"You will go see this 10 times, and notice shit that you didn't fucking notice the first time" I can confirm this, to the letter. I've long since lost count of how many times I've seen this movie, but it's somewhere in the upper 20s (no YOU have a problem), and I swear to god, with EVERY SINGLE VIEWING, I pick up on some little detail I didn't notice before.
It's an absolute must-see for people who like movies. I don't hesitate to call it this generation's RoboCop; it elevated gratuitous cinematic violence and car chases to an art form.
What I loved was how even in a movie as shouty and explodey as this there were so many wordless scenes where everything played out through either shot framing or body language. For example, when the women are heading out across the salt flats on their bikes and Max is standing there between the bike they loaded up for him and the tanker truck. Oh, look, it's a visual representation of the choice he has to make. Not terribly subtle, but beyond most action movies. The other part I loved is when Nux tells Hottie McRedhead (Capable) to jump into Joe's car so he can wedge the throttle on the tanker open and follow after. There's none of that "No, I'm staying with you!" bullshit. Just a half second of hesitance and a resigned look that says "I know what you're actually doing, fucker, and I'd kick you in the balls if I weren't busy right now." Brilliant fucking movie.
I think it's interesting that Brian mentioned Circ du Solie (no idea if thats spelt right at all) because the Pole Cats (the guys on the big pendulum sticks) are actually Circ du Solie acrobats. George Miller brought them onto this project specifically to be the Pole Cats
When I did my music review on fury road on my channel, I agree with you fellas' fury road is the bestttttttttt action movie of the last 15 years hands downnnnnnnnnn..I still have the first 3 mad max movies.. AND YOU SHALL BE SHINY AND CHROME.. LOL..LUVED IT..
what's even crazier is that his 70something year old wife edited the movie.. again; a 70+ year old lady put together the best action film in recent years.
Movie of the year. George Miller is amazing. he can do movies like Babe and Happy feet and also an awesome rated R bad ass Action movie like Fury Road. He is producing Justice League movie but wish he was directing it instead of Snyder.
***** `suicide squad was so horribly put together that im not sure it has 3 acts... but yeah, i hope that it is as decent, or better than man of steel, something that is at least semi competent, but considering that the same studio that gave us batman bin suparman and i want to die squad, i have no faith, i have no trust and i have no hope
Only saw it in 2D, but I still liked it. I think the only people who wont like it are these who just dislike movie violence, people not used to the somewhat of old school pacing, and these who heared it had some feminist overtones and thus hate it on pricipal already, before actually seeing it. Oh yes and like said in this review, it's nothing for people who hate sand.
+Kaefer1973 Even for old school pacing, this movie felt paced VERY nicely. Like, I do see the similarity between this one's pacing and the original movies. It was nice.
The blue-and-orange palette of this movie bugged me a little, but unlike (say) the Transformers movies, it seemed to serve an actual purpose. First, it threw other colors (the green of the Citadel, the white of the wives' clothes) into sharper relief, and drew the audience's attention to those things without having to belabor their importance in the dialogue. Second, the orange of the desert, the various fires, and most of the characters' faces (except Nux) emphasized how humanity had regressed and was on the verge of collapsing and reuniting with nature (and not in a nice poetic way).
I think the Marvel color pallet is a little more limited just because they're mot trying to make it difficult to believe that everything's in the same world when you jump from one movie to another, especially when Thor and Iron Man need to be in the same movie when one could be metal and industrial and the other a glowing god with perpetually blowing crimson cape. It's interesting that Spider-man Homecoming's seems to be adjacent enough that it can do whatever it damn well places.
there's a reason tho this movie took so long to make that miller thought about making it a spin off comic about furiosa (there's some concept art for that somewhere in the internet )
i was expecting them to slate this movie, can't believe they liked it. characters were poor with almost no back story and the plot was totally vacuous, i got bored of the action after about half way through, it felt about an hour too long. not a patch on the first two...
+MrPineappleHero It's the best movie I have ever seen. Beautiful rich world, great character motivations, best cinematography you'll see, and great actors
Moonawrathic what was beautiful about the world, it was an empty desert, it wasn't supposed to be beautiful so i think you missed the point there. what character motivations, the character back stories were almost non existent, no reason to care about any of the characters. mad max starts off not giving a shit about the girls, he's happy to drive off and leave them behind to get slaughtered, 1 day later and suddenly he's prepared to sacrifice himself just to save him, what the heck changed in such a short space of time? the characters grow bonds and relationships with each other in the space of about 1 day, very difficult to take that seriously, and how the hell did those handful of people in a lone truck take out that army of bad guys, it was one truck versus about 50...
+Mike M it was good because it was a perfectly crafted action movie made by a pioneer of the genre its like scorrcesse doing a gangster flick again and nailing it
This is the kind of movie Michael Bay would make if Michael Bay knew how to do his job.
yup
The woman in this movie actually do something
That’s what I said in my letterboxd review for this
Doof Warrior aka Guitar Guy was fucking amazing.
+Jirekianu The whole Doof Wagon was awesome.
"You will go see this 10 times, and notice shit that you didn't fucking notice the first time"
I can confirm this, to the letter.

Haven’t seen this or any Mad Max movies 😐
This review had me sold on "Guitar Guy" and I saw the movie the following Monday. It made my life Shiny & Chrome!
This was the greatest movie to come out of the last 10 years!!!!
This movie is an absolute must-see for action flicks. I'm so fucking happy this is getting two more sequels.
+Dizzy Doom I thought that Hardy had signed on for 3 sequels?
HardenFilm I think so, but I think Miller said if the money didn't come in, he wouldn't be able to.
+Dizzy Doom I almost don't want sequels. This film said everything so what is left to say?
+dzhellek emphasis on almost.

Brilliant fucking movie.
Such an amazing movie! One of my favorite movies of the year so far.
brad: "masterpiece"
the guy in the back: "greatest movie I've ever seen"
guy in passenger seat (deadpan): "...it's a good movie"
Dave is the guy in the back, and Brian is the guy in the passenger seat.
"That... thing in there.... that's not The Goose"
It was nice to watch a movie...were reflecting afterwards ...you think you might just have seen a masterpiece of cinema...
I did see it twice in the theater (with different friends) it was definitely on the best action movies in a long time
I think it's interesting that Brian mentioned Circ du Solie (no idea if thats spelt right at all) because the Pole Cats (the guys on the big pendulum sticks) are actually Circ du Solie acrobats. George Miller brought them onto this project specifically to be the Pole Cats
Not only that, but Brad mentioned the Olympics at one point, and there were Olympic athletes in the movie too
Cirque du soleil

AND YOU SHALL BE SHINY AND CHROME.. LOL..LUVED IT..
Vin Deisel is a total gamer geek, and the last witch hunter is a passion project for him
Fury Road is so fucking awesome 👍
it's sad when a guy who could be my grandfather makes more violent movies then. Everyone else right now
what's even crazier is that his 70something year old wife edited the movie.. again; a 70+ year old lady put together the best action film in recent years.
+Spock Kirk Ha you don't even know about Scorsese, either.

hey, im from the future, suicide squad was a fucking disaster... and wonder woman might fall apart from what ive heard from the production
***** `suicide squad was so horribly put together that im not sure it has 3 acts... but yeah, i hope that it is as decent, or better than man of steel, something that is at least semi competent, but considering that the same studio that gave us batman bin suparman and i want to die squad, i have no faith, i have no trust and i have no hope
***** i have hope when a movie is in the hands of a competent team and a competent studio
👀 I’m from the farther future, Wonder Woman was great and there’s a new Suicide Squad that’s great too. 👀

+CarnbytheGreat Sure it was an atmosphere movie, I gues for people limiting themselves to dialougue movies it's also only a so-so movie.
Ooh, deathmatch between Coma and Jeff from Rock: It's Your Decision.
my movie of 2015. even after watching another really good movie like Secret In their Eyes.
dag was one of the brides lmao

I'm watching way too many of these.
Love how they didn’t mention that the blonde that fell out of the tankers trunk was also the blonde from transformers 3 the movie they hate the most
0:35 DO NOT BRING THAT EVIL HERE.
Can anybody help me?
RUclips is not playing any video.
I have an IPhone 4s and I have no idea what's wrong.
can someone help me?
Yea get a new phone 5 years later
Brad sometimes has this annoying habit of putting his hand in front of his mouth when he speaks.
That's so he can dub over it
I'll say this though, too much Furiousa, not enough Mad Max
+Nightshift10000 I didn't have a problem with that :)
If you watch the originals you'll find Mad Max hardly speaks in those either. In Road he has like 16 lines. Besides, Furiosa was awesome.
there's a reason tho
this movie took so long to make that miller thought about making it a spin off comic about furiosa (there's some concept art for that somewhere in the internet )
Max is a boring character anyway so who gives a shit?
i was expecting them to slate this movie, can't believe they liked it. characters were poor with almost no back story and the plot was totally vacuous, i got bored of the action after about half way through, it felt about an hour too long. not a patch on the first two...

Fury Road is overrated in comparison to Mad Max or The Road Warrior.
These guys hate everything but love this terrible movie... what a joke
I just don't understand why it's so popular. I guess I like more old school stuff like mafia movies and dramas
+Mike M it was good because it was a perfectly crafted action movie made by a pioneer of the genre its like scorrcesse doing a gangster flick again and nailing it
***** You going to make me, little boy?
Wrong place, bud.
