I had to test out a new home projector with a BluRay and I can confirm the results. 'Mad Max Fury Road' is still the best action film of all time.


Do you agree with Edgar Wright? For me, it's T2, but Fury Road is awesome.

Fury Road, Raid 1/2, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Die Hard, John Wick 1, Aliens, etc. They’re all in the pantheon.

Fury Road gets a lot of love from people in the industry because it’s a technical marvel that maybe 1% of filmmakers could’ve pulled off. Go read Stephen Soderbergh’s thoughts on it

Fury Road and the Raid movies are the ones that always have me thinking “how tf did they do that?” I still smile when I watch them as if it were my first time.

Lots of people haven’t seen the Raids, buy both on Blu-ray if you haven’t. Best choreography of all time, infinitely rewatchable. Watching the Behind The Scenes stuff is mindblowing. Gareth Evans (the director) just gets it

It's up there

Probably one of the most intense theater experiences I've ever had.

Of course not. It’s not even a very good film, period.

The action sequences are fantastic though. But that doesn’t make it a good movie.

I haven't had a chance to watch the second one yet, but the first is a classic.

The first is a focused and gritty proof-of-concept film, and the 2nd is an epic crime drama. he wanted to make 2 first, but had to make 1 to show investors that they were the real deal. It's amazing and much bigger in scope, but has the same quality action scenes.

Are you kidding me?

It has perfect story structure.

Provide your evidence for it not being a good film.

Lol. Fury Road is an amazing film. I'll never take your opinions seriously again.

Most of the effects are practical
