FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA - Movie Review

[@SoulKnightKing]

Hey, Maggie. Quick note. I've binged at least half of all your YT clips. What's really satisfying is your log off speech. You say the same thing, but despite the binges, it never gets old. You remind us we can subscribe if want, you invite us to leave comments or watch videos but leave no pressure or judgment if we don't. You plug in your website and your commission, but it's not tacky. You're quick and to the point and you leave time to shout out your patrons who choose to support you. I know you've refined it to be as quick and Blunt as it can be but as a fan I appreciate the phrasings you use because it's not pompous or entitled and it allows me to be eager to continue to enjoy your voice and your videos like a safe space. I hope that all makes sense, I usually get tired of people who just tack on words at the end, but when you do it , it feels inviting and earned. Thanks! Keep doing what you've been doing.

[@Eamonshort1]

I love how positive, thoughtful and sweet the community we have been able to make here together is. Despite how most people here are kinda jaded and increiblly cynical about film, (which is an art we all actually love deeply) we never let that be directed at people undeserving. Like I know it seems a minor thing, but for some reason, comments like this (that are, no offence, not really related to the topic at hand) that show real openness, and as you said, the feeling of being in a safe space, warm my heart.

[@jonathandavis9507]

This is a lot of words.

[@Advent3546]

One of my favorite points of comparison I've seen about Furiosa to Fury Road is that they are a double album. Fury Road is punchy and to the point while Furiosa is messier, more experimental, and more vulnerable because of that. Both sides enrich each other and stand out in their own way. These movies are miracles.

[@5DollarGaming]

That's why I'm excited to be able to watch them in a row at home eventually. Because with this movie now, Fury Road feels like the pay off, just one 2 hour long third act to Furiosa.

@@noahheninger I will agree that the CGI is more intrusive than Fury road's. But this movie looked freaking amazing from beginning to end.

Fury Road is Kill Bill Vol1 and Furiosa is Kill Bill Vol2: slower, more measured with backstory.

[@jmurdock8303]

I think both films are overrated

[@sandonperkins5626]

As an Australian I appreciated how much more explicitly Aussie this was than Fury Road. Obviously being completely filmed in Australia helps, the vastness of Australia's outback is so much more tangible in here and Mad Max 2 than it is in Fury Road (for me at least). I still prefer Fury Road overall as that film feels like a miracle of action filmmaking but this gave me more of what I love about the Mad Max world despite not having Max in it. I liked that the slower pace allowed for more of those purely Australian interactions between characters and it's great that a blockbuster with this sort of tone and confidence in its own world can still be made on this scale. It's a shame it's not doing well at the boxoffice.

[@BR_5499]

One of my favorite characters from “Furiosa” is Tom Burke’s Praetorian Jack. Why is nobody talking about him? He was like just enough of a Mad Max presence to totally satisfy anyone complaining about Max not being in this film. I really enjoyed this movie. It’s not quite Fury Road, but still really good.

[@Palendrome]

I agree he is sort of this strange key to the movie that is extremely understated

[@jussi-pekkaturunen689]

Funny thing, I felt that the character was a bit of remote to really care about the character. I think the strength of that character is that it is actually glue or a passage for the story to build the perfect story arc for Furiosa. I guess it actually shows great writing in the big picture.

[@omegablackzero]

Praetorian Jack puts in perspective that Max wasn't the only road warrior who survived the apocalypse. Different person with different drive yet similar "warrior spirit" as Max. I liked his character, and adds why Furiosa connects with Max, since he probably reminded her of Jack.

[@CobblesteinSwobblepop]

I actually like the Jack character over Dementus, such strong acting from a brutal looking character. His death scene was epic too with the arm reveal as Dementus wrestles with his inner demons looking on...

Best movie of 2024 by far (so far at least). I experienced several moments of euphoria from the visual quality of the film combined with long sequences of action that were (pleasantly) devoid of dialogue. Hemsworth's monologue near the end of the movie sent major shivers down my spine as we're given a whole new level of insight into his character. I agree with the comparison to the recent Dune movies, which felt "very safe" compared to this which felt like the creators took major risks that more than paid off and the same can be said of Fury Road.

[@babyirene3188]

I appreciate your enthusiasm for Furiosa. It is way too long . it's too reliant to CGI . And Chris Hemsworth came close to completely capsizing the movie. He is easily the weakest main character in any of the Mad Max movies . As one would expect he is completely too dimensional at best . And instantly kills the vibe of any scene that has the misfortune to feature him. But if his character enthralled you then my advice is to stay away from the road Warrior movie, far away the strongest entry in the franchise, and infinitely infinitely more intense than any of the other movies . There's nothing grimy about Furiosa . The road warrior is pure grime .

It's hard to gage this movie. Horrible marketing, is it girllboss? Why would I want to see a mad max movie without max?

And why would I want to see more of that character that was already almost a bait and switch in 2015 taking screentime away from the main character, mad max... Just such a strange movie project. Then again strange could mean it actually is someones vision and not a disney remake without sole and completely corporate. Hmmm, good review tho.

[@juan355]

Loved it! This felt like Miller’s Once Upon a Time in the West Feel like it’s the sole great western of the 2020’s and will be re-looked upon for years to come. The Hemsworth character blew me away, there are dimensions to him that caught me off guard. He’s threatening but moreso because he’s unpredictable and nihilistic rather than cold and calculating. His worldview reveal in the finale was profoundly sad.

[@apocalypsetedium]

Good points! Especially the similarity between Furiosa and Conan's journeys. My problem is, as with many current films, the filmmakers love (coddle?) the character too much. And the story suffers as a result. The character has no real arc. She's fabulous vengeance... and that's not a story. The more engaging version is she's broken by Joe, rises in the ranks, doing crime and treachery, earning the vaunted title of Imperator. THEN she can redeem herself, rising like a phoenix in defiance of Joe.There's a ten year gap, so maybe that's in the 2nd prequel.

Hemsworth puts a villain on the screen that is not only out-and-out evil but sympathetic--his parents were murdered too! "We're all victims of the wasteland" seems to be the message here, a powerful one.

She is right about the Dune comparison I felt the same way. I loved Dune 2 it's a masterpiece but it's not as engaging or as immersive as Furiosa. Idk what it is exactly George Miller just knows how to make a super immersive world and movie.

I enjoyed it. It was done in chapters so that makes it appear to have more plot to it.

A couple days after seeing Furiosa I turned on Dune 2 at home. My immediate reaction was "Oh, this is like Furiosa/Mad Max if you stripped away all the fun stuff." I made it about 15 minutes and turned it off. I don't think I'll go back and watch it. I'd rather go see Furiosa in the theater again.
