On par with Fury Road, but I hope it does well at the BO. Man this summer has been bad, only Dune 2 did well in March and even that could've done better in any year before.

Debating whether I should see this today or tomorrow instead. I just don't feel like rushing through things this Saturday morning. I mean, it is Saturday. I shouldn't have to rush through things in the morning like it is a weekday or something. We'll see. Still going to make an attempt, but if things don't go as smoothly this morning, then I'm not going to force it.

Decided I'll watch it tomorrow instead. Might regret that later, but feeling too laidback this morning. Don't feel like going through the stress of getting ready, driving, finding a seat, etc.

This was pretty damn good overall, easily the 2nd best 2024 release I've seen so far just behind Dune. The highlight for me is definitely Chris Hemsworth, he's delightfully evil as Dr. Dementus and gives quite possibly my favorite performance of his to date. Anya Taylor Joy does a nice job as Furiosa, as does the young actress who plays her for a decent portion of the movie. The action sequences are expectedly stellar and exhilarating, as is the sound design that'll surely receive nominations (for someone his age, George Miller directs the fuck out of this). It also does a nice job with expanding this world and making it feel larger.
These are more mixed aspects rather than outright negative, and these didn't detract too much from the overall experience. The middle section when Hemsworth is not on screen I don't think is quite as engaging as the rest of the movie (but a terrific action scene prevents the pacing from coming to a complete halt). It's definitely not the same movie as Fury Road, but it does get a little heavy-handed with the callbacks to it. Also, I think it's a bit of a step down from Fury Road visually, there are still plenty of superb visuals and the cinematography is great, but there's also some occasional jarring CGI and green screen usage that doesn't quite blend. All in all, it's not quite as good as Fury Road but that was always going to be tough to beat, this is a worthy addition to the franchise. 8/10

Cinema is dead. RIP. Lazy bums will watch it on VOD and knowing WB it'll be out in a month.
