Mad Max: Fury Road

Hit the Fury Road with Mad Max this Thanksgiving weekend and be thankful the apocalypse hasn’t happened … yet!

From director George Miller, originator of the post-apocalyptic genre and mastermind behind the legendary Mad Max franchise, comes Mad Max: Fury Road, a return to the world of the Road Warrior, Max Rockatansky. Haunted by his turbulent past, Mad Max (Tom Hardy) believes the best way to survive is to wander alone. Nevertheless, he becomes swept up with a group fleeing across the Wasteland in a war rig driven by an elite Imperator, Furiosa (Charlize Theron). They are escaping a citadel tyrannized by the Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne), from whom something irreplaceable has been taken. Enraged, the warlord marshals all his vicious gangs and ruthlessly pursues the rebels in the high-octane road war that follows.  An outrageous, full-throttle action extravaganza filled with unexpected depth, feeling and characters to root for, Mad Max: Fury Road is a stunning reinvention of the action genre that must be seen on the big screen! (Dir. by George Miller, 2015, Australia/USA, 120 mins., Rated R)
