    Furiosa a Mad Max story
    Furiosa: A Mad Max Story" is a thrilling addition to the Mad Max franchise, delivering high-octane action and stellar performances. The film immerses viewers in its gritty, raw post-apocalyptic world.

    The action scenes are meticulously choreographed, with intense car chases and explosive battles.

    Chris Hemsworth shines in his role, bringing depth and nuance. Anya Taylor-Joy, as Furiosa, delivers a powerful and captivating performance, adding layers to her character.

    In summary, "Furiosa" is a good movie with good action and good actors. Hemsworth and Taylor-Joy did their roles good. A must-watch for Mad Max fans and action enthusiasts.

    Crippled by poor writing and flat acting by ATJ
    The first half of Furiosa was promising and engaging. By the time you reach the halfway point, though, an unsettling malaise sets in due to heavy degradation of the writing and the realization that Anya Taylor Joy will have (practically speaking) NO LINES to speak. And then, you realize, she isn't cut out for this kind of role -- one that requires face acting (e.g. Reactions, intense emotion, nuanced and unique expressions, etc) instead of dialog -- and somehow she didn't hit the mark. In Queen's Gambit, and some others, she does a fine job of acting with nuance. Not in Furiosa. She mostly has one look, and it's flat. Now, Dinero can pull that off, him being one of the most preeminent actors with the ability to act powerfully without saying a word, just a look. Not so, in Furiosa, for ATJ. Baffling. More baffling that someone didn't catch that in rehearsals and demand fiercer acting. And then the writing. Oh my. What a fail. Not so much in the overarching story, but in the moments where the main characters have something to say. Hemsworth's lines and acting went from fun and curiously clever to flat and silly -- like the second half writing and acting was just mailed in. In my book, Furiosa is a PASS ON IT.
