This image sums up Mad Max: Fury Road for me. A car chase across the desert, monster cars and trucks, and the crazy-looking guy playing rock guitar with flames coming out of it.
From the moment the movie starts, you grab on to your seat and wish your cinema seat had seat belts because the chase hardly stops.
It is a spectacle. The set design. The cinematography. The characters. All blew my mind. It is everything I expected a post-apocalyptic action movie to be.
You don't need to have watched the first three Mad Max movies that starred Mel Gibson to appreciate this installment. But it will be fun if you know those movies too.
Charlize Theron is a goddess and an actress of the highest order. And I've never cheered for badass old ladies on badass motorbikes so much in my life.
Watch it. Then when you come out of the cinema, go to the toilet, pee, and go back into the cinema to watch it again.
YOU WILL RIDE ETERNAL, SHINY AND CHROME! YOU ARE AWAITED IN VALHALLA!
