The movie also features some surprisingly good performances. You want to believe the fiction because of the quality of the production. This is only really possible because the action, filmography, set choices and music are so brilliant you cannot help but believe the insanity that plays out before you. The movie keeps a relentless action pace that makes all of the absurdity seem so completely ordinary, which might be the real magic of this movie. Miller created a fantasy world where men playing flame throwing guitars and leaping through high speed chases on pull-vaults seems like a typical milk run. What is perhaps the most enthralling part of the film is the absolutely absurd story and world building. The action sequences are mesmerizing and the work of a true master craftsman in action. The film is a gripping full adrenaline race across the desert of a post-apocalyptic future. Even though this franchise hasn't had a new entry in more than a generation, it's likely that strong buzz will attract all kinds of teen moviegoers.George Miller elevates action and violence to a true art form in this remake of a classic. Drinking, drugs, and smoking aren't issues. No strong language is clearly heard, but much of the dialogue is obscured by the thundering sound effects. One woman is naked, but viewers only see her behind. Several imprisoned women are attached to machines that pump their breast milk, and some of the female characters (some of whom are played by supermodels) are treated as sexual objects, shown wearing skimpy clothing while washing. It's extremely violent, with nonstop chase scenes, explosions, deaths, blood, shooting, and stabbing, as well as violence against women (including a bloody scene involving a pregnant woman), nightmarish flashbacks, diseased flesh, and other disturbing imagery. Parents need to know that Mad Max: Fury Road - the fourth film in the Mad Max series and the first in decades - is a reboot of sorts, with Tom Hardy taking over for Mel Gibson in the title role.
