Filmmaker George Miller’s fourth post-apocalypse movie is set thirty years after Thunderdome. The reluctant Max (Tom Hardy), haunted by the death of his wife and daughter (as told in the 1979 movie), joins forces with Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron) to defy a warlord (Hugh Keays-Byrne) by stealing his five wives: Splendid (Rosie Huntington-Whiteley), Toast (Zoe Kravitz), Capable (Riley Keough), The Dag (Abbey Lee), and Fragile (Courtney Eaton) and “war boy” Nux (Nicholas Hoult)

Fury Road combines the pyrotechnics of a Michael Bay extravaganza with the physics-defying razzle dazzle of a Fast and Furious outing. The post-apocalyptic setting is the test tube in which adrenaline and testosterone combine into an explosive cocktail. However, despite all the action, excitement, and mayhem, the characters come across as well defined.” –James Berardinelli -ReelViews

“After a long absence, Mad Max is back and in fine form.” -Todd McCarthy  -The Hollywood Reporter
