Miller is such a wildly inventive filmmaker that it’s been easy to forget that he keeps making movies about the end of life as we know it. It’s a blast watching his characters fight over oil, water and women, yet while I’ve long thought of him as a great filmmaker it’s only with FURIOSA that I now understand he’s also one kick-ass prophet of doom.
Nobody does emotionally trenchant, character-driven, nitro-powered action like him. There is, once again, an astonishing standard of stunts and visual effects sustained throughout these 148 minutes, that must be seen to be believed. After 45 years in the business, George Miller is still showing everyone how it’s done. What a privilege to witness him.
FURIOSA runs on a high-octane philosophical perspective that finds hope in a hopeless place. Also, a lot of cars go fast and shit blows up. It’s a win-win.
George Miller paves the way for FURY ROAD with one of the greatest prequels ever made: Rather than reaching for - and failing to clear - the impossibly high bar that he set for himself, Miller has chosen to do something even crazier and more rewarding. He’s created a symphonic, five-part, decades-spanning revenge saga so immense and self-possessed that it refuses to be seen as the mere extension of another movie, even though it manages to deepen the impact of FURY ROAD at every turn.
