Oh I agree with how beautiful it looked. Every single frame could have been its own painting. The color pallets were great. The composition was great. The whole movie though just fell together perfectly, from the pacing, to the dialog, to the actual story. I have to say though, that my absolute favorite bit about the whole movie was the evolution of Nux's character. It was poetic.

I think my favorite part of the movie was Max himself. The mysteriousness of his fears, and hallucinations hooked me. I found myself imagining what it would be like to deeply regret something in that setting. To have every thought or feeling intensified by the screaming and roaring of madness. After watching the movie I felt compelled to watch the original Mad Max movies. I still haven't done that yet, but I've been trying to haha.

The first two were good. Beyond the Thunderdome felt lacking in my opinion.

Interesting fact, in case you don't know, Hugh Keays-Byrne who played Immorten Joe in Fury Road also played as Toecutter in the original Mad Max.
