Oscars 2016: Your Guide to the Eight Best Picture Nominees

Mad Max: Fury Road
Director: George Miller
Written by: George Miller, Brendan McCarthy & Nick Lathouris
Studio: Warner Bros.

Thirty years after the third film in the post-apocalyptic Mad Max franchise, George Miller returned to deliver an incredible action film that is literally a two-hour car chase of epic proportions. Although released in May, the sci-fi film hung around and critics refused to forget about it. Looks like the Academy didn’t forget either.
