Is they barely made it about Max. It was just Tom Hardy being crazy/badass with short sentences. Mel Gibson was more of a character

Very amazing visuals in this movie though. Almost over.

I dunno. Made sense to me. Trying to escape sex slaves to some promised land. Get there, it's wasteland. Turn back, kill the guy

I guess they put all their thoughts into cinematography

Max wasn't much of the focus in The Road Warrior either to be fair.

Max story is always being told in 3rd person. He wont be the focus ever.

While I may not agree with your opinion, I will defend to the death your right to have it.

So your main problem is that the new Mad Max did exactly what Mad Max did?

I don't know how anyone can find problems with a movie that has a guy suspended off a semi truck playing metal on a flame throwing guitar.

the major issues were the hackneyed romance subplot, a lack of more legitimately compelling character motivation, some silly troping like the 'fall to knees and scream upward' shot

but it's still good overall and looks great for sure
there's a lot of cool set pieces interspersed for what is essentially all car fights in a desert

And in an infinite regress, tell me, why is the pain of birth lighter borne than the pain of death?

There literally wasn't a romance subplot unless you count "dude abusing sex slaves" as romance.

Apparently not wanting to be gutted and hung by your intestines over the side of a cliff is just not compelling enough to want to do anything about it.

Oh no! Not a reused trope!
