				"You may be raw but 
				you have a badge of purposeful savagery. You give me time, I'll 
				teach you everything you need to know about road war. If you 
				survive everything we take on together, you'll have all the 
				skills you'll need to get wherever you want to go. No questions 
				asked." – Praetorian Jack, to Furiosa 
				Why watch this? 
				Fury Road 
				was an impossible Max re-start. This is it's most compelling 
				character's origin story. 
				Plot Summary: 
				Young Furiosa is kidnapped by the Great Biker Horde, led by the 
				charismatic tyrant, Dementus, who forces her to watch her 
				mother's crucifixion. When Dementus learns of the Citadel, he 
				decided to attack the towering stronghold. It's leader, Immortan 
				Joe, and his army of white-skinned War Boys, defend the attack 
				while Furiosa escapes Dementus and joins Immortan's ranks. All 
				this happens before Taylor-Joy even comes on screen. Dad's Preview: 
				In a 
				post-apocalyptic world of utter madness, George Miller once 
				again cobbles together some of the best storytelling on big 
				screens today. It's bombastic, heart-wrenching, and thoroughly 
				enjoyable to watch. Every scene is choreographed like the finest 
				Sydney Ballet, and the cinematography is breathtaking. It 
				delivers in every moment. Taylor-Joy fills the Furiosa role 
				nicely, but it is Hemsworth who stands out and more than gives 
				this wasteland saga the fun-filled, nasty villain that every 
				blockbuster needs.
