The way the action is shot and constructed puts 99% of films of past twenty years to shame. Fury Road should be shown to all action film directors as a case study. Too often these days we have shoddily constructed rapid edited shakey cam garbage to disguise the fact the actor cannot do action or that it isn't that visually interesting or exciting. Maybe people didn't into the characters and story, but in terms of filming action set pieces Fury Road stands with the elite and makes so many other action films seem pedestrian. |
Fury Road is amongst the best action films since the 2000's IMO. Its just high quality in almost every aspect. You'd think cinematography and art direction shouldn't matter in an action film until you watch Fury Road. Its just mind blowing for me. Sure, the screenplay and writing is shallow, but then again, its an action film. You are there for the spectacle of it, not to bring up existential issues.
