FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA Movie Review | George Miller | Anya Taylor-Joy | Chris Hemsworth

[@miquesbookvlogs372]

Best of luck on getting 30k subs!! You guys are my favorite critics hands down. Been watching you since 2011 during the WTF days. the Sucker Punch review was the first one I saw and I've been tuning in ever since 🤩

[@BreakfastAllDay]

We are honored, thank you so much!

[@SpeedandSplendor]

Fury Road is the finale for Furiosa. It's masterclass world building not another epic chase. I didn't want another 2 hours of trying to one up a masterpiece. This is a near perfect follow up.

[@JoeLancaster]

Agreed, and it actually elevates Fury Road at the same time. Both absolutely phenomenal and complimentary films.

[@El_oh7199]

George Miller is too smart to just give you Fury Road pt 2. He delves much deeper into grief and vengeance in Furiosa. And as part of the Mad Max saga, i found it more satisfying than Fury Road, which is a two hour car chase adrenaline rush. And its still leagues better than any of the rehashed s**t we see from Hollywood there days

[@lockekappa500]

Exactly, I never get the comparisons to Fury Road as a negative. Even if its not as good as Fury Road, it's still arguably the 2nd best action movie EVER MADE.

[@stephenatwood241]

Since movie theaters are struggling, why don't they rerelease Mad Max: Fury Road to at least IMAX screens??

[@BreakfastAllDay]

That's a really good idea!

[@sambradley1256]

@@jaceacekalgoorlie’woke’ has become a meaningless word. Just explain what it is you think the actual problem is.

[@traydevon]

So why does Alonso think this movie needed to be as good as Fury Road, or to meet those expectations to justify existing? Fury Road is regarded as one of the greatest action movies of all-time. No one should ever expect another movie to be what no one ever expected Fury Road to be before they saw that one.

[@Elefanteazulll]

Yeah, it's like seeing the sunset or sunrise for the first time and on the next day you expecting to be much more incredible, or expecting to feel like the first time, but yet you still thinking that it is a beautiful thing but you not admit

[@BretRBoulter]

My brother does this, it's a defense mechanism against getting disappointed, and against feelings for something you like changing, so you proactively decide nothing can top the thing you like. Therefore you don't have to think critically about the new thing, except to find "reasons" to dismiss it, and you aren't disappointed (in fact you can feel superior to everyone) and you don't have to risk re-evaluating something you love and now have identity invested in. It's so effective, and so sad.

[@ed1rko17]

Sorry that George Miller doesn't have the same artistic talent of the committee that made the cinematic masterpiece Ant-Man Quantumania Alonzo. Not every movie director can be Peyton Reed when he's firing on all cylinders, directing 2% of a movie where the other 98% was done in previz by a formula to give us the most generic and lifeless movie we've ever seen. We need more critics defending corporate MCU and further encouraging the death of movies made by real people!

[@jordandean7893]

[@Fzane-mn8fh]

Dude no truer words have been spoken! In 2015 I saw a double feature of Fury Road and Age of Ultron. AoU just felt like the same old copy and paste mandated by committee Marvel flick. FR felt like I was really watching a unique, surreal , exhilarating personal vision by a true artist!

[@jasoncarrick5461]

I have a bit of an issue with Alonso"s review, a 6 is pretty average score and if he wasn;t comparing it to Fury Road then he would have gone higher?? That seems a bit unfair to this movie imo. I have to rewatch "Fury Road", for some reason I don;t remember most of it but am also looking forward to this.

[@Fzane-mn8fh]

Agreed! Why would Miller spend so much time creating this world we saw in FR only to deviate from it in this film? Especially seeing how this is a prequel set in the same world! That would just not make sense. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!!!

[@mmmab1]

You talk about "Fury Road" as if it were the first in a series, but as we all know it was itself a sequel to three other Mad Max movies, which made it all the more impressive.

[@BreakfastAllDay]

Correct, it reinvented the series and did something totally inspired with it.

[@janechoy2073]

I saw an advance screening and I 100% agree with Christy! This movie is so fun and exciting to watch, and I feel engaged the whole time even though it's a very long movie. The story / world building is much more expansive than Mad Max (but yes still fundamentally simple), which I do appreciate. I'm still miffed that it's not Charlize Theron but Anya Taylor Joy did well!!! However the stunt teams and production / art design teams are the TRUE stars of this movie - much more elevated from Mad Max!

[@BreakfastAllDay]

So glad you had a blast, Jane!

Anya Taylor-Joy in a dystopian desert... for me, this will suffice until _Dune Messiah_ comes out.

[@nancykerrigan]

I swear your transitions keep getting better and better. I don't know if I will see this since I only saw Fury Road in he Mad Max series and I thought it was...fine. I know I know.

[@musicmann1967]

This was a revenge flick, pure and simple. I realized that early on. Miller's not trying to do what he did in Fury Road, story wise. it's a revenge flick. A fantastic one, at that. It leaned into the action and revenge while giving lots of character work too. I think I got a bit confused with what exactly Dementus was doing with his double crosses and hostile take overs. "Wait, who is doing what to whom?" But I didn't worry about it and TOTALLY enjoyed the ride here. And you're right the transition from young Furiosa to older Furiosa was seamless. I actually found myself thinking "Wait, is that Anya now? Ah, YES!!" So well done, I'm not sure if I missed the actual point of transition. The action sequences were very well designed, and although they were very propulsive, the movie also took its time so the action sequences felt like a stories unto themselves. Brilliant stuff. Anyways, I really had a blast with this movie! (Bad Alonso!! Bad! Hahaha)

[@Ian-ky5hf]

[@calvero4159]

[@lemosno]

Christy and Alonzo are my favorite movie critics. Zo’s review got me this time. I hope he is wrong cuz I’m seeing Furiosa ASAP

[@ACosmonaut]

The segues into the ad reads are my new reason for living.

[@handle6324]

Fury Road was the first Mad Max I saw. It was of course a great movie that I've since come to consider a masterpiece, but at the time thought, "Well clearly there's more to this story." I eventually did watch the first 3 movies but was somewhat surprised that there was basically no direct backstory. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing that "needed" to be filled, but I do think that there was a clear gap and escalation between Thunderdome and Fury Road that I think Furiosa is justified in helping to fill. I agree with Alonso that it is impossible to live up to Fury Road. I think that the idiosyncratic storytelling and creative choices was closer to something like Road Warrior, which to me helps me not compare it to Fury Road. I see Furiosa as trying to support Fury Road rather than compete with it, which it knows it cannot do, and I think it succeeds at making Fury Road even better and also succeeds at putting some glue in the overarching story of the Wasteland. I would definitely recommend telling someone watching these movies for the first time to watch Furiosa before the big orgasm of Fury Road, which is why I also very much disagree that the credits decision. Saying to someone "Watch 1-3, then Furiosa but not the end credits, then Fury Road" is a very awkward way to recommend a movie series.

[@aishaalamoudi599]

[@nick90000]

Saw in Imax, liked it. Biggest negative was the CGI, more practical VFX would have been better, or the use of The Volume would also have improved the long vista shots and especially in the non-action scenes, in which the CGI was very noticeable.

[@michaelgrife6964]

[@Regenmacher175]

I enjoy this film for different reasons than Fury Road. I like the fact that we have a slower-paced character piece that is of an epic scale, looks great and features a lot of spectacular action setpieces. Back in the day, one of the criticisms expressed with regard to Fury Road was the fact that the film was essentially just one big chase scene there and back again and to an extent that's true. It's still excellent at being that but it does not get to devote a lot of time to the characters. Furiosa does devote a lot of time to the main character and on top of that the film makes the conscious choice to have her speak as little as possible...and yet I always knew what she was thinking and feeling because Anya Taylor-Joy is that good an actress. One of the most thrilling action dystopias I have had the joy of watching tbh.

[@athenian221]

As much as I didn't like Beyond Thunderdome I appreciated that it wasn't just a remake of The Road Warrior. Some filmmakers want to replicate their success so much they just remake the first one for example The Hangover 2 is basically the first Hangover.

[@nocturnus009]

We have an impossible task before us. The journey there & back and said quests’ telling. Not easy when going to Troy or returning to Ithaca… Fury Road has an interesting place in John Truby’s Anatomy of Genre. Well worth reading after his Anatomy of Story.

alonso i really am watching many of your reviews and respect them but i can not believe the idea that you really kinda think that this movie is just a prequel for prequel sake. georges interviews to this movie are so insightful and sensitive that i simply believe and HOPE that you are wrong on this one. furiosa is such a great character and diving into it, especially with georges vision, seems more than a great idea to me. see ya in a week

[@sclogse1]

The most important issue you never addressed: What's the label on the inside of George's leather jacket?

[@chriscjamison]

Alonzo feels about Furiosa like I (not that I'm anyone) felt about the Matrix Reloaded. The Matrix Reloaded is an excellent action movie, but didn't have the mystery or the impact of the original. I didn't think fondly of it for a long time because it simply didn't blow my mind like the original. But looking back, I think I was disappointed only because I was expecting something that literally only has happened a handful of times in the 100+ years of cinema - a sequel (or prequel) that is more innovative and groundbreaking than the landmark original. I hope in time Alonzo can appreciate the movie for what it is (an excellent genre pic and relative to follow-up movies, very well done) than what it failed and likely could never be. I can see the rationale for his score if it is reflective of the lack of vision by the studio or Miller's motivation to make a new movie in the series. He would be using his review to make a point. But, as someone who just saw this movie yesterday, I would give it an A or A-, as opposed to Fury Road's A+. Furiosa is excellent and it's a shame we won't get to see a third movie or Anya Taylor Joy in this role again.

[@zhunn484]

I really don't understand Alonso's perspective here.

[@Gavin48]

I can. Fury Road was pretty much perfect and should have been a one and done. Imagine there being a Gravity 2 or a sequel to 1917, Dunkirk or The Revenant. It just wouldn't work. If Miller wanted to jump back into this world again he should have done something very different or maybe add some depth or expansion on the lore. The Raid 2 did what I think Alonso wanted from Furiosa.

[@DugTheDog]

[@Gavin48]

@@DugTheDog lol don't give them ideas.

[@JohnGottschalk]

Fury Road was a perfect sequel. It took the Mad Max world, but then introduced the war boys, immortan joe, furiosa, aaaand made it an absolute banger of a chase scene the whole movie. No other Mad Max movie does that. And although there were raiders and desert and Max in previous movies, that movie set up it's own lore for the new characters and explored a whole new corner of the world. It did something novel, it added new depths. I can see him being disappointed if this one covers the same ground in form and in world-building while also some bits taking a step down. It feeling more cgi is gonna be a big knock for me. The fact that everything felt so visceral and actually there is what sold it for me. The more cgi stuff is noticeably the less I'm invested in the action.

[@iansmart4158]

@@Gavin48from what I’ve heard, only one of the 5 chapters is chase scene in the mood of Fury Road. So I do think the movie does expand the lore in the way you’re referring. From trailers we get to see a thriving green place and actually get a look at bullet town and gas town. It’ll be more than just more fury road but lesser.

[@markkavanagh7377]

Hope that mad guitarist is in it. Maybe we get to see him get his first guitar by trading in a sibling for it, and then find a 'teach yourself guitar' book in the ruins of Bartertown, and then build amps out of junk from the wrecks strewn around from the Road Warrior chase!

[@user-friendly-b6q]

Hello guys, I saw it yesterday here in Spain in my local theater and I couldn't agree more with you , this is not FURY ROAD at all, it is a movie as far from Fury Road as possible. Taylor Joy is talented of course but there's little can do, she looks much more like a model than like FURIOSA. It was a big disappointment for me, it lacks so many things it could have been, too bad really. And a very uncharismatic love interest too. Thank you for another great review!!!

[@minimalistwriter401]

Just saw it and thought it was great. Couple things bugged me, including the snippets in the end credits - not necessary, and awkward I thought. There is a realization about Furiosa somewhere in the middle that she seriously tries to hide. If you've seen it, then you'll know which one I mean. When it's revealed, it should be a thing. Instead, only one character reacts, and it's totally passed over otherwise. I feel like Miller should have cut somewhere else and shown at least Immortan Joe's reaction - something. But these are small nits. overall, I loved it. Following Charlize Theron is not for the feint of heart. Anya Taylor Joy did it with expertise. Well done. Chris Hemsworth's Dementos - a wonderfully erratic, heartbroken, soulless, incompetent and yet formidable wanna-be. How many incompetent characters have we seen that are presented as buffoons? Not this one. He may not know what he's doing, but he has great cunning and brings about devastating destruction. I thought Dementos was well crafted. He reminded me a little of Wolf Larson in the Sea Wolf by Jack London.

Not saying its above criticism but if Fury Road never existed people would probably react the same way to this. This franchise deserves to do gangbusters and I hope it can keep its legacy going when the super populr franchises like Star Wars, DC and Marvel are struggling to realise anything of even a solid cinematic standard at the moment

The more cgi stuff is noticeably the less I'm invested in the action. I honestly felt a bit similarly in the second Dune movie. The first Villeneuve Dune movie hit it out of the park with the world building, visual styling and pacing and wowed me. The second one... I was left wanting for something more, it covered too much of the same territory, being with the desert folks was cool, but was a bit repetitive without giving more engaging depth to their culture or struggle. I felt like I knew it all and was just waiting for it to play out. Direct sequels & prequels are hard. And I'd recommend more do what Fury Road did based on Mad Max 1-3, then what Furiosa is doing in relation to Fury Road.

Saw it Thurs. & then watched Fury Road again last night & I look way more fwd to being able to watch these back to back than I do Denis’ Dune & hope we get the Max Wastelands film for an epic marathon. Valid points for discussion & criticism aside it’s beyond me what universe in which this deserves a score of essentially ‘slightly better than average’ @ a 6 ?!? The craft alone puts it leaps and bounds beyond most of what gets shovelled out into theatres. If this is what qualifies as a 6, I’d say theatre owners & studios should just give up now, shut down the industry and find something better to do w/ their lives. Hopefully there’s a significant contingent that isn’t dissuaded by such a score & vehemently disagrees. Everyone is entitled to their opinion & entitled to be wrong. In my estimation Christy is infinitely more correct in this instance. As an aside, only having seen it late in its run, I also found Alonso’s review of Civil War baffling as it lacked any explanation sufficient enough for me to grasp the POV and so devoid of value. Having seen Marianna’s take over on Impression Blend I’m left to assume it’s along the lines of what was intended. To me it seemed crystal clear where it needed to be and avoided spelling things out where it would alienate those who most needed to receive the message. 🤷‍♂️

Too many reviews make the mistake of comparing it to fury road. It's not fury road, it's not trying to be fury road, it's a prequel movie. It's meant to be about the characters, not meant to be more dazzling than fury road. Even though it is a prequel it is meant to be watched and enjoyed as it's own movie, it's own animal. Also adding more new bs just to have "new stuff" doesn't make it a better movie. It's meant to go more in detail about Gaston and the bullet farm because we don't know the details on these places unless we watch furiosa. Basically if you go into the movie with the predisposition "let's see how this compares to fury road" easily you will be disappointed because its a completely different movie and completely different style of movie. He literally says it's an odyssey. Fury road takes places over like 2 or 3 days. Those are supposed to be a very eventful 2 or 3 days. Furiosas events are going to take place with longer spans of time in between

Looks like a pretty good popcorn movie. Guess I'll have to get around to watching Fury Road at some point. Action movies generally bore me pretty quickly, though.

[@BreakfastAllDay]

Yes, please do! Fury Road gives you no chance to get bored.

[@patpowers9210]

@@BreakfastAllDay OK, BTW, you guys are right about Anya Taylor-Joy's eyes. "Queen's Gambit" was worth watching for her eyes alone.

[@michaelgrife6964]

You two are American classics in your own way.

It's no fury road .I wish it had less cgi .I liked the story but it was too long could.have taken 45 mins out of the movie.it was good but I didont love it.the 15 min chase was amazing .

[@Thechickinaaronscar]

Keep in mind he liked madame web lol

[@redknight4805]

I disagree. Furiosa is a better movie than Fury Road in every possible way.

[@RichardHannay]

Does it look like a “made for tv” type of movies with the CG?

[@BreakfastAllDay]

Not at all, it looks much better than that.

[@ferizsolnai]

I'm a little bit tired of film critics frowning on CGI. "This time they took the easy way!" Yeah. Because as we all know, CG does not require people with hard-earned skills at all, it's the computer that does everything. There are no impossible deadlines, no burnout epidemic, and nobody ever leaves the CG artists out of the credits, because CG? Meh! CG artists are highly skilled professionals, who work day-and-night to fulfil the audience's extreme expectations, and all they get is "oh, the easy way". Show some respect, reviewers. This craft is as honest as yours.

[@c17sam90]

The thing is there’s tons of CGI in Fury Road but people never focused on how great the compositing was or how it was used they ignored it to focus on just the practical

Please review Aggro Dr1ft

[@SoCalDan530]

Saw Furiosa today. Fan-fuckin-tastic.

[@SupremacySinema]

Alonso’s review was truly utterly worthless. He set his own expectations to an unreasonable standard. That’s purely on him, not the movie.

[@TroyTheObtuse]

"Temper your expectations" is hardly worthless advice.

[@SupremacySinema]

@@TroyTheObtuse”Don’t expect this movie to be one of the greatest films of all times” is pretty useless. Why would anyone reasonable expect that?

[@TroyTheObtuse]

@@SupremacySinemaI'd agree with you, if that were all Alonso had to say. But he said what he liked, described his specific disappointments, and gave it a mildly positive endorsement and recommendation to see it large and loud. But that wasn't effusive enough for some.
