By Nelson Tracey for CINEMACY Early into the film, Nux (Nicholas Hoult) screams the film’s tagline with cultish insanity: “What a Lovely Day!” Indeed, there isn’t a better way to summarize the visceral, unconventional, deranged journey that unfolds over the course of two jam-packed hours in Mad Max: Fury Road. An important note for potential viewers of this film is that despite the fact that it is a reboot of an existing character and world, Mad Max: Fury Road requires no preface or introduction. This is a film meant to be seen by new audiences, in direct contrast to so many of the reboots which are more a ploy of nostalgia for fanboys prior to 1990. The visionary George Miller, who has directed every film in the series, is back to tell more Max  stories for an entirely new audience. And he doesn’t hold back. Without a second to waste, we enter the world of Max Rockatansky (Tom Hardy) and it’s a nasty, fully realized post-apocalypse. Dystopias are all the rage in the wake of The Hunger Games, but none of them have nearly the level of detail and sophisticated madness that Fury Road displays. A major point of praise is that so much of the story is displayed through the visuals. The same goes for characters, plot points, you name it; this is an exercise in using dialogue to a bare minimum in favor of visual spectacle. The level of detail sets the bar extremely high for any future film trying to capture a futuristic world. Nothing is easy to digest about  Fury Road: it is a wild ride of non-stop mayhem. In other words, it is an absolute blast. One of the most exciting elements of the film is the stunt work. According to the director, 80% of what is onscreen is practical effects. Seeing some of the ludicrous stunts that are pulled off so magnificently is an incredible treat. The pacing of the film, while still remaining a nonstop thrill ride, builds nicely as it continues to get progressively bigger without losing its genuine feeling. From time to time the film cuts to black to break up the sequences, and I found myself catching my breath each time. When it comes to big-budget blockbusters, this is what we should be asking for. With the amount of money that gets poured into these movies, seeing Mad Max is a reminder of the insanely good results that can be produced. It’s just as relevant to mention how well utilized the principal cast is. This isn’t a movie grounded in flashy performances, but every character manages to say so much with so little. Tom Hardy may be my favorite working actor today, choosing such a wide range of daring projects and bringing so much poise to each one. There is an interesting parallel between this film and Locke, Hardy’s film from last year in which he is the only actor on screen, and the entire runtime he is driving in a car talking on the phone. This time around, Hardy is once again driving a majority of the time, and dealing with similar themes of chaos and control. But this isn’t just his movie. Charlize Theron is just as much the lead this time around as Imperator Furiosa, and true to form, she is the toughest female lead you could possibly conjure. Pinning the two together creates a dynamic that is top tier. The film goes at you very fast, and because the story is so richly detailed, it’s hard to capture everything the first time around. I found myself wanting to watch the film again. Incredible CGI-minimal action sequences, top-notch production design, conventiondefying structure and story– if you haven’t already gathered, this is not just another film, it is a towering feat in blockbuster filmmaking and a reminder of what movies aim to be.
