Spoiler

The Mad Max franchise will be resurrected! The only question is, will Mel Gibson return for it?

That remains to be seen but it has been announced that Charlize Theron will be joining the post-apocalyptic fun! She has signed on to star in the fourth chapter of the series, titled Mad Max: Fury Road.

As the film doesn't start shooting until next August, the production still has time to sway Mel to return. But, if he declines, the show will go on without him, says director George Miller, who also helmed the first three films: "It could be Mel, it could be anyone."

Booked in for 2100 tonight. Cannot believe the amount of good press this is getting.... hopefully this will turn around the action movie genre and bring it back to the top!

My review will be up on the main website over the next few days

It's a great triumph for old school filmmaking and stunt work.
But logic takes a holiday. And much silliness abounds. A three star movie. Already the film is being wildly overpraised. It's good. Really good. But it's not a masterpiece or a game changer. Once you have time to digest it, you realize it is less than you thought in the moment. It's a ride. Once the adreneline is gone- the illogic and holes become quite clear. But I want it to be a hit, because I want practical effects to win the summer.
Best part: A lot of the stunts recall (in the most glorious way) the early Indiana Jones stuntwork with real stuntmen.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I enjoyed it, but not as good as I was expecting based on the hype. So many elements of the plot are pointless. The characters will do something, only to have it not matter seconds later.

GO SEE IT RIGHT NOW!

Tons of praise heightens expectations but I use rotten tomatoes a lot and i can stand to be corrected but i would imagine this is the highest scoring adult themed movie since the site began...............allowing of course for number of critics as there's plenty of 100% with a handful of scores.
Anybody care to suggest a higher scoring movie with over 100 critics votes

just thought of one and LA Confidential is on 99% with over a 100 votes

As great as the action is- there is zero suspense to them. They just happen. I 'get' having stoic characters. But you have so little invested in them (because you have no empathy for a cypher) that the stakes are almost zero. You have have to first care about a character to the care what happens to them.

Yes- and Pauline Kael called 2001: A Space Odyssey "A monumentally unimaginative movie".
You use critics as a baromometer and that is all. 99% of the critics on Rotten Tomatoes have very little in the way of credentials and have very little business criticizing films. Film criticism is not something you just do. You have to have a baseline knowledge. Easy identifiers of a unqualified critic:
A) they write grammatically incorrect sentences that read like someone TRYING to get a line pull for an ad.
B) they wax poetic about something in the film that is new to them, but has in fact been done many times in the past. (Usually young reviewers who have no idea of films before 1983).
C) the FOMO critic (fear of missing out)- part of herd mentality. Wants be one of the first to praise what might be a blockbuster, so the they can call "FIRST!" on wildy overpraising a movie.
You can also NOT judge a quality of a film on box office. Studios and the general public currently use box office as an argument for popularity and success. This is misleading. If I buy a ticket- my ticket is not a 'yay' vote. It is simply me going to see the film. If Transformers 4 has $180 million worth of tickets sold- that means that, roughly 22 million people saw it. It does not take into account that 80% of those people may have hated the film.
Example: these are massive hit movies- Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Spider-Man 3, Pirates of The Carribean 3: On Stranger Tides, Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Grown Ups, The Star Wars Prequels...
Yet- you are hard pressed to find even one person who says they love any one of those movies.
(And if you do- great. That's one.)
But they were great big box-office hits. Why? Because people wanted to see if they were good. And we used the metric that a ticket purchased is an 'upvote' for the film. It isn't. It is only dollars spent to see a movie, not an actual critique of a movie.
We cannot judge films by metrics. And we should not be swayed by aggregate review sites.

If I wasn't swayed by the aggregate score of a movie I would have paid good money to watch the seventh son

 

[blumaster]

was a pretty great action movie. Not on the level of The Road Warrior, but is definitely a good addition to the "Max" saga. Can't wait for the unrated blu-ray.

Spot on, he was brilliant you couldn't help but laugh after a while.

Just waiting on @bloodsnake007 review on this as I know he went to watch it last night

 

[kaw]

Went this afternoon.
Loved it! What a totally Insane Movie! I loved that it embraced it's craziness instead of being fearful of going too far (like most films these days).
A very fun time. Worth seeing in theaters for sure.

but guitar dude wins

[blumaster]

not at all from the movie, but I can't stop saying "just walk away and I will spare your lives. Just walk away."

So happy that Mad Max is back.

+? pick a number, lol.
I was buzzing every time his guitar playing started, you knew what was coming next

 

[rover]

I absolutely loved every second of this movie! It'll be hard to beat it as my favourite film of '15.
A couple of points:

Spoiler

Tom Hardy was great but I did wish at stages that they had got someone who could do an Australian accent.
Really enjoyed the soundtrack; like Hans Zimmer on meth.
My favourite bit - when Immortan tells Nox, "I'll take you to Valhalla myself." Then Nox stumbles, drops the gun. "Mediocre". LOL
It's great to see the film-making technology we have today catch up with Miller's vision.
Avengers 2 can go suck it!
