Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (George Miller, 2024). Will write about this for Friday. Meantime: There is much that slays, even if a sense of letdown will likely be widespread. It would be great if the title character were more than a well-turned-out mannequin occupying space within Miller’s dance of chaos. That is not a slight on Anya Taylor-Joy, although Chris Hemsworth comes out with the lion’s share of goodies.
