J-Bang Reviews Present: Mad Max: Fury Road

Oh what a lovely day. After seeing Mad Max: Fury Road I was surprised to see that it is more of an artistic piece of film than it is just an action movie. The film is just beautiful with its usage of vibrant colors and I love how for a film coming out in 2015 it gives me a sense of retro 70's low budget cult classic feel similar to what the old Max max's movies used to look like. The characters are likable and fun to watch and it is a joy to watch them evolve over the course of the film.
 
Earlier when I mentioned artistic feel what I mean by that is that Mad Max can be interpreted multiple different ways depending on the viewer. If you're a simple minded Joe you can watch Mad Max as just an action film but if you want to put more thought into it, Mad Max could be about feminism, it could be an allegory for an idea of what a savior supposed to be in a world where there is no hope, or it can be a tell that doesn't just have cool awesome stunts that involve exploding cars and people flying all over the place but also display the constant struggle between survival and redemption.
 
 
The different ways you can watch this film proved as the perfect reason to watch Mad Max: Fury road over and over again in the future. There are just so many ways to watch this film. Mad Max: Fury Road gets a J banging score of 4.2 out of 5.
