‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’ may not have ranked and clinched a position in the top 10 favorites that most people claim, but it is still one of those films for which George Millar has made undeniable contributions in the direction which makes it worth watching. For those people who admired the Mad Max sequels, or just appreciated movies of bright and intriguing visuals, it is advisable to check it out.

Furiosa is my #1 film of the year so far, and I’m so unbelievably disheartened it didn’t make more money. George Miller is 79 years old, and his Mad Max films are singular in style and vision. If George Miller isn’t able to make his next Mad Max film because of Furiosa’s box office, I will never be able to forgive that.

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed Furiosa. I knew it would probably be good, but I didn't expect it to be so great. I don't think it's fair to compare Furiosa to Fury Road since it's such a different film. It's a slower, more somber and contemplative movie. There are so many great details that are easy to miss with just one viewing. And Furiosa does so much more to flesh out the wasteland. It develops the politics, economy, logistics, culture, and power dynamics of the wasteland. I am just really impressed at how much thought George Miller has put into every aspect of this world. This is the kind of world building that I wish every sci-fi/fantasy/comic book franchise had. Disney/WB/Paramount/Universal/etc. all need someone like George Miller as the main creative director behind their franchises.

Furiosa definitely my favorite of the year so far. Legitimately one of the all time great revenge movies in my opinion

I was in the minority of not liking Fury Road all that much, but I truly loved Furiosa.

Shoutout to Argylle and Ungentlemanly Warfare. Cavill having another rough year. Not the most well-crafted movies but had a great time watching them.

Other failures I enjoyed: Furiosa and Fall Guy.

I do think it’s super strange how much flack Late Night with the Devil copped for its very brief AI use but no one seemed to care when Furiosa used it? I don’t have a massive problem with it being used but why was such a small budget film overshadowed by its use but everyone let Furiosa get away with it without any backlash?
