(If you’re curious, my review process. It’s also pasted at the end of this post. I don’t believe in Rotten Tomatoes. I just believe in me.)
(***all-purpose SPOILER ALERT*** there may be some in this review)
The mini-review:
Mad Max: Fury Road
acting 8
directing 9
writing 7
effects 10
editing 9
SW score: 43
4.5 out of 5 octopi
++ I cannot say enough good things about George Miller’s masterpiece. Charlize Theron is a force of supernature. Tom Hardy plays the gritty even keel to perfection. The makeup and effects and costume professionals deliver a legendary aesthetic. It’s just a fucking amazing movie.

(1) Shark Wrighter (SW) Score: Based on a sum of 5 sub-scores (acting, directing, writing/story, effects: cinematography &/or animation &/or effects, editing) with 1 being terrible and 10 being terrific.
(2) Octopuses (0-5 🐙, with 5 being fantastic and 0 being feces)
(3) Octopuses are my unquantifiable feeling…not that SW score is scientific…but this one is even less so
(4) ++ This optional section includes any incredibly *brilliant observations that don’t fit into simple quantitative slices like the scores and octopuses *(they are likely NOT brilliant)
