After escaping the Citadel, Mad Max (Tom Hardy) becomes a key part in Furiosas (Charlize Theron) betrayal of the overlord Immorten Joe. When the warrior Imperator Furiosa leads the despots five wives in a daring escape, she forges an alliance with Max Rockatansky, a loner and former captive. Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) Written by: George Miller, Brendan McCarthy, Nico Lathouris Directed by:George Miller Starring: Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron, Nicholas Hoult Rated: R. Even though this franchise hasn't had a new entry in more than a generation, it's likely that strong buzz will attract all kinds of teen moviegoers. Years after the collapse of civilization, the tyrannical Immortan Joe enslaves apocalypse survivors inside the desert fortress the Citadel. Drinking, drugs, and smoking aren't issues. No strong language is clearly heard, but much of the dialogue is obscured by the thundering sound effects. One woman is naked, but viewers only see her behind. Several imprisoned women are attached to machines that pump their breast milk, and some of the female characters (some of whom are played by supermodels) are treated as sexual objects, shown wearing skimpy clothing while washing. It's extremely violent, with nonstop chase scenes, explosions, deaths, blood, shooting, and stabbing, as well as violence against women (including a bloody scene involving a pregnant woman), nightmarish flashbacks, diseased flesh, and other disturbing imagery. Parents need to know that Mad Max: Fury Road - the fourth film in the Mad Max series and the first in decades - is a reboot of sorts, with Tom Hardy taking over for Mel Gibson in the title role.
