Furiosa Review


A film directed by George Miller, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga keeps its momentum throughout. The film is power ball of adrenaline that climbs the ladder to an apex of excitement and entertainment. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga grasped my attention deeply. The heightening tones of suspense unravel in sequencesand although I enjoyed Mad Max: Fury Road more, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga still killed it.

The film focuses on the original story of Furiosa (played by Anya Taylor-Joy). Furiosa fell into the evil hands within the film’s apocalyptic world–the warlord Dr. Dementus (played by Chris Hemsworth). Furiosa is navigating the uncharted territory of the wastelands. The citadel is in the hands of Immortan Joe (played by Lachy Hulme). Politics and corruption in the wastelands are heavily apocalyptic. Furiosa is on her own and must fight for the new lands. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga keeps its continuity on par with Miller’s style of direction. Miller uses less dialogue as many of his films have an emphasis on stylized action sequences. 

The film feels two-sided and then four-sided with Miller’s direction of cutting the film is into acts. This approach makes Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga feel more like a theatrical stage experience of a vast land putting itself back together with some boundaries in mind.  There were no boundaries in Mad Max: Fury Road, only continued on the path of action and road rage. Those two elements are in the depths of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, but it keeps combining a storyline.

The depictions of road rage are heart-pulsing, as my IMAX experience made me feel shaky. I felt the action sequences were stuck in my chest, conveying just how invigorating the film is in that format. The film has apocalyptic writing and a creative dynamic with a mix of good and bad. It blew me out of the water.

The story brings its audience to different environments of periland the vibe is rigorously antagonistic. It is a wild adventure where the world of danger and the impending apocalypse only adds to the adrenaline rush. It makes its audience think much more. With Furiosa as the center of attention, much of the film’s upbringing is her environment. Miller’s direction keeps up that flow of the moving parts of importance. That is why the acts of many moments serve a stellar purpose in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

With only thirty lines of dialogue, it contains the equivalent of a half-an-hour worth of words. The action is the focus. Miller’s belief in speed influences more than the road rages the battles, The mayhem never stops and Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga throws its punches to the core. It does in a way that the moments stick with its audience. 

With the dynamic of antagonistic characters, the concept is conquered land. Evil having establishments is written and it creates an emphasis on the long road of survival for Furiosa. The tracks of finding roots to what was lost are obstacles filled with surprises. The technological aspects in the mind of Miller are hardcore. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is a new Mad Max adventure with more foundations. The mayhem continues in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. Three-and-a-half out of four stars.
