[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 9394319, member: 12731"] I just watched it: it's not horrible or even bad or anything, but Fury Road is such a masterpiece that my first and foremost summary will be: It didn't ruin Fury Road. That's the highest compliment I'm willing to give. This movie just feels like Netflix version while Fury Road is the Cinemascope, the IMAX grand epic. It's smaller budget, its storytelling is too complicated for the 'Max verse, it's stunts feel less epic, there's definitely a feeling of artificialness where Fury Road blew me away with how real it all looked like...and it feels just unnecessary and redundant. No character pops. Everything that's cool about Furiosa is from the other film. Did we need to learn all these background details about Furiosa? Where her war paint came from (talk about another Max-like figure)? How she lost her arm? The existence of this movie is all about Charlize Theron's performance. Again, at least this movie doesn't sully the other one. I'm not actively sorry I watched it. This is a competent action movie that does not bore me despite its long running time. It definitely deserves ⭐⭐⭐ out of five. But that's still three full stars short of Fury Road, already in '15 deemed "best action movie of the century" 😁 [/QUOTE]
