playing a young Furiosa.
Also, if you want to check out what the fans of this franchise do, check out any video on RUclips about Wasteland Weekend. It's a 3 or 4 day festival of sorts out in the California desert where everybody dresses up in post-apocalyptic garb and they bring their own wasteland vehicles. It's pretty badass, but you gotta see it to believe it. I'd love to see you react that stuff. In fact, for Wasteland Weekend 2016, I think, that big bald headed bad guy dude made an appearance there in full character costume from this film.
You asked where they filmed this? They filmed it in the deserts of Namibia, just north of South Africa, and west of Botswana, on the west coast of Africa. It's like one of the dryest places on Earth, because of the way the ocean currents run in the region.
Regarding the dryness; ironically, IIRC, I think they had to relocate shooting at one point because there was a rare rainfall and the desert exploded overnight in one of those "superblooms" of flowers, as every plant biding its time grabbed the opportunity to attempt procreation. I think they happen in parts of the Mojave in California, too, and in other deserts. A shockingly beautiful phenomenon, but not great for an apocalypse movie.
13:20 teamwork makes the dream work lol
It doesn't go into what started the apocalypse, but the clues are it was a nuclear war where the Northern Hemisphere became uninhabitable, and the Southern (mainly Australia) is barely habitable. In my opinion the second Mad Max (Road Warrior) is the best, followed by Fury Road. The third (Beyond Thunder Dome) is pretty good, but goofy in parts. The first (Mad Max) is low budget, good for that budget, and sets up how the character started, and why he has a moral code.
Great Movie! Action packed from start to finish!
I LOVE this movie! Great reaction, seems like you had a great time!
You gotta watch the original Mad Max and its sequel Mad Max The Road Warrior with Mel Gibson both classics !
You'd have to watch Mad Max 1 to really understand how messed up Max is.
My friend was leaving this movie with his girlfriend. He asked her if she liked it. "I don't know. It seemed like one big car chase."
"I KNOW WASN'T IT AWESOME?"
It was a chasity belt.
You should react to what is March Madness? since is coming up in March is a college basketball tournament
37:37 Max is no king. He believes that he deserves no happiness. :)
13:25
I mean, if you want to know what happened to Max Watch the other movies! This is the fourth movie in the series so you really shouldn’t skip the first three! (And to anyone wanting to say no this is a reboot I’m sorry but that’s not correct. Because they recast the main actor doesn’t mean it immediately becomes a reboot; this is the same movie they were trying to make with Mel Gibson as the fourth movie for years and they didn’t change the script or anything else when they moved on with another actor)
Sure, but I think Miller's suggested that there isn't really a strict timeline. Max is kinda a "Paul Bunyan"-type figure of folklore in the Fallen World (hence the suggestive ending quote from "The First History Man"), so the movies can be taken as various retellings of events that may be true, legendary, or some combination thereof. Also lots of suggestions of the tellers of the stories not being strictly reliable, either due to memories being corrupted by hard living, stories getting inadvertently altered as they're passed from teller to teller, or any of the other thousands of ways human memory can warp reality. We're storytellers, but that's very different from being a historian, as any historian will tell you (at length and with passion).
Doesn't mean the other movies aren't also worth seeing, though, or that they don't add to the overall sense of Max's world.
@@michaelccozens completely agree, but it also seems like now that Max is entering this folklore-ish perspective it means that his origin is less likely to be explored so if that’s what you want to know, you’re probably still have to see the originals. Personally the only original one I like is the Road Warrior, but it doesn’t mean they don’t all explain the backstory pretty well.
For some reason, my autocorrect tried to change that movie title to “Road Lawyer”. And that is a movie I absolutely want to see.
You never watched Mad Max? Or the Road Warrior (that's the best one)? And then there's Thunderdome. That's not a bad one. You're going backwards.
Absolutely at least watch Road Warrior but if you can watch the first Mad Max first. For another apocalyptic movie from the opposite POV watch Waterworld with Kevin Costner.
The timeline of this movie is a bit confused. Max was a cop so society must have been holding together until his 20's. But furiosa who is the same age as max was born into an already established post-apocalyptic society. Furiosa was also like twenty when she got kidnapped so kinda weird that nobody from her tribe recognized her.
When will you watch Sicario 2?!
This movie has nothing on Sicario, 1 or 2,..just saying 😊
Got a free poster when i went to the opening weekend at the movies
You've never seen the original?!
That spray is like some kind of stimulant?
I think they're just huffing, but they spray directly into they're faces instead of into a paper bag.
Original made max was with a young Mel Gibson then cane the road warrior
20 years ago? 20 years ago it was 2003. Try almost 45 years ago.
Watch the original mad max it's the best
All the vehicles were built. Nothing is faked when it comes to the vehicles.
Kabir you mentioned you like reacting to anime, so if you ever want to do reactions to series, you might consider The Legend of Vox Machina. It's kind of taking the Western anime genre by storm, and it'll definitely get you a lot of views.
dunno why they attached Mad Max to this other than to save all the women. should have just called it Australia Showdown or something.
I'd highly recommend checking out Dredd and if you want a unique movie experience Hardcore Henry (and Upgrade from the same director a few years later, which is also awesome). Dredd is legit as good as Fury Road, it just didn't do good at the box office for some reason. Hardcore Henry is a first person movie basically with amazing parkour and action scenes.
Yeah, I actually bought Hardcore Henry. I loved all the character Sharlto Copley played. And I loved seeing Russia up close. I don't know, I just really like that film.
Dredd is not even close to as good
Have you watched Troy?
Down to biznazz
We are both first I find this funny because what are the chances of that? Anyway congratulations on being first 🥇
Have you seen Mad Max 1, 2 & 3.
DAM XAM!
You should have watched the previous ones first
💗
You should react to the green Mile you will need some tissues 100%
Try the last of us show.
Made me laugh when you asked how long Max had "been asleep for" after the dust storm wreck. I'm assuming you've never been knocked out before, which is a good thing.
When you sleep, you wake up, and you're rested. When you're knocked out, you regain consciousness and have no idea wtf happened, lol. Wayyyy different
Enjoyed the reaction, and glad you liked the film. Super over the top and dystopian movie, but I've liked every Mad Max film. .
17:23 She wasn't daring him, she was using herself and the baby as a shield so he wouldn't shoot, think more critically......
Well, using a human shield is basically daring your adversary to make a move. So...
I really hope George Miller gets the sequel done before he starts getting to old to even function or stand. He was 70 something when he made this.
Charlize Theron is a badass**. You should see her in "The Old Guard." She actually really killed her father. He regularly beat her mother, and when she was a teen, he was beating her mom to death, but she put an end to it and him.
Yeah, not true. Her mother killed her father in self defense.
No other comment then nice reaction to à bad version of MAD MAX ( Mel Gibson is MAD MAX ) Now go see the 3 MAD MAX Mel Gibson made and forget this one
For the life of me I can't understand how people think this movie is so great. The entire middle 80% of the movie is totally pointless. The first 10% and the last 10% are the only parts that have any meaning. Most of this movie was just a pointless chase scene through the desert. They get all the way to the end and they're like "oh no, we just have to go all the way back to where we were in the first place." WHAAATTT!?!? So you're telling that 20 minute chase scene I just watched was 100% pointless!?!? Now I have to watch another pointless 20 minute chase scene so they can get back to where they already were!?!?
I agree. I actually forced myself to watch it a second because I figured I must've missed some important info. But nope, they literally throw away the plot after 5 minutes and then pick it up again for the last 5 minutes. The only people who would like this movie are people entertained by shiny objects and jingling keys.
Do you feel better? Lol. It obviously wasn't made for you.
@@Andrew-vw5vb It wasn't made for me? WTF does that even mean? I'm a Mad Max fan, and I'm an action film fan. But I guess you're right, this movie was probably made for people with the intellect of a toddler who (like the person above said) are entertained by "shiny objects and jingling keys" 😂
You can stop copypasting this response, kid. It's doing the opposite of what you think it is. This movie is the definition of "every frame a painting".
@@michaelccozens Maybe if the painter is a 2 year old and he's painting with his own feces.
Doesn't matter how many times he posts it, he's right.
One of the greatest movie ive ever witness. Literally screaming witness me while watching this😂 Ive ignored this film for so long thinking it was just another racing movie and boy was i dead wrong
