Mad max fury road 4k blu-ray review12/3/2022 The film is among the best reviewed of the year and with good reason – it delivers everything that we would expect it to.

Yes, my life has several double standards like that. But when I learned that the original director, George Miller, would once again helm the production then I was instantly ok with it. Having been a casual fan of the original Mad Max trilogy, I won’t say that the franchise was in need of a reboot or a new installment or whatever this movie is supposed to represent. I guess my personal philosophy is that if it ain’t broke – don’t fix it. ![]() In the right cases and in the right hands, I’m ok with them.
