The whole Anya Taylor Joy has very little dialogue in this movie report makes a lot of sense after watching. Kid Furiosa I thought did a great job though.

Honestly not a fan of it. The beginning just moved way too slow for me. The set pieces were great but it took too long to get going for my tastes.

#

I’ve only seen a handful of 2024 movies and I think this might be lowest on my list so far.

#

Im shocked also because I loved Fury Road

Is this a me not watching trailers thing and not realizing Anya Taylor Joy didn't play furios a for the whole film?

I figured that we would get a lot of Kid Furiosa once that article came out saying that Anya didn’t have a lot of dialogue. I think for the general audience who watched trailers it would have been surprise to see a lot of the kid version.

I don't know why it didn't click with me, I think on the surface everything is fine to excellent.

#

Great acting, characters, action, etc.

#

Honestly I think one thing I will say is it felt like Furiosa didn't do anything for a while, and I wanted her to be more active

#

Like I didn't feel like she was the center of the story until Chapter 3

#

I think the story is almost too complicated, like I think what makes Fury Road for me is its simplicity

#

And the fact that the story can be told almost entirely without dialogue, this one that isn't the case. The story is richer but at the expense I think of why Fury Road worked

#

I will say the Hemsworth and Taylor-Joy scene at the end, perfection

#

All the acting is good, can't fault the acting at all

#

Me and you having opposite opinions on these two films tracks so much lol

#

I don't know/think it beats Dune in most of the below the line stuff, maybe production design?

dire raptor
#

Nah, this movie makes sense from a story telling prespective

#

I've seen parts of Thunderdome

#

Was okay

#

Liked this a lot but crazy that this ends on a montage reminding you of a better movie

#

Need to watch it again when I’m not struggling to stay awake ppRapLaugh

#

I’m with z on this one I think

bitter pasture
#

Also I was distracted by Scrotus looking like SNL Beavis and Butthead the whole time

#

Interesting. I wonder how much Fury Road stuff I missed because I have not rewatched that in ages

#

I liked furiosa better than fury road ngl

#

Also the next mad max is gonna have a train I can feel it in my bones

#

Fury road was cars this one was motorcycles and whatever the octoboss was flying around in

#

CINEMA IS BACK BBYYYYY

#

I need to rewatch fury road, I think it was probably better but that’s not putting Furiosa down, it’s just Fury Road is SO good

dire raptor
#

Biased as I don't love Furiosa, but Fury Road is for sure better

lone violet
#

It’s such a MOVIE

#

so much happened it was great

#

The acting, chefs kiss

#

The stunts and driving, chefs kiss

#

Did we need a prequel? No

#

Do I love it? Yes

bitter pasture
#

Yeah that’s how I felt

#

This movie was very good the bar was just set way way too high by fury road 😭

dire raptor
#

I think I'll rewatch it, and think about it more as a film not called Furiosa

lone violet
#

Yeah it had some disconnect

#

That said as an origin mythos it works

#

Idk I thought fury road was good but emotionally I didn’t really connect with the characters as much as in furiosa
