Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaOver eighty percent of the effects seen in the film are practical effects, including stunts, make-up, and sets. CGI was used sparingly, mainly to enhance the Namibian landscape, remove stunt rigging, and for Imperator Furiosa's (Charlize Theron) left arm, which is a prosthetic limb.
- GoofsThere are several scenes in which people, including The Splendid Angharad, grab onto the vertical exhaust pipes for support while crawling around on the outside of cabin of the War Rig. Truck exhausts can often reach temperatures greater than 350 degrees Fahrenheit, which would have made holding onto them with bare hands impossible.
- Crazy creditsNear the end of the credits there is a memorial dedication that reads "Lance Allen Moore II, May 24, 1987 - March 10, 2015." Apparently Moore was a Mad Max fan killed in a motorcycle accident near Silverton, New South Wales, Australia, where Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1981) was filmed.
- Alternate versionsA "PG-13" version was created, but only screened for American test-audiences. Positive feedback towards the "R-rated" version convinced Warner Bros to release it, theatrically.

Featured review
Mad Furiosa
The movie is frantic from start to finish. In the first 30 minutes, it cans to establish the universe by the dialogues, the absurd situations that Max finds himself in and the very well introduced characters. Then, when you accept what is being shown on the screen, the movie doesn't save on action scenes, that are chaotic, full of explosions, cars flying, bodies being thrown up and... A guy in red with a flame-spouting guitar. But this movie's triumph is that these action sequences are not tiring, quite the opposite. This is due to the development and construction of characters like Nux(Nicholas Hoult, who has one of the best emotional arcs of the movie) and Furiosa (Charlize Theron) who, whether you like it or not, is the protagonist of the movie, and it adds to the emotional and dramatic weight of the scenes.
But the only problem in the movie is the reasonableness of some characters and their development like Imorttan Joe, who is imposing in the look but he doesn't talk and does a lot in the movie. It was to be expected more from Tom Hardy as Max, who has an important role in the story, but his development boils down to flashbacks and catchphrases.
The movie color palette is strong, contrasting, with orange and red vibrant tones, but also making a transition of clear to dark tones in night scenes for example, something almost black and white. The cinematography is amazing. The sceneries are simple and minimalist, open plans, and the cinematography makes you tense, because it gives you an anticipation to persecution scenes, you can see the danger coming and it holds your attention to what decisions the characters will make and what will happen next.
Overall, the movie is a really good.
