Summary

For this week's main podcast review, Josh Parham and I recorded our review for George Miller's "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga" shortly after watching the film at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, where it had its world premiere. Because this was such a large film and we didn't want to leave other members of the NBP team out, we asked those who wanted to contribute their thoughts to record themselves separately and send them in. So, throughout our SPOILER-FILLED review, you will also hear from Ema Sasic and Brendan Hodges. Starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Chris Hemsworth, Tom Burke, Alyla Browne, Lachy Hulme, Nathan Jones, Charlee Fraser, Josh Helman, John Howard & Angus Sampson, the anticipated prequel to the Oscar-winning "Mad Max: Fury Road" finds George Miller back in the desert again giving us another entry in the "Mad Max" franchise. What did we think of the story, performances, action set pieces, and the bonkers glorious craftsmanship on display? Tune in as we discuss these elements, its awards potential, and more in our review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
