I don't really mind...
Maybe I'm the only one, but I wasn't enamored by his take on Max. Fury Road is an absolutely fantastic movie and is easily in my top-10 right now, but I credit that much more to George Miller, Charlize, and Nicholas Hoult. Max seemed like almost an afterthought.
I think I need to watch Fury Road again, because seriously, I didn’t like it. Too cliché, too predictable.
A suggestion, since you don't like the plot:
It is a visually stunning movie, try watching it just for the cinematography. IMO... every frame could be a photograph. Here - I'll grab one, totally random. You can do this close to anywhere in the movie, take a frame - hang it on a wall:

Bonus... I could seriously do this all day and come up with amazing shots: https://i.imgur.com/gmhfZ7k.png
