‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ Remains Hollywood’s Last Great Action Movie—10 Years Later


Released in 2015, the all-action blockbuster refuses to tap on the brakes for a split second, climbing up the gears and accelerating into joyride terrain for its entire 120-minute runtime – but at least the cars don’t fly off to the moon or face off against the dinosaurs from Jurassic Park (that’s the plot for Fast 13 by the way). Furiosa remains one of the best action heroines created in modern times, and it’s fair to say that Mad Max: Fury Road introduced her to the world, while the highly underrated Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga filled in the blanks and helped cement her legacy as an icon even further. It’s not every day, though, that a film with the main protagonist’s name in the title creates a supporting character that becomes the soul of the story.
