Mad Max Fury Road-9/10
2 hour post apocalyptic adrenaline rush. The jump from the first film to this one as far as backdrop goes wasn't jarring at all. The action sequences are enthralling. There's some cgi trickery going on of course, but, like the original, everything still feels and looks authentic and tangible, which only helps make the movie that much more enjoyable.
Have to shout out the score as well. It was appropriately manic, with a nice little hero motif thrown in.
Apparently there was some legal issue going on between George Miller's production company and Warner Bros, which stalled any sequels. But I'd gladly take another.
One other side note. It is blatantly obvious that Becky Lynch, at least during her steam punk gimmick days, ripped that schtick right out of this movie from one of the wives named Capable.
