Why does a movie need some complicated plot to be interesting? There was a very definitive narrative, albeit a simple and straightforward one. This movie can have the sound turned all the way down and anyone could follow it. That's not a bad thing when it comes to something designed to be a visual medium.

Full Metal Jacket has less of a plot than Fury Road, but it's regarded as one of the great movies of all time. Same with Apocalypse Now and many other "classics". Saying something doesn't have enough story is weak criticism.
You do realise that 99% of the scenes are for the most part CGI?

I am not talking about a complicated plot, how about a reason to want to give a flying shit about the characters or where the story was going?

I disagree, in Full Metal Jacket you get to know the characters and the same with Apocalypse Now, their struggles and feel sad and even happy with people die (Gunnery Sargeant shot by Pvt Pyle). I remember the first time I watched both of those movies and thoroughly enjoyed it then and still do now. Fury is not in the same league.

Yeah, I will definitely watch the BTS now, the originals did definitely have flaws, however this was just completely over the top.

Ah well, i'll try the BTS stuff and see how that goes
