Haunted by his turbulent past, Mad Max (Tom Hardy) believes the best way to survive is to wander alone. Mad Max: Fury Road Trailer 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. Aptly described by director Miller himself as 'a western on wheels', Fury Road is a film of visionary grandeur which merits multiple viewing. Mad Max: Fury Road From director George Miller, originator of the post-apocalyptic genre and mastermind behind the legendary Mad Max franchise, comes Mad Max: Fury Road, a return to the world of the Road Warrior, Max Rockatansky. Mad Max: Fury Road is a beautifully strange, violent and thrilling cinematic composition that proves George Miller is a more brilliant maestro than ever. Meanwhile, the loner anti-hero (Hardy) gets reluctantly involved in a take-no-prisoners war between a skull-masked despot (Hugh Keays-Byrne) and a one-armed woman warrior (Theron) attempting to escape to freedom with a bevy of enslaved young maidens. Under the circumstances, society has descended into chaos and mankind is reduced to a single instinct: survival.

As in the first three chapters of the series, there isn't much of a storyline.Īt most, the reboot revolves around the water shortage plaguing the populace of a dystopian hell-hole. After an unprecedented hiatus of 30 years, Australian auteur George Miller re-visits the post-apocalyptic wasteland of the seminal trilogy which established his reputation and propelled Mel Gibson to superstardom.
