Just to let you know - this wasn't a movie. This was a documentary which covers 48 hours in the life of a milk truck delivery driver in the Australian outback.
True story.
You lie!
If it was there would be Kangaroos trying to kill them.
It's too tame to be real.
another typical day on the Bruce Hiighway honestly but with less dangerous drivers.
Try driving in Russia ... that's 10 times worse.
I haven’t laughed this hard at a comment in a while
They did hire cirque du soleil. They got the idea of the polecats from watching them and ended up hiring them as stunt men for the film. They all wear masks so they can re-use the same stunt men and actors for those roles.
that's sick
If I remember correctly, there is a similar stunt in the first Mad Max with a pole but obviously the budget didn't allow for George Miller to fully realise his vision.
Thank you all for watching today! ^^
Have you seen the first 3 Mad Max films, or did you just jump into part 4 (Fury Road)?
Not that it matters. Fury Road is kind of disconnected from the other 3.
But Mad Max (1979), Mad Max 2: Road Warrior (1981), and Mad Max 3: Beyond Thunderdome (1985) are worth watching.
Sidenote: the film is vertically stretched in your reaction video. Don't know if that's to avoid copyright strikes or if it's an editing mistake.
I think you were looking for the word "cyberpunk"? lol I havent done watching, maybe you figured it out in the end. But just in case coz no one is mentioning it so far
@@takewhataway where do you see any "cyber" in this? XD
It's hard to classify. Many say dieselpunk bit it's definatly not. It has some elements of it but not many. Its an own style. I don't have a name for it. Post apocalyptic yes, But long after. Environmentally degraded. But also socially very much.
Witness me, Mary! Great reaction! This movie is an amazing symphony of violence and mayhem!
Thank you for your reactions. I watched your video twice (and some parts more than that). It was fun!
This quote from director Steven Soderbergh about Mad Max is fantastic; I love a director giving props to another director:
"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."
I would love to watch a commentary from Soderbergh as he watches the film. That would be deeply interesting. Because they guy is a really good director, but I love the humility to recognize when he has no clue.
@@mycroft16 I'd love that, too, but I'm pretty sure Steve would do as the rest of us would, which is just to repeat "How the fuck did they *do* this?!" over and over again (when you can remember to breathe, that is).
"Every frame a painting" is usually an aspiration, but it appears to be just how Miller does business. And he's in his 70s, for God's sake. It's like watching a pensioner effortlessly dismantle the World Cup champions.
@@michaelccozens Lol. true. And even movies like Babe are freaking painterly. That film has some really gorgeous shots in it.
@@mycroft16 Babe is great, although I can't help but point out it's a Nightmare Before Christmas situation where Miller gets a lot of the credit but didn't actually direct it. He did direct the second one.
@@mycroft16 thats because Miller’s been thinking passionately about this project for nearly 30 years and thought about every aspect of it right down to the smallest detail. this is something hollywood rarely does.
"Did they hire Cirque du soleil to do this?" Yes, yes they did. The polecats were literally from Cirque du soleil and trained with the stuntmen.
The insane part about this movie is, when you wonder "how did they do that?!" the answer is... they just actually did it for real.
The best part is when you realise that in addition to everything on screen, there must also have been at least one or two camera vehicle, weaving in and out. Madness.
There is some CGI, but it's still largely practical. The work involved must have been staggering.
Yeah. They must have hired the most insane stuntmen on the planet.
Crazy they actually tore Immortan Joe s face off, awkward for the actor.
@@HunHaze Dedication to the craft.
One of the most intense movies of all time, directed by a man in his 70s who previously made Happy Feet and Babe.
LOL. Well, yes, but he also made ALL of the original Mad Max movies, which are still some of the best action films of any generation.
If you were to watch Babe 2: Pig in the City and this movie back to back, you wouldn't be surprised they were the same person.
@@ennuieffect 100% George Miller is great, his filmography is so extensive and varried it's impressive and funny to look at the polar opposites hes pulled off.
@@Pink.andahalf lol Babe 2 is a bizarre thing... good film but definitely not what you'd expect as a sequel to Babe. Almost nightmarish.
@@NZBigfoot Now I'm looking up Babe 2!
Nux, man... that is just an incredible moment. The quiet little "witness me" is just phenomenal acting
The movie could easily be called "Mad Max: Fury Road: Nux's Redemption"
This is such a great film. The ultimate "Show, don't tell" in movie making.
funny story too!they drove to point B from point A, then drive back to point A from point B!
@@bernhardtsen74 its basically a giant nascar race
Max usually isn't the hero in the movies. He just helps the hero and moves on.
Absolute Chad character. 😁
He's like an Aussie version of the old Western Hero from the serials. Rides into town, kills the bad guys, saves the townspeople, rides off into the sunset.
He's not even a hero in the first movie. The only movie that's actually about max and he's just some guy who suffers one of the worst tragedies possible and goes so completely insane he just shuts down completely as a human and basically becomes a feral animal.
This is exactly why, whenever some rube on the internet complains about Fury Road being "more about Furiosa than Max" or whatnot, I automatically assume they aren't a fan of Mad Max movies to begin with. It's such an obnoxious dog whistle.
@@nintendopet114 well, not really Feral. But Close enough.
The Road Warrior (1981) is the second film in the Mad Max series, and also a masterpiece... worth reacting to.
I like both the original Mad Max and The Road Warrior. Thunderdome is OK but definitely the weakest of the four.
Yes, a masterpiece!
For sure
@@tylerfoster6267 Yep, me too. Kennedy at one time said he wanted to do a sequel with Max returning to his old city after years of wandering. That would make a great one, but I doubt it'll ever be done since they're taking the character in a different direction, making him more of a mythological, legendary figure.
Agree. The road warrior is the best one imo
Nominated for 10 Oscars including Best Picture but won for:
Best Sound Mixing
Best Film Editing
Best Costume Design
Best Makeup
Best Production Design
Best Sound Editing.
When this movie first came out, it didn't get the critical acclaim it deserved for some reason. Since then, though, it's pretty much been accepted as a classic.
I love this movie.
Deserving of every one of them as well. The production quality on Fury Road is stellar. And the same guy made Happy Feet -- which isn't a dig against him, Fury Road, or Happy Feet. Just a neat fact.
Fun fact - the silver spray the war boys crave was actually a food colouring spray for cake decorating! There were several upset chefs as supplies ran out!
Absolutely crazy that they did not give Directing to Miller.
Watch some of the behind the scenes for this film, basically all of it is real practical effects.
Must have been insanely fun, and also a complete nightmare, to film.
There is on practical thing shot on film, but also almost every shot is also gone through some cgi, in a way or another. Not to take away from the gruelling production, but it also had a ton of work after.
@@kotkaconforza ... of course
There is actually a book that just came out about the making of this film. It took them over 20 years to enter production, had a horrible time shooting the film and Miller made it into a masterpiece in the editing room.
@@kotkaconforza lol Again, adding CGI does not mean the effects 'are not practical'. You're confused as to what the definiton of 'practical effects' is, it seems.
@@Coleton.B. No. There's a good mixture of almost every trick in the book, but so do many other movies. It misleading that Mad Max: Fury Road have got this legend around it, that it's all in camera, when it is not. Not so much at this comment section, but every time I bring cgi up with this movie, people get real mad. But it feels like when ever a movie does good with the practicals, the "NO CGI"-boys crawl under the woodworks and try to declare some nostalgia-bull crap, about how everything is ruined now because of computers. There is awesome stunt work and driving, awesome production design, editing, post and music, that all ties it all together. Still some people think the only reason it's great is that some people almost died while doing it. Don't forget that there are about 2000 post vfx shot in there. And they created a new way to shoot day for night, thanks to the cgi. Not even bring up the colorist-, or the element replacement work that is expansive.
27:26 "Did they hire Cirque Du Soleil or something?"
That's exactly what they did, yes. haha
This movie is the perfect example of why practical effects just look and feel better.
There is on practical thing shot on film, but also almost every shot is also gone through some cgi, in a way or another.
This film is loaded with CGI.
@@LeviBoldock yes there is CGI. A lot of that is tied to color correction/explosions/etc. But the cars are real (yes even the drum car), people are actually doing the stunts (witness me during the opening chase used wires on the guy, polecats were real, and plenty of the stunts were real and they actually filmed in the desert.
Compare that to Marvel where you hop on a blue screen and rotoscope stuff or have major CGI action sequences and it just doesn’t compare. There is a reason the Winter Solider fight is great, it is hand to hand combat not on a green screen.
Fury Road uses CGI to enhance the action/experience. It is not overly noticeable and most of this film feels like it was filmed practically. Marvel typically uses CGI to facilitate the plot, which is not as cool and lacks the depth.
Fury Road is how visual effects are best used in film. They are best when used to enhance things done practically, not create something fully CG. I can count the number of films on maybe two hands that do full CGI stuff well.
@@WithWizMedia this movie has as many CGI shots as many Marvel movies. It is about how it is used indeed, but saying that it is only stunts or that it only works based on those is false.
Simply having ANY CGI AT ALL does not mean that the movie didn't use practical effects.. When they have real cars flipping or colliding with other cars and they CGI in some flames, you know.. Because the stunt driver doesn't need to literally die for the movie, it doesn't mean the effects 'are not practical'. This entire movie uses MOSTLY practical effects with things like background and depth added later. A lot of that has to do with the fact that the Namibian desert doesn't look like the Australian outback and it's hard to have real flames and explosions while you're trying to film a movie..
I saw this movie in the theater. The second time was at the drive-in. Seeing this movie sitting in a car was perfect
Fury Road is pretty much acknowledged by fans/critics/film historians as one of the greatest action films ever made. It's staggering what this film does visually, but also manages to make you really care for all the protagonists. Glad you enjoyed got to experience it - even though not in a cinema.
I love this film. I love how Max is this mysterious stranger who wanders into people's stories then disappears again, like a mythical hero.
Charlize Theron's character Furiosa is easily my favorite role from her. She's such a badass.
I loved her the most in The Orville but yes the acting is really good here.
Same, named my cat furiosa loved her so much. Also she is missing a limb and sassy. Ahah
🤡🌎
She's so good in this!
Have you seen her in Atomic Blonde? She plays the lead role as a spy near the end of the Cold War. It’s hard for me to decide which character I love more. She’s just really good at playing total badasses.
The most metal movie ever made.
You recognize Max's voice because he was also Bane in Dark Knight Rises, Venom and many other movies.
Fury Road is a master class on how to do an action movie. Practical special effects, powerful and efficient dialog, emotionally and morally strong characters, female characters that are as strong or STRONGER than their male counterparts, redemption arcs. The list goes on and on. This film is on a very short list of what I consider perfect action films.
Don't forget CGI being used correctly, to enhance the storytelling, not as a crutch.
So you obviously haven't seen the original ones. This CGI blob with dime-to-dozen characters has nothing on them.
Having strong/stronger female characters isn't part of the masterclass of making an action film. And it's just silly to say stronger, why would making them stronger matter, like how does that make a believable movie, except to ideological maniacs. Mentally yes, fine. But physically is beyond getting ridiculous in movies these days. Having tiny little waifs beat up fully grown men is just inferiority complexes at work. Women have their own strengths that doesn't need to be measured against men. What I like about this film is they make the Max v Furiosa fight work because Max is hampered by the chains and the other girls. It was clever. If it was just Max v Furiosa without any handicaps, he would destroy her, even if she had 2 arms.
@@themetalpig7613 personally I thought this film was more about the partnership between the strong female characters and the titular strong male character, not a competition. You literally see Max and Furiosa's relationship grow throughout the film. First she sees him as a downright enemy. Then they're forced to work together to survive, until finally by the end their mutual respect is obvious.
This film just shows the pointlessness of having characters(male or female) be strong for strong's sake. People forget that it has to serve the story.
The most beautiful action movie ever in my opinion.
Such visceral filming and editing pushed forward by an awesome score.
Even the calm quiet moments are carried by the sound and visuals.
It's Post Apocalyptic but in a style very much created by this series.
otherwise known as Diesel Punk.
but agree, its been a long time since ive seen it (I saw it in theaters three times) but it's such a masterpiece. I remember a friend i went with complained it was all action no plot, but I find the pacing is so good and the story telling is almost purely visual but there's so much to it.
I definitely agree, probably one of the best movies ever made.
Yes, along with Seven Samurai
A well deserved Oscar nomination for best picture
Masterpiece
And as chaotic and raw as this movie is, the action is completely followable. You never feel lost. You know where everyone is and what they're doing. That's damned impressive cinematography and editing right there.
27:30 that is, in fact, exactly what they did: hire Cirque du soleil
when the big tank wagon explodes and Max swings up on the long pole....BEST action shot in all of film history if you ask me
The idea that Max is a character who we follow but is primarily just someone who wanders into a bigger story and ends up involving himself, usually against his will at first then by the end because he has a heart of gold, is really what the whole series is about. People got up in arms about this movie not being centered on Max enough, even though the first three films (especially the second and third) had already established the status quo. I think Miller has stated he intends Max to be like a folk hero, a lone wanderer type who people tell campfire stories about, so it makes sense that he always ends up wandering into some new adventure then promptly "continues on the path" once it's resolved.
Mad Max - obviously entirely around Max and his family and the early breakdown of society
Road Warrior - Max makes several pretty big decisions to be part of the main plot. Yes there's a larger story he comes into that otherwise he wouldn't be part of, but his decisions really drive the plot.
Thunderdome - I think most people recognize this as the weakest of the films even if it has its moments, but it's still Max making decisions and taking some initiative. He gets his car stolen and tracks it down to Bartertown (that's his initiative). He's got nothing of value but his skills which impresses Aunty to cut a deal to take down Master Blaster. (again, that's initiative, his choices with these situations are moving the plot forward). Max spares Blaster and exposes Aunty's deal to take down Master Blaster. Another choice that, this time, has negative consequences as he's banished and Master is imprisoned. He happens to be rescued by the feral kids and refuses to appease their fantasies, they get mad and some leave for Bartertown, and he goes after them knowing what kind of hell they're about to get caught up in. And, even the very end Max makes the final decision to save the kids with the pilot. ...
This notion that Max has been a kind of side character in these movies is really not true, and one I feel people are making up to defend Fury Road from a very simple criticism that Max, in Fury Road, IS a side character to Furiosa in Fury Road. I don't know anyone who likes the earlier Mad Max films who doesn't like Fury Road, I love it and think it's fantastic storytelling and action and the rest of it... but I don't get 'Mad Max' from it. Very, very little of the movie is pushed by his choices and THAT is why it feels like it should have just been Furiosa's movie, because her decisions were driving practically everything. Max is captured (not a choice, obv), dragged around for a while (not choice) forced to go with these people (almost a choice, but not really) and really doesn't make a true choice that impacts plot until he says, "Let's go back the way we came"... and that's about it, really. Otherwise, he's kind of along for the ride with no choice in the matter. There's nothing inherently wrong with that, plenty of stories involve characters being put on that kind of a rail, but they still are active participants. Think of a movie like Snowpiercer... it's a train... they can't get off of it... a literal rail whereby the characters HAVE to progress through the train with no other option, yet the characters are still making choices as they go which drives the plot. Fury Road... those choices simply aren't being made by Max, which is offputting when it's called MAD MAX: FURY ROAD and not just FURY ROAD or FURIOSA or whatever.
@@MST3Killa Well, I never argued he was a side character. He's not here, either--one does not need to drive the plot forward to be a central character, as we see the events primarily through his involvement in it.
@@courtneyvaldez7903 And that was the problem people had with the film. If it's Mad Max, then his decisions and actions/reactions should be well folded into the plot. If Max is so irrelevant to the story and plot then one can reasonably wonder why Max is in this at all and why it's not simply called Furiosa or Fury Road, and thusly speculate it was to jump on an established franchise to give it a floor at the box office.
One of the "tricks" the director did was to put the focus of every shot in the exact center of the screen. Other stuff was happening, but if you watched it through a tube, you'd still get the important parts. This keeps your eyes riveted in one spot which ups the intensity because you can't afford to wander around the scenes.
It also allows the film to remain understandable while bombarding you with more images than normal. Most of the film is overcranked cutting down the usual amount of frames per second so instead of naturally smooth it's a little choppy like you're on speed because you're seeing things too fast.
There's a physical pain that goes along with everyone hating Michael Bay's descent into pure trash with Transformers. People's eyes are literally muscle-fatigued by his editing. It's "everything everywhere all at once" but NOT in the good way. Your eye tries to chase what's important in Transformers but it has no continuity so you're frustrated, it's just becoming noise, and you're being focus drained like a blood bag.
Splendid was in Transformers. She's unforgettable in THIS film... A worthy director versus ad piece of sht. Goes to show.
Of course, for the "background" on this film, you need to watch "Mad Max", "The Road Warrior", and "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome" from way back in the day.
That moment when Charlize Therons Furiosa gets stabbed and then looks at Max and they both think the same "we might not make this..." ... both their non-vocal acting is soooo damn good, ESPECIALLY Theron... that whole moment will NEVER NOT give me massive chills
It's so true, not only that but the crescendo in the score is impeccable mixed with Furiosa's scream. This movie just GET'S good pacing and visual effect.
The style you're searching for is Post Apocalyptic Dieselpunk. It's sort of niche but it's pretty great when pulled off well.
Or just Mad Max style; Miller pretty much created it on his own, other examples came after Mad Max, especially after Mad Max 2 / Road Warrior.
Oh I thought it was cyberpunk. But perhaps that's using the term too broadly. Like just labeling 60% of music as 'umm..that's rock.' yeah...technically sorta
@@explodingplant2 Cyberpunk is stuff like Blade Runner and Neuromancer, future dystopias where the world is run by corporations, life is cheap, the environment is ruined, and high technology is mixed with low humanity. Cyberpunk settings are usually not post-apocalyptic per se, society is usually in the middle of a long decline.
The style is sometimes called Diesel Punk I think.
I think she was looking for Post Apocalyptic. Diesel Punk has more of a clean art-deco look fusing the designs of industrial machinery from the end of WWI to the early 1950's with futuristic fantasy. Fury Road has several Diesel punk influences. Better living through big machines and grease.
@@timmooney7528 This is post apocalyptoc dieselpunk. It's a fusion of both
@@LordVader1094 fair enough. It works. The Mad Max franchise inspired a bunch of movies about villains who expend large amounts or scarce resources in order to steal from those who have very few.
On the “This concept has a name,” question. You might be looking for the term ‘post-apocalyptic.’
or Diesel Punk
I cannot stress enough how much Charlize Theron deserved to be nominated for an Oscar in this!
In the cinema... this was indescribable. I have never had this much raw fun. Felt like Max was filling me up with his crazy feral blood too. And for as wild and crazy as this movie is, it is a masterclass in filmmaking and directing technique. Anyone who wants to make movies should be studying how this was shot and edited. There is very little dialog as well, leaving so much of the storytelling to be visual which just supports the entire empty bleak world.
"Oooh, I do the jumpy jumpy" is the best description of stunt choreography I've ever heard.
The genre of this film is post-apocalyptic, which I think was the term you were searching for.
The Mel Gibson Mad Max movies from the 80s are really good as well, especially the second one. The same man directed all of them, and you can see how he evolved his technique over the years. Love your channel!
More like post apocalyptic punk imo
@@L_H_Bruh Those genre differences of Post Apocalyptic is a pretty niche thing. Unlikely that's exactly what she was speaking about, (likely something like Steampunk or whatever) but generally speaking, this is pretty standard Post Apoc. It's post nuke war... desert... general insanity of people without resources. Not much 'punk' to it.
"Imagine seeing this in the cinema". Si seulement tu savais. J'y repense encore souvent.
The documentary on the BluRay is pretty amazing. It’s amazing how little cgi is used in the film.
The Road Warrior (same director and character) is also great.
The cool of the Mad Max movies is that, Max is our guide in this world, not the center of the story, regardless of being the protagonist... You would enjoy the original three.
It was so funny to hear the fragile toxic-masculinity brigade whining at the time of release about how Furiosa got the most screen-time, instead of Max. It was like, "Have you *seen* a Mad Max film?".
@@michaelccozens Plus it ignores how badass he is in the movie. Like the entire Bullet Farmer sequence.
This movie is an absolute masterclass in visual storytelling. It tells a compelling (albeit simple) story, with deep and interesting characters, with very little dialog. Everything you need to know is right there on screen, and it rewards you for paying attention to the little things. That's what always blows me away about this movie: attention to detail.
I could gush about how good this movie is for hours. I think it's basically a perfect movie. Everyone has their own tastes, and no movie is universally beloved, but I defy anyone to find a movie that executes its vision as well as Mad Max: Fury Road does.
I saw this in the cinema, and it was utterly insane from start to finish. An overwhelming experience.
People clapped after the storm scene haha! Amazing theater experience
@@gabrielguerin3926 the redemption arc of Nux's character had people in tears!
One of the best Action movies of the last years. And so much trivia around it:
1. The Director, George Miller, made the first one from money he earned as a doctor (in the ER I think).
2. It was the role that made Mel Gibson famous
3. Fury Road works without having seen any othe the three movies before but has a few nods to them. It helps to know that his wife and daughter died in the first one, though. It's the girl he keeps seeing.
4. The music was composed by dutch musician Tom Holkenborg aka Junkie XL.
5. The movie did not have much of a written script but it was an entire room full of storyboards because it is such a visual movie
6. George Miller directed "Babe: A Pig in the Big City" and "Happy Feet" before that.
7. Tom Hardy said he had no problems with heights when they filmed the parts with the long sticks on the war rigs. He lied. George Miller only found out after the shoot.
8. Most scenes and stunts are practical with real cars and trucks. CG is mostly used to enhance but overall most of what you see in this movie is real.
9. The actor who plays Immortan Joe also played one of the main antagonists in the first Mad Max
10 Those guys on the long sticks are from Cirque de Soleil
The Style of the world is "Post Apocalyptic" BTW ^^
Sorry for correcting you but I am sure that the little girl from his flashbkacs is actually Glory, the daughter of Hoper. They both died in the 2015 video game Mad Max that is a sort of prequel tu Fury Road.
If I could, I would forget this film just to be able to re-live watching it again for the first time. The buildup to exhilaration of that first War Rig chase with the Spiky Cars was like nothing else I've felt in the theatre before or since!
That moment in the second chase with the grenade to the front of the rig, and Furiosa puts the plow down to put out the fire!!!! The music!!!!
Yeahhhhh, one of my absolute favourite films 😄 This was my best experience in a cinema. That incredible sandstorm scene was just unreal on the big screen.
Best statement from Mary "I think the movie is about car racing..." You're in for a surprise. Great review and this film was edited by Margaret Sixel. 1st time she edited an action movie. Thanks for sharing Mary.
One of the greatest action movies ever and also manages to be a beautiful film. The moment where Max tells Furiosa his name is him reclaiming his humanity. That's why he's so emotional. Please watch Mad Max and The Road Warrior as well. TRW has often been cited as the best action film ever and has been a massive influence on film, music and television since its release largely for it's apocalyptic art style and the editing style used to depict the action sequences.
I usually dont like action movies. This one is a masterpiece tho. Completely unpologetic, non stop
If I were a young woman trying to survive in a post apocalyptic world filled with violent men I'd keep that chastity belt on until I was good a settled somewhere safe.
Totally understand where you're coming from but i think it's reasonable they wanna get rid of the symbolisms it carries. That they are/were breeding toys and couldn't decide whom they slept with. These disgusting creeps had the keys to it and thus control over their body. So from a mental aspect i understand they yeeted that shit into the dunes but from a safety standpoint... Yep, I'd kept my coochie with fangs too.
Might even be a good idea even if you're a guy.😆
Usually chastity belts aren't voluntary so you'd want to take it off at the earliest opportunity or you might not get another chance.
You need to see the 3 earlier movies so it all makes sense
I mean... they explain everything you need to know in this movie. You'll get some more context, like with his family, but it works perfectly fine as a stand alone.
They're pretty much all standalone films
Dearest Mary, please consider, as long as you’re jumping in to movies you know nothing about, ‘Friday Night Lights,’ the film.
Greatest Action Film of The Century
It proves why shooting things practically can have a massive impact on immersion
@Mary #Mary -- Lots of folks ask, "Why didn't Max stay?" ... Because that's what a hero does. If they didn't move on, they wouldn't be there for someone else. There will always be lots of people who need a hero. But heroes are in short supply.
They also released this film in Black and White. It adds another level somehow - the razor sharp contrast, and overall feel. It's called Fury Road: Black & Chrome edition. Playing I think off the chrome spray paint they huff before and during battle.
Oh thank you for that sponge Bob edit I didn't know I needed... Perfection.
Please watch Warrior 2011! Tom Hardy is amazing (as always) and that movie is one of his most underrated performances, it’s on Netflix right now.
The guy hissing at Furiosa at the end is none other than Martial Arts Action Movie legend RICHARD NORTON
I wish I could forget I've seen this movie and watch it again for the first time.
12:28 "We have a word for it in Dutch, not like 'loser', but like more in a sad way and not in a 'hate on him' way."
Pitiful wretch?
knokkelkop?
29:24 -- Sacrifice for the right reason.... Is the ultimate form of redemption.. Nux finally knew what it was to be loved and cared about..
Please, definitely catch the originals.
I saw this at the big screen twice and the first time I walked out saying 'This was the greatest action movie I've ever seen'. The second time, the friend I brought with turned to me during the movie and said the same thing. :D
You have never heard of Mad Max?!? This is the 4th installment of a franchise of films. The first 3 made Mel Gibson famous! The first, Mad Max, tells the tale of Officer Max Rockatansky, an Australian highway patrol officer as the world begins running out of resources. The Road Warrior (aka Mad Max 2) and Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome tell his further tales after Australia suffers the effects of WWIII happening in the Northern Hemisphere.
One of the best action films ever made. Raiders, Die Hard, The Matrix, Fury Road (special mention for T2)
The Warboys shouting "V8! V8! V8! V8! V8! V8!" is so cool.
So glad you liked this. The first time I saw this, it just blew me away. Love your reaction. Stay well.
I saw this movie in theaters and it was one of the best cinematic experiences I've ever had. This movie was easily the best action movie from the past decade and set a new standard going forward. It was so refreshing to see something like this. To this day I have a hard time believing that this movie actually exists.
Every time I watch a new action movie, I always jokingly say to my dad "well, it's no Mad Max Fury Road!"
He might sound familiar because he played bane in batman. very talented actor.
Mary, regarding your question at 15:26, yes, it's for real. If you've never watched any Monster Truck content, I would recommend it. It's absurd, but also a LOT of fun. You can find some by searching for "Monster Jam" on youtube. Along the same lines, I would also recommend looking for some "rock bouncer" videos on youtube. Rock Bouncers are absurd in a similar way, and are basically drag racing up a steep hill covered in rocks, trees, etc some of which involves going fast enough to launch the vehicle up a sheer rock face to get further up the hill.
The director, George Miller, also made Happy Feet, in case you're still looking for a "sweet movie" after this :D
7:00 the word you are looking for is probably “dieselpunk”, post apocaliptic dieselpunk. Maybe? Also, yes they exactly hired Cirque du Soleil for the pole guys.
I woke up one Saturday and my roommate asked if I wanted to go see this. He said he had heard it was good. I was like, "Ehhhh...OK, I guess."
Then my brain was vaporized...this movie is excellent.
Only the first Mad Max movie is really about Max himself. The first movie is essentially his backstory, while the second, third, and fourth (this one) is essentially the legend of "Mad Max", the wandering feral stranger who is slowly learning to overcome his grief by helping other people, one at a time. The interesting thing about the franchise is that, all the movies except the first one are storytellers telling the story of Max (in Fury Road, the only hint of there being a storyteller was the text at the end). So you can see the first Mad Max as a raw and unfiltered view from Max's own perspective, while the other movies are stories passed down of people's experience of meeting this mysterious "Max".
I love this movie, find the extra features, the story of hos this movie was made is literally amazing. Ive watched a half dozen reactions to this, yours was the best. WITNESS MEEEEEEEEE
Where's the GOT Night king when you need his Ice power to counter a planet-level sand storm.
I think how T2 Judgement day was THE action movie of the 90s, I think this movie encapsulates the 2010s best action movie.
Liked how from the beginning you had Nux pegged as an underachiever.
You are right: it was a crazy and beautiful cinema experience.
Gotta say, this may be the most genuine “reaction” video i have seen on youtube in a while, cheers!
I saw this in the theater on the WB lot and that sound system almost rattled the teeth out of my head lol
Recommending Spirited Away - A very fun animated film that wowed western audiences, is highly rated (currently rated #31 on imdb) and a great introduction into the power house that is Studio Ghibli.
I have that one on Patreon! :) sadly studio Ghibli is impossible to share on RUclips because they copyright strike almost all of them :(
@@MovieswithMary Sorry to hear that! Copyright law has always been a mess, but it's been decades since it was hijacked by content hoarders like Disney, and now it's also patently (lol) unfit-for-purpose in the remix/reaction age.
It needs a re-write from top-to-bottom, to make it both functional in the modern context and to bring it back to its "public interest" raison d'etre.
BTW, I think the term you might have been looking for to describe Nux's character would be a "patsy" (a gullible/naive character involved in evil-doing but without bearing much personal responsibility for it)/"sad sack" (an earnest character who tries hard but never quite manages to get it right, often due to bad luck. A character the universe really seems to have it out for).
Thanks for another great reaction! Love that you saw this with no prep. Not that you can be truly prepared for it, but going in with zero knowledge of what Miller's about to hit you with is amazing.
The actor that played Immortan Joe, is the same one who played the villain in the very first Mad Max movie. (1979)
There are a couple of John Carpenter movies that would make good reactions. Both 'Escape from New York' and 'Big Trouble in Little China' are fun, over-the-top action movies. 'Starman' is great, too! Another really fun comedy/action movie is 'Midnight Run', with Robert DeNiro.
The term you are looking for is ..
"steam punk".You should now watch the three original movies, Max has an epic character arch.
Loved the reaction..
Oh what a lovely day!
"Dieselpunk" is probably the name of the art-style you're thinking of.
Fury Road isn't 100% that, but it borrowed a lot.
5:56 Mary is ready to ROCK! Let's fcking GO! 🤘
7:07 I think the word you're looking for is "scrappunk". It's a type of distopic fiction where all the technology is reduced to rusty scraps.
This movie stands well on its own, without the benefit of having seen any of the other movies, but a lot of your questions about Max are answered in the earlier films. Mad Max provides context for who he is and why he is the way he is, as well as what the world was like immediately before the collapse. The Road Warrior (Mad Max II internationally) provides context for who he became, post apocalypse and the world we see in Fury Road. In my opinion, you can take or leave Beyond Thunderdome, as It adds nothing to the franchise, but I’d recommend the other two.
Oh yeah. Beyond Thunderdome - what an odd one in the series. George Miller lost his friend and producer Byron Kennedy before starting production but decided to still pick it up and finish it with another producer, George Oglivie. The film feels different. Not so much the first half and the finale. But somewhere along the line it suddeny turns into Peter Pan in Mad Max land and it's a reailly weird feeling.
Still has some memorable scenes but overall it's by far the weakest in the series.
My favorite fun fact from the movie is that Tina Turner wasn't able to drive stickshift but only automatic so they had to rebuild her car for the last few scenes in which she can be seen driving. :D
Yay another Mary reaction
Mad Max: Road Warrior with Mel Gibson from 1981 is great too, a similar themed film that Fury Road is basically a re-make of, updated with a modern era super budget.
It's not a remake
Max was only the main character in the first film. Every film after that he's like a nameless drifter who wanders upon and gets involved in other people's problems.
Beautiful story and stunning cinematograohy. Thanks for the fun moments during this snow filled afternoon.
I love the tenderness Capable shows Nux when she finds him at the back of the War Rig
I think I ended up seeing this 4 times at the theatre. I always hated the 3D gimmick they had going a decade ago but this one was different. The visuals, the sound, it was so in your face. Couldn’t get enough.
As for Max feeling like a side character in his own film, most of the other ones are like that too. Max is a vehicle for the viewer to experience the world and the stories of the people in it. Car pun intended. For the people in this world, Max is a legendary folk hero type who’s known for helping the downtrodden.
I don't have to imagine watching this in the cinema, I had watched this there!
Fact: Geroge Miller almost made Justice League movie (the scripts online) and Hugh Keyes Bryne, who played Immortan Joe, would've been the Martian Manhunter, and the girl at 21:36 Megan Gale, would've been Wonder Woman.
Movie Recommendations to plop on your list.
1: Event Horizon
2: The Burbs
3: Prometheus
4: The Fifth Element
5: Serenity( But only if you’ve finished the Firefly series)
"oooo I do a jumpy jumpy." Lol, love your comments.
The old mad max movies are great too
Glad you are reacting to this movie, Tom hardy is a great actor
He didn't stay because Mad Max is a road warrior, helps out where he can and goes on his way, or he dies trying.
@27:27 As a matter of fact, yes, they did hire Cirque du Soleil.
"What a day what a lovely day" it always is when somebody watches Mad Max for the first time or any other classic for that matter 👌👍
