‘Fast X’ is one of the most ridiculous movies ever made. It’s packed with unbelievable plots, action and characters saying dialogue no one would ever say.

This cadre of crazies from Mad Max: Fury Road has a corollary to 70-year-old director George Miller: They are driven by a singular vision and purpose.
