When I saw the rash of negative reviews for this title, I felt I should throw in my objective 2 cents worth after watching this less than 24 hours ago. With any movie, there really is only one question you need to ask yourself. Did it entertain you? If the answer is yes, then what is all the griping for? Not every film is going to have a gargantuan budget for fancy sets and special effects. I find in-depth character development is always a challenge for the 2 hour feature film format.The plot was a little thin, character development somewhat lacking, and some evidence of lazy writing present (no effort dedicated to how they survived in the desert or at all). But then again, I'd say most modern day Star Wars movies are guilty of all those things I just mentioned on a far worse scale. But did it entertain me? The answer is yes! And I do give ratings based on entertainment value too. This movie had bikes, babes, and a healthy amount of suspense around how it was going to end for the Prince and for the robot woman Ash. You see other reviews on here have people trying to compare this film to Mad Max. I really didn't like Mad Max that much, and would rate Fury Road a solid 4 at best.
Still another post-apocalyptic Earth w/the bonus of a "Red Fever" virus to finish them off. Still another biker group w/black clothing and weird head/face masks dirt riding the deserts in search of victims. Still another ill-prepared community at an old petroleum facility with lots of kids running shelter skelter and one old defenseless person to protect them - ughhh! The raiders of course are quickly upon them like foxes on rabbits. Still used cheap clothing/props trick of using lots of light colored fabrics everywhere for the good guys/gals. Conclusion: A total been-done-before, and just as cheaply, ripoff, non-creative, grade school level production. The name actors must have had a spare day or two and needed the money.
No one should go through the pain of watching this! I ve seen makeup and sushi tutorials with a crisper screenplay and plottwist!
Boriiiiiiiing U better ready to get out of theater.. Move now!!
