Going to go against the vastly popular opinion on this one. The originals had this grounded bizarreness to them. Here we have a movie that starts off with the action cranked to 11 and continues all the way to the end without letting up. No character development, no semblance of reality without any grounding. Hardy is no longer the average family man turned hard due to tragic circumstances like Gibson, Hardy is a hard man out of the box. Im pretty sure this entire movies dialog would fit on one page.
Maybe I'm getting old, but I no longer respond to mindless bombast. And this movie is pure bombast and nothing else. I can appreciate the subtext of strong women leading women - nothing wrong with that. But this is supposed to be MAD MAX, not Maxine. Heartbroken.
