Review of Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) by Norman D — 09 May 2017
I just can't believe that in the wide world of critics, this loud raucous and largely plotless film got 98%. Where are the critics who after the first hour or so of loud engines and bloodlust aren't gonna say, "Hey, wait a minute, what is this all for? The first of this franchise that saw was "the Road Warrior" and while it had its own share of blood n' roar, did have a relatively interesting storyline as well as the comic relief from the gyro pilot and the feral kid.
This was just one grim deafening scene after another with some very poorly thought out "twists" such as (spoiler alert) the otherwise savvy Furiosa not having even the smarts of the not-so-genius Max in being able to figure out that driving for 160 days (with what fuel?) across a salt pan was not exactly a great plan.
Hey, and given that even at a very low daily mileage of saw a couple of 100, that would have taken them 32,000 miles. Anybody ever heard of seas or that the earth has a circumference at its thickest point is less than that? Duh, seems to be a good one word summary for this noisy nonsense film.
