How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A sun-scorched fever dream of chaos and spectacle, where Max is stripped of agency but finds purpose in protecting the innocent. Expect baroque villainy, ritualistic combat, and a climax that feels earned through sheer force of will.
