Film Review
‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ directed by George Miller and written by George Miller, Brendan McCarthy and Nico Lathouris. It stars Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron, Nicholas Hoult and Hugh Keays-Byrne.
In a stark desert landscape where humanity is broken, two rebels just might be able to restore order: Max, a man of action and of few words, and Furiosa, a woman of action who is looking to make it back to her childhood homeland. Source: IMDB
