Fury Road was a big commercial and critical hit, but regardless of its qualities, it's impossible to see it separately from the big 80s revival that happened last decade. In that sense, it's not surprising that Furiosa bombed. The 90s are enjoying their time in the spotlight again, the 80s are back to their former cheese and kitsch.
The CG and green screens are a little annoying, the styling is kitsch and pretty laughable and the action scenes aren't all that impressive. The story is also pretty boring and the runtime is beyond acceptable. There's some cheesy fun to be had here, but other than that it's a ridiculously expensive vanity project that has no place in modern-day cinema.
