First of Alyla Browne deserved to be top billing along Anya and Chris because she is in half the movie playing a young Furiosa and she is great.
It's an action movie and there is plenty of good action but the movie still fails in that regard also. It fails because the movie and script sets the stage for one final epic action scene that never happens probably because of budget restrains and I suspect some script rewrites happen instead. With one final 20-30 action scene this would have been an amazing action movie finishing on a high note.
On the drama department there is a lack of new characters or even fleshed out ones apart from Chris Hemsworth's Dementus who surprisingly does amazing. Unfortunately his character is betrayed by the script as well. While he brings this character to life with great body language acting and simple stylish dialogue, he is given a monologue where the character reveals to us his thoughts and feeling but it doesn't work, because such a character embroiled in lunacy can't have self awareness, it's as if the writer is speaking to us not the character. It's a failure of the script that was likely rewritten and we get talking instead of amazing action at the very end.
