He has just a handful of lines in all the movies. Max is the silent protagonist, always has been. They must have seemed just as mythical and fantastical to him as Immortan Joe. Hell, at his age, I would do anything for a girl I was crushing on and there were girls everywhere, and none of them were half as nice or beautiful as the girls in the movie. If I were a teen boy who had never seen a woman that looked like that, and after losing faith she stood up for me, told me the truth and comforted me, I'd do anything for her. Nux's transition makes sense, he's a teen boy who has been lied to his whole life, fails three times, once in front of his "god" and then is told the truth by beautiful women.

How did you discuss the merits of whether it's a great action movie without discussing the action at all in your entire post? Everything you complain about is stuff I felt was done extremely well.

I'm more just curious if I'm the only one who feels this way. And if you love Fury Road, I have no problem with you at all. Hell, it's not even the greatest action movie of the last couple months. It's not the greatest action movie of this year. I tell my friends if they ask that Fury Road is "pretty cool." But it's not the greatest action movie of the last decade. But in my own estimation, Fury Road fails to live up to not only its own expectations, but actually falls below those of "lesser films" of its genre. Fury Road aspires to be a level above that, and most people seem to agree. But the Fast and Furious movie know what they are, and continually aim for that. I personally love the Fast and Furious franchise, which I'm sure will lose me some credibility with this post. The movie, in all ways, promises a certain kind of understanding of self, and fails to deliver on it. Nicholas Hoult's character made no fucking sense whatsoever, in terms of his sudden switch from fanaticism to "good guy." The whole film felt like a well-funded music video for a metal band that I would never want to see in concert.

The plot was inane - we're going to drive to the edge of nowhere, and then drive back, because because (and yes, I still expect my non-plot-driven movies to have at least some semblance of plot). Tom Hardy had probably ten lines of dialog, and managed to deliver each one in a different accent. So I wasn't expecting anything other than what it was, and yet I still found it to be totally hollow, and completely disappointing. I also had the benefit of knowing, going in, that Fury Road was not going to be particularly character/dialog/plot-driven, but a masterpiece of action, sound, cinematography, and spectacle. The most recent example being Guardians of the Galaxy, where I wasn't able to see it until its home video release, and it was hyped to levels that would be unfair to almost any film, and I still was blown away by it. However, I've had a similar experiences with plenty of movies, and have been able to temper my opinion based on what I had heard going in. Sure, most people would assume that the reason I didn't share in the public appreciation was because it had been too hyped for me. To be clear, I was always cognizant of my expectations, and I was careful to not allow them to color my own thoughts about the film. Then I went to see it for myself.and I could not have been more underwhelmed. In essence, it was a consensus that Mad Max: Fury Road is a great movie. Then I read what /r/TrueFilm had to say about it, which was more of the same. Then I read what the general populace of Reddit thought about it, which is that it's the best action movie of the decade. Then it came out, and got 98% on RT, which is an impossibly high number.

It looked like the "right" kind of action movie. I saw the Fury Road trailer, and was super pumped.
