I think this movie takes top prize in my entire life as a cinephile as being the highest rated, most critically acclaimed film that I think is 1-star tr@sh. The lowest rated film that I think is brilliant is The Counselor directed by Ridley Scott, based on the book by Cormac McCarthy. Anyone else feel me?
This was a pretty decent film, but it probably shouldn't have been a Mad Max film. It's not bad, but if you're a fan you might not like it that much, for at least a couple scenes I can think of at this moment.
I think there is a lost art in a director making one great movie, not worried about sequels, not worried about any forced political narrative, it's freeing. Instead of being under pressure to make a trilogy of just good movies, all the focus can be put into this one, fantastic story. This movie will always be great even 100 years from now, because it was brave enough to be just one movie. All the focus, the attention, casting, dialogue, was focused into this one film.
Also, this isn't a movie about the superiority of women or men. There is a alpha male, and a alpha female who team up to rid the wasteland of a threat.
I know theres some who are poo-pooing this movie. That's fine, but don't present your opinion as a majority held one when the movie has almost a 90% approval by critics and audience. Which is amazing in itself that its rare the two both enjoy something.

Except for Max all the other men in the movie are bad. That says it all.
