The three decade gap between Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome and Fury Road was more a product of circumstances than a lack of effort on Miller's part.
Talk about taking things to a new level… Theaters showing Fury Road should have seat belts installed. George Miller uses a new cast and a sizeable budget to deliver the Mad Max film he always wanted to make but was never quite able to. Part reboot, part sequel, and part something entirely different, Fury Road takes us on a trip that is both like and unlike the earlier excursions.
30 years after last appearing on the big screen, Max roars back with a vengeance. There's no clearer or more succinct way to put it.
