Witnessed “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga”!
This movie, which easily surpasses “MAD” and even past “FURY”, is at its “MAX” (masterpiece)! Ever since I saw the first film when I was 16 years old, George Miller has saved me, encouraged me, and changed my way of life countless times. He is… pic.twitter.com/RRzNolzofq— HIDEO_KOJIMA (@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN) May 10, 2024
FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA is grand in scope, epic in scale, and rich in character and world-building. A wonderful companion piece to Fury Road that builds off of it and enhances it while simultaneously creating its own identity in the process. Exceeded my already high expectations. pic.twitter.com/9ReWfxJnrD

Furiosa is an absolute triumph. not just one of the best prequels ever made (it complicates and deepens Fury Road at every turn), but also an immensely satisfying revenge epic in its own right. movies: sometimes they’re great!
