Wow, now i didn't like the movie?

Because I watched the originals back in the day (I also bought the recent Bluray versions), I went out of my way to see this version.  Clearly, the production values on Fury Road were a cut above all the previous films, along with most of the acting.  I was mildly dissapointed that the story was really just a rehash of Road Warrior.  If you take the movie by itself, it was probably a 7/8 out of 10.  Having been a fan of the originals and havingg watched them recently before seeing Fury Road, it ended up being mor like a 6.  Like I said in the comment that you responded to, this is MY opinion.

At the moment it's one of my frontrunners for best picture, director, editing film and sound, vfx, Charlize theron deserves at lets a nomination, make up and costume, and cinematography. From a film making standpoint alone this film is astonishing.

I can tell you don't watch many movies. Outside of car chases, this film has almost nothing in common with fast and furious. But everyone has there own opinions I guess.

Fury Road is one of the best blockbusters I have seen in my life, it´s a masterpiece of action movies, really awesome.

Mad Max and Inside Out should be nominated this year.

I believe it's billed as a reboot, but not at all a remake.

Mad Max: Fury Road was not edited particularly well. She relied on using black out transitions far too heavily and would always cut from action to downtime abruptly, sometimes to good effect, but I found it to break the flow more often than not.

I thought Mad Max was a great film and definitely deserves recognition from the Oscar committee, but out of all the films I've seen this year, I thought that Inside Out was the best one out there.

I was honestly bored by Inside Out. I love Pixar films, but the best part of that film for me was the volcano short that preceded it. I absolutely fell in love with Fury Road, on the other hand.

I watched all three original Mad Max movies for the first time the week prior. I loved the first one, felt bored with The Road Warrior, and then loved Thunderdome until the children were introduced. Fury Road felt like they found the perfect formula for the series and then jacked it up with steroid injections, making it an absolutely mesmerizing theatrical experience. The thrill of the chase lasted the entire film, the characters were absolutely perfect for the chaotic world they lived in, and the cinematography was just amazing.

I had the pleasure of seeing it in DBox, and it was by far the best DBox implementation I have ever experienced - the fine detail they put into the motion seats was astounding, from the big movements when the cars were racing on screen to the gentle hum of the motor during the dialogue heavy moments. Whomever programmed that movie for DBox made it their mission to deliver the best possible experience they could, and they definitely delivered.

Absolutely perfect movie, in my opinion.

Fair enough. The true stars of the movie are Miller, Seale, and Gibson. But I think Sixel did good work - not just in editing but in compositing. Reducing 470 hours of footage into a 120 minute movie that makes perfect visual sense is no easy task - especially with a director as thorough and particular as Miller.

Yeah, as someone who was also raised on MM1 and Road Warrior, I more or less agree with you - production values are great, lot of stuff in chases were really fun and I actually liked guitarist and thought it was quite good throwback to 80s...but on the other hand, I thought story was really crappy, Tom Hardy is piss poor compared to Mel Gibson and whole Max as support character is slap to the face for fans of original trilogy.

Still, it was a lot less crappier than I thought it would be, considering it's Hollywood blockbuster, and, more or less, everything that Hollywod touches in last few decades turns to shit.
