Our take on Mad Max: Fury Road

George Miller's 2015 action landmark is one long, ferocious chase across a post-apocalyptic desert, as Furiosa and Max flee a tyrant with his captive brides. Practically stunted, gorgeously deranged and almost wordless, it reinvented the modern action film. If its relentless kinetic energy and world-building gripped you, seek out high-octane action and dystopian adventures that say everything through motion and design.
