Review of Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) by Brendan C — 24 Oct 2017
This film has no ascertainable plot and is merely an acrobatic car chase. The film does not follow the rules of the Mad Mad Universe in which it exists; the primary rule being scarce resources must treated as scarce resources.
They waste water, they destroy all their vehicles, the use inordinate amounts of fuel... even driving a stage featuring an electric guitar with a massive flame throwing tower amplification system to every battle.
.., they loose track of their only non-mutant women, they waste bullets, and despite existing in a post apocalyptic world all their vehicles are some how souped up and pimped out. The actions of the characters just don't make sense when considering the ground rules which the series has created.
A science fiction movie can make up any rules it wants, but then it must follow those rules. The film has good acting and cinematography, but does it really matter?
