Giving up the symphonic score undercuts the film. And directors George Miller and George Ogilvie took took the Max character too far too fast.
Can't know for sure if the late producer Byron Kennedy's presence would have resulted in a film that remained more true. At the same time who could have predicted that Mad Max could return as he did 30 years on?
Who knows, had Mel not the derailed his career…
Well Miller had been saying for years that he was going to make another Max movie, it was stuck in development hell for a very long time!
OmG, I just jinxed it. Sorry, if I look forward to a movie it usually flops...
Furiosa will be a great hit no doubt. Let's see how big.

It really doesn't get going until the last 15-20 minutes but I do really, really enjoy it still. It's nice getting a taste of that world before it all truly crumbled and went to hell.
But it does have a brillant opening action sequence which is nearly as good as anything in Max 2!
That opening is sublime, and while it does slow down after that, I've personally always enjoyed the human factor of it all, the family dynamic for Max, the bouts of hysteria and nerves that start infecting his fellow officers. It's really great on the drama front.
Agreed- it's the best one in that way. Also, the cars look great and (relatively) clean.
I'm actually watering at the mouth for Furiosa. This may be his craziest film yet.
