If you liked Fury Road you might want to reconsider watching Furiosa. While not as good and definitely too long it is still action packed and has some memorable scenes that I actually enjoyed. It's not a bad movie imho, especially if you don't expect it to be as great as the previous one.

It's on my Plex, I'll probably throw it on some night but yeah, a long, self-conscious sequel to one of the most unrestrained movies from a decade ago doesn't inspire much enthusiasm for me. Besides that I just really don't like ATJ

Yeah, you're not missing anything by skipping Furiosa. The drop in quality is shocking. I say that as a huge Fury Road fan. I'm also a fan of Anya Taylor Joy, Hemsworth, and Tom Burke, who I knew previously and enjoy immensely on his show Strike.

The writing, directing, art direction and visual effects are almost B-movie level quality compared to Fury Road. It's like those direct to video Disney sequels to their feature hits. I was so so so disappointed. :(
