'Furiosa' Struggles with $31M-$35M Memorial Day Box Office Despite Strong Reviews
May 24, 2024, 09:53 PM
The much-anticipated film 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,' directed by George Miller and starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth, has finally hit theaters. The movie serves as a prequel to the 2015 hit 'Mad Max: Fury Road' and explores themes of humanity and survival in a brutal world. Despite high expectations and strong reviews, including an 89% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a B+ CinemaScore, the film is underperforming at the box office, with a projected four-day opening of $31 million to $35 million, making it the lowest Memorial Day weekend opening in 41 years. Chris Hemsworth's portrayal of the villain Dementus has been particularly praised, while Anya Taylor-Joy's performance as the titular character has drawn comparisons to Charlize Theron's iconic role in 'Fury Road.' The film's narrative and world-building have been noted for their depth, although some critics feel it lacks the relentless pace of its predecessor. Overall, 'Furiosa' has been described as a contemplative and imaginative addition to the Mad Max franchise.
