I did not really know what to expect going in, and coming out I was not quite sure what I had just seen, completely at a loss for words. For starters, the movie is not about plot. Imagine a post apocalyptic desert wasteland world that is short on resources. That's really all you need to know. There is a society that is run by a disgusting (yet imaginative) looking villain that controls all of the water. And then the chase ensues, a chase that lasts for two glorious hours.
The movie is literally nonstop, crazy, intense action. The chase takes place in juiced up monster vehicles that are made up of parts of other cars. Every vehicle is unique and they make the chase all the more exciting. The violence is brutal and graphic but the sound effects and the ridiculousness of the entire movie slightly mitigate the effect on the viewer. The production design is incredible, from the cars, to the Citadel, to the variations on barren wasteland that they drive through. The costumes and makeup too are fantastic. Due to a lack of water, everyone has this awful dirty look and the War Boys are all bald and pure white with black around their eyes. They are so devilishly creepy. And the movie overall is an over-the-top explosion of insane style.
