This is obviously a consequence of the excessive violence in the movie but is being viewed as a disappointing development. As the film is being test screened, some of the respondents and reviewers revealed that it was a PG-13 movie.

The first look at Mad Max: Fury Road, was revealed via Entertainment Weekly's July cover. The cover story gave away some more information about the sequel to the original, Mad Max (1979).

Both the original and the new adaptation have been directed by George Miller. Miller also stated that the movie will feature very little CGI with 80% of the reel capturing naturally executed stunts. But also stated that he was working on creating, "not just a physical experience, but an intense emotional one."

In the interview with Entertainment Weekly Hardy added that the seven month shoot in the hot desert, which was completely dead and parched, was both taxing and rewarding.

"It was mental in a brilliant way," Hardy said. "You have no concrete, no coffee shops. We were in the middle of a sandpit."

Miller also spoke to IndieWire recently about avoiding reliance on a script and dialogue: "To not have to rely on dialogue...I knew right off the bat that this was going to be like a huge ballet." 

The shoot took 116 days and featured very little dialogue and few digital effects.

Mad Max: Fury Road will hit theaters on May 15, 2015.
