Mad Max: Fury Road

Directed by George Miller2h 1m2015

An apocalyptic story set in the furthest reaches of our planet, in a stark desert landscape where humanity is broken, and most everyone is crazed fighting for the necessities of life. Within this world exist two rebels on the run who just might be able to restore order.

Our read: Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) reads as a sombre, breathless, inventive action · sci-fi entry — extreme in intensity, epic-stakes in scope, measured in temperature, ambivalent in outlook.
