To pre-empt this review, I saw the movie in 3-D IMAX.
Tom Hardy takes up the mantle of Max Rockatansky, a man silenced by his madness and solitude. He meets Imperatore Furiosa (Charlize Theron) and a group of women, played by Zoe Kravitz, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Abbey Lee, Riley Keogh and Courtney Eaton. They are joined by War Boy Nux, portrayed by Nicholas Hoult.
This movie is great. The performances all around had a great understanding of their characters. Max is the lens through which the audience sees the world. A man who is unwillingly thrust into helping Furiosa and the women. This is the Max from the previous movies. Quiet, with a tough exterior and a softened interior.
Charlize Theron is the stand out character in this movie. Her character holds the primary protagonist role alongside Max. Her story is the one that drives the movie. The impressive thing about this movie is that she could match Max in any way. Max and Furiosa compliment each other well, one compensating for the others flaws. This helps make the film great.
Nux is the character who evolves the most in the movie. His transformation serves as a nice way of demonstrating the change in one of the movie.
Regarding the group of women, they all have their role to fill, and evolve over the course of the movie. Zoe Kravitz and Rosie Huntington-Whitely stand out regarding their performances.
Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne) is a hulking, almost god like villain who has a silent power over all characters. It is incredible how menacing the character can appear, given his lack of dialogue. His power and reputation was built well by other characters. He is a flawed character, but that makes him more relatable.
Regarding the story, it is well done. It takes what is the equivalent of a long car chase and turns it into an evolving story. Where most directors would have solely has car chases, this film uses the chase to forge the characters into who they are by the end of the movie. It is a testament to cinema that something like this can still occurring a summer movie.
The story has layers and allows every character to have human moments and human motivations. It allows the audience to feel a moment of empathy for every character, no exceptions.
The action in this movie is non stop and creative. You can feel every flame and explosion. The vehicles, expanding on the characters and helping to highlight the post apocalyptic destruction. The universe is best shown through the action as the vehicles show how crazy the world has become.
This is a world that I am happy to see return. It is showing how the wasteland has evolved into tribes over time. Each tribe has their own style.
This movie is a great movie to watch. Tom Hardy is an actor that I am happy to see bring back the character of Max Rockatansky. This is a must watch film, which has so far been my summer movie of the year.

Recommendation: Watch it. IMAX is better.
All feedback is welcome, have a great day.
