It's grown on me for the last 2 years. It's a joyride but short on plot, but I have respect George Miller for telling a story with hardly any dialogue with emotional expressions.

John Woo is shit. And plot holes are not a worthwhile form of criticism imo. Too short? It's 2 hours. Isn't Bullet in the head one of your all-time favorites? I knew the movie from u shithead! Fury road is too short for me, the death of the main villain is too abrupt! Wat I've never seen Bullet in the Head. I downloaded it though.

It's a thrill ride and it hasn't diminished for me since I first saw it. I would say I have the same feelings towards it that I have towards Aliens. Those films aren't from my preferred genre, but they managed to enthrall even me from start to finish. BUT I don't think it's the best film of 2015 as many have said. I still think The Revenant is better.

It's a thrill ride, for sure but at the end of the day, it felt empty to me. I personally think Assassins Creed is much more interesting than this.

Still a great action film from this decade.
I liked how the film relies more on action and characterization to tell the story. It has great direction, great cinematography, strong cast, interesting conflicts, and thrills. It's one of those rare films nowadays where most of the stunts and action sequences are done with practical effects.
Here's one behind-the-scene example:
Here's another:

An incredible movie. It will be a classic in the future. Charlize deserved to be nominated for Best Actress Oscar this year.

saw it the most times i've ever seen a movie at the cinema and each time it was getting better. the movie might was my favorite of all time!
then couple months ago i watched the Black and Chrome cut on my tv screen. i nearly died watching it. no extravagance here. you have no clue.
by far the definitive version of that masterpiece of a thing!
Dammit man, Black and Chrome is actually worth watching? Shit, now I have to go out and get it.

Overrated but it's indeed about as good as an action film gets.

Fury Road was just an even more jacked up Michael Bay movie with even less plot. This mentioning it like he directed The Godfather Part II or something cracks me up. I maintain Fury Road is no Transformers 2, as the latter, much derided movie, has a much better script.

Come to think of it the script would've been improved with the inclusion of a line like "I am directly below the enemy's scrotum."

Idk probably could’ve used a scene or two where the war rig turns into a giant robot.

Scary, scary thread.
Rewatched it a few days ago. Still a masterpiece that hits you like a shockwave with its "how the fuck did they do this" quality. You turn it on and come out a better, purified person two hours later.
