Pessoal, este texto da EMPIRE Magazine [uma das maiores / melhores de CINEMA do Mundo, sem dúvida alguma] posta "MAD MAX FURY ROAD" como [claro] O melhor filme do ano. Mas o texto é tão bom que não resisti, tinha de postar aqui [tá em inglês - sorry, sou professor mas confesso não tive saco de traduzir desta vez =]. o mais cool é que eles sacaram a referência aos Wild Boys do Duran Duran [que mencionei no dia em que assisti "Fury Road" com minha girlfriend Penny]. Gente bem informada é outra coisa ; )

1. Mad Max: Fury Road

More than 30 years after leaving Max in the wasteland, George Miller returns to his signature series with results that can conservatively be called extraordinary. On paper it doesn’t sound like much – Max (Tom Hardy, replacing Mel Gibson) and Furiosa (Charlize Theron) escape from somewhere and then go back again. But it’s the insane assemblage of post-apocalypse desert freakery and mechanical carnage that elevates Fury Road to an incredible, visceral, purely cinematic experience.

This is filmmaking as myth, legend, campfire tale.

What’s almost unbelievable is that this is a studio movie: Warner Bros. trusting a significant budget (estimated at $150m) to Miller’s undiluted, berserk vision. That vision includes vehicles fuelled with blood, ‘Doof Warriors’ playing flaming guitars as they hurtle into battle, CG used in respectful subservience to jaw-dropping practical stunts, and Hugh Keays-Byrne’s Immortan Joe presiding over a religious cult seemingly inspired by a Duran Duran song that was inspired by the original Mad Max films (“Wild Boys always shine”, remember). Fury Road takes notes from John Ford’s Stagecoach and Sergio Leone’s Dollars films while forging its own route, and sits alongside the previous Max films while paying no attention to continuity whatsoever. This is filmmaking as myth, legend, campfire tale. Sequels have been mooted but it’s hard to imagine ever experiencing anything like Fury Road again.
