30 years since Max Rockatansky ventured beyond the Thunderdome, he's back in a bold, bonkers and unmissable adventure that's quite simply the most exciting action movie of 2015. Financing troubles and a former leading man tarnished for both audiences and investors by his outspoken bigotry left Mad Max mastermind George Miller forced to endure development hell for years a decade. Filming finally began in July 2012, with reshoots in December 2013.

The award-winning war photographer Don McCullin may be 77 but he refuses to retire. So he is now heading for Aleppo in Syria. Why, to use his phrase, is he about to "sleep in a derelict house and slosh around the Turkish border with poor old refugees?" He explained to The Observer:
"I just want to keep in touch with myself. I don't want to become complacently comfortable."
In an interview in today's Metro, he also says:
"Not many pensioners would take on such a challenge. I want to see what's going on there."
What may prove to be his last assignment comes at a time when a documentary film, called McCullin, is being shown in cinemas. It was made by his former assistant,...
