Furiosa received a warm welcome following its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, landing a six-minute standing ovation for the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mad Max: Fury Road prequel. The enthusiastic reception came as the first glowing reviews for the new movie arrived, including our own 4-star 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Furiosa review.

Per , during the standing ovation, Furiosa star Anya Tayloꦯr-Joy "blew kisses into the camera" and Dementus star Chris Hemsworth "looked teary-eyed". Director George Miller addressed the audience briefly and said: "We worked very hard on this film, and it’ll be very interesting to see what you make of it. Thank you for having us."

. It currently sits at 88%, based on 40 reviews, which only falls behind Fury Road in the franchise’s scores on site. Our review writes that Miller has "done it again" with the new prequel. "This action franchise set in sun-blasted sandscapes is evergreen," our verdict concludes. "A special place in Valhalla awaits George Miller."

’ Manohla Dargis writes that "M༺iller is such a wildly inventive filmmaker that it’s been easy to forget that he keeps making movies about the end of life as we know it... It’s only with Furiosa that I ♍now understand he’s also one kick-ass prophet of doom." 

Meanwhile,  calls it "a searing film that refuses to play by any of the tried, tested, and tired rules that franchise films follo🌠w."

However, not everyone was so keen on the late𓃲st action adventure. Kevin Maher of : "A thundering beginning and a searing sense of place f💫ail to compensate for the wearisome repetition and empty theatrics that slowly swamp this much-awaited blockbuster."
