george miller's follow-up to fury road and this time anya taylor-joy takes over for charlize theron as she plays a young fury osa fighting to return home. While chris hemsworth plays the warlord in her way. Cbc entertainment reporter jackson weaver is with us. It's been a little while since we last visited this wasteland of mad max. 9 years to come and excited about this and made a splash I can confess last week. This is a prequel. Where does this whole story start? >> You did a really good job of explaining. Right at the beginning we are going back into the suggested story of fury osa we learned about. Touched on just briefly and fury road. In that movie she wanted to go back to this dream place cactus wonderful oasis in the post-apocalyptic australian outback. Here we are seeing why she left and how she needs to overcome so many issues of vengeance, of war to get back there. As you mentioned this is anya taylor-joy taking on the role of fury osa but this movie spends a lot longer timeframe and fury road did which is basically 1 long car chase. This is almost her entire life and at the beginning she's that small child, that's also fury osa earlier on in her career or in her life rather and what we see at this very beginning is that evil bad shirtless guy holding the gun's current kris sims work dr. Demento's who gets his on a very young fury osa and doesn't have the best intentions. Have a little clip I want you to take a look and you can see what chris hemsworth does with this character. >> We have here? >> What's your name? Spee tomorrow follow the tracks that brought you here. >> So he wants to take her home may be. Maybe not. I don't think it doesn't look very good for her. But what happens after that is I wore insights between dr. Demento's and martyn joseph scary guy with a respirator you might remember from fury road and as fury osa grows up she learns how to fight for her life and this whole movie similar to fury road and so many of these other mad max movies we seen going back to the seventies are all about the action. We have a little copy of that I want you to see what the high-octane thrill ride actually looks like. So I don't know if you noticed 0 lines this whole movie anya taylor-joy has maybe 30 lines through the entirety of this film. It's very silent calgary action-packed. Very shooting very draggy. >> It all looks and sounds exhilarating. As we've come to expect from george miller but nothing all that new and I'm curious how is furious a different from we already seen in this mad max world? This of course is the first mad max movie without max following a different character for the first time but you hit the nail right on the head. This is a hero's journey just with a slightly different hero. 1 thing that is different about this is me get a journey that's much more about humanity in a weird way. This is very hopeful film and I got to speak with the creator director writer george miller about that message in that film. Take a listen to what he says about what fury osa is all about >> Of course is intentional because I think that's what happens in the world, that even and we see it in our own lives. Received in the lives of our families and communities, our nations. This contradiction of who we are very this way. Are we doomed to keep fighting wars and have aggressions against each other. Or is there hope. >> That's a pretty ambitious lofty goal for a movie about pop fuels guys named scrubbers things like that. But what this movie does so well is even if that message gets a little bit messy we still get all of the beautiful world building miller is famous for. >> Such an incredible world building. Time for the star review. How does fury osa measure up? >> As I mentioned, it's ultimacy or but so beautiful so exciting. 4.5 out of 5 stars. This is not something you want
