Although it is the highest-grossing Mad Max film, Fury Road was only a moderate box office success, grossing just USD 375 million worldwide against its USD 150–185 million budget. It won ten Academy Award nominations at the 88th Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director, and won the most awards of the ceremony with six awards for Costume Design, Production Design, Makeup and Hairstyling, Film Editing, Sound Editing and Sound Mixing. It was Keays-Byrne’s final film before his death in 2020 as well as Richard Carter who died in 2019. A prequel, Furiosa, was announced as being in \”advanced development\” in 2020, with Miller set to return as writer and director. The movie was widely praised by critics for its screenplay, Miller’s direction, action sequences, score, cinematography, editing, costume design, visuals, and the performances of the cast, particularly Hardy and Theron.
It is considered one of the greatest action films of all time and one ofthe best of the 2010s. It follows Max Rockatansky, a survivor haunted by visions of deceased people, who is captured by the War Boys, the army of the tyrannical Immortan Joe, and taken to Joe’s Citadel. Max is imprisoned and used as a blood bag for a sick War Boy called Nux. Meanwhile, Imperator FuriosA, one of Joe’s lieutenants, is sent in her armoured War Rig to collect gasoline and ammunition. When she diverts course, Joe realises that his five wives—women selected for breeding—are missing, and are fleeing with her. Joe leads his army in pursuit of Furio’s Rig, calling on the aid of nearby Gas Town and the Bullet Farm. After the Rig is destroyed, Max finds Furio and the wives: Cheedo, Toast, the Capable Capable, Splendid Anadadad, Dagidad, and Dagar. Max steals the Rig, having bartered for a safe passage through a biker gang-controlled canyon, but agrees to let the wives accompany him after Furio shows she is the only one who knows the correct combination to bypass the Rig’s kill switches. After a battle ensues between the War Rig and Joe’s forces, Max escapes and restrains Nux, who attempts to sacrifice himself to destroy the Rig.
