Mad Max Fury Road décoiffe criticism – Le Figaro

PRESS RELEASE – The new part of the saga comes out May 14, the day of its presentation at Cannes. The public has not yet discovered but criticism is already unanimous.

The director George Miller returns to the saga that has made him known : Mad Max , its cars and chases are back in a fourth installment, Fury Road . Thirty years after Beyond Thunderdome , Max Roskatansky, played this time by Tom Hardy continues his journey in a post-apocalyptic universe. Six videos have been presented on the Internet, all more than Hair-raising each other. US critics are more than positive (except Daily Mirror : “Visually spectacular but hopelessly hollow”). The French press was also able to watch the movie comes out Thursday, May 14 Verdict? Definitely one of the best feature films of this kind that critics (starting with Stephen Sorin, our colleague from Le Figaro ) could see.

The action is supported by the Empress duo Furiosa – Charlize Theron covered with grease – and Max the madman. A feminist character of the action film that is good for the genre. The South African actress unrecognizable with his shaved head and his robotic arm leads the dance. Tom Hardy sees leash held by this Amazon desert. RTL emphasizes this aspect and title “ Mad Max , the feminist film that not expect.” George Miller surrounded himself with Eve Enseler, author of The Vagina Monologues . She wondered about the feelings of a victim – Splendid played by Rosie Huntington Whiteley – pregnant with her rapist.

The Sunday Jounal ( JDD ), Fury Road is “a feminist and communicative madness.” But the interest is not here. “Visually, the result is beyond expectations: the beauty of certain plans is dazzling. The ocher patina, bluish during the night visions, adds an interesting texture to the arid image in which this takes place road movie supercharged and violent, in perpetual motion, which speaks of redemption. “

In short, a visual shock and mind-blowing action. 10 out of 10 seems to be assigned by this criticism: everything is there, “colorful characters, [...] not to mention everything that makes the salt of the saga Mad Max : big cars, the roaring engines and dusty bodies’ hat for an action movie mixed with science fiction: the critics are usually more difficult as to what kind. “Enraged and ruthless, poetic and nostalgic, the blockbuster is not District.”

Le Nouvel Observateur is also satisfied: a risky bet but pays. “The filmmaker skillfully revisits mythology he created and signed a reboot of sound and fury devilishly enjoyable. The mastery of his staging proves that at 70, he still has under the hood “The journalist, Nicolas Schaller, welcomes the talent of George Miller, who manages to get out of tricky situations punctuating the course of the film.: the director created “myth through each image.”

Small problem with our Brothers Télérama which assay “ Mad Max Fury Road , opinions shared use: nice trip hallucinated or nag too? “. The article is divided into two notices of journalists: for and against. Frédéric Strauss is ready to play good cop. It remains aware of the “inventive and playful” nature of this fourth installment. “With a childish pleasure, George Miller turned a great ride.” Criticism however quickly points the tip of his nose: “History has the lightness of a sketch. The few words shelled throughout the chase only open tracks. The only true language, it is the image “

Louis Guichard takes the role of bad cop in Télérama . Here a” Paris-Dakar in suits. ” He took this metaphor by likening Mad Max an ecological feminist movie while “the two great causes of this new version are brandished with a nag voluntarism that would eventually serve.” The journalist would have preferred that this film is far endian. “He should have gone after this furious gesture that action, that movement, that of speed. George Miller remained in midwater, even in the desert. “ Mad Max Fury Road therefore give too much to see and at the same time not enough? Paradoxical.
