Review Time: this film is superb!

Artistic visions/Fundamental core/Action sequences: these three elements individually or together have a massive impact on this project, the artistic visions are outstanding as we go throughout this project, it could be the landscapes being incredibly hostile one second and then within a second, beautiful and eye-catching or a mixture between hostile yet eye-catching or these vehicles that have been built for war, there is so much more to this project than what I have put here.

Every little detail has a certain part to play in this project, so as soon as this film begins, it tells its audiences in its movements straightaway "You better sit tight, because this is going to be a bumpy ride" [you see it has a very strong identity to it so not only does it know what it is doing, it has the confidence to speed up when this film needs to move like greased lightning, but it can also instantaneously slow things down to, for an example focus on some dialogue exchanges.

I do like how this project treats the night-time sequences [or I think they are the night-time sequences everything goes dark, you can still see what is happening.] But my point is this; I like how this film shows the same kind of respect to every sequence regardless if it is a night time or a day time or a scene or sequence of events.

The action sequences, well in a nutshell they are almost an ever present [like 70 to maybe 80% of this project] is non-stop action, the sequences have a larger-than-life presence to them [it could be when these vehicles are on the move or something else,] it doesn't matter these sequences are going to be explosive, true anarchy and mayhem. But I should just point out every action-packed sequence feels very natural to be happening at that specific time, meaning the action-packed sequences if they should roll off one another there is no awkward slow down in the tempo, it is almost continuous, unless it has been built into the storyline to do so.

Cast: they all do fantastic as their characters especially Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron, two incredibly strong performances from these performers here, now obviously there are some dialogue exchanges between these two performers/characters. But because of their mannerisms and personality traits they don't need to always use dialogue exchanges to express their characters, for an example Tom Hardy as Max Rockatansky, it is very easy to see and to feel that his character is not mentally right upstairs, as he doesn't speak much, but when he speaks it is for a purpose and behind his eyes tells of a story that this man has lost everything closed to him, so he just is drifting around surviving one day followed by the next and so on and so forth.

Charlize Theron as Imperator Furiosa, she has always been somebody that performs to a high standard consistently [like Tom Hardy,] so in this project she is and was the right person for this role, because this film needed a strong female lead character and that is precisely what they got when they gave this role to Theron, she is more than capable in fact she seems very comfortable putting boot to posteriors in this title.

This film receives: 100% approval, as far as I'm concerned this is a future classic, it just needs at least 15 years behind it, before we can start saying "it is a classic."
