Described as one of the best prequels ever made

Can it be? How many best prequels do we have? Certainly not better than Butch and Sundance: The Early Years lol

The average rating is always more indicative of the overall quality of the film and because of that very high 8.5(which is a really great sign) I feel pretty confident the overall percentage will go up to the 90’s.

‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’ Review: George Miller Paves the Way for ‘Fury Road’ with One of the Greatest Prequels Ever Made

Whether "Furiosa" is even better than "Fury Road" is less important than the obvious fact that it makes "Fury Road" even better than it was before.

You can see how much this meant to Hemsworth, he’s visibly chocked up with the reception the film got. His performance has been getting a metric ton of praise too. Great stuff. 👍👍

Critics Consensus
Retroactively enriching Fury Road with greater emotional heft if not quite matching it in propulsive throttle, Furiosa is another glorious swerve in mastermind George Miller's breathless race towards cinematic Valhalla.
