After enjoying Furiosa in IMAX: Without a doubt, it's a magnificent visual spectacle where the action and cinematography are elevated to a very high level of intensity. However, many of the characteristics that I consider memorable from the previous film, I lost in this adventure.
This time, George Miller presents us in the midst of a power struggle between the group of The Citadel, led by Immortan Joe, and their confrontation with Dementus, leader of the Biker Horde, a violent and opportunistic nomadic group. In the midst of all the agreements, betrayals, and much violence, is Furiosa, who, after being kidnapped as a child, tries to survive and find her own path.
Although there's only a 30-minute difference between "Fury Road" and "Furiosa," there's a lack of intensity throughout Furiosa's five acts that make the film feel quite long and, at times, even tedious. I'm left with an unfortunate feeling that many of the events are mere excuses to deliver a framework that contains the fabulous choreographies where the speed and action undoubtedly shine, but it doesn't meet my expectations, possibly too high to enjoy this installment on multiple occasions.

"Jim Henson: Idea Man" shows us the trajectory and work of the revolutionary and visionary artist known as the mind and personality behind the Muppets. With a wide variety of interviews, supporting material, and great admiration from director Ron Howard, this documentary provides us with information that goes far beyond the creation of Kermit the Frog and his group of puppets. It's a journey through the motivation, relentless work, perseverance, and great talent of a character who, along with his wife and team, always sought to surprise, innovate, and change the possibilities that television offered.
Jim Henson is undoubtedly a pillar of creativity and positive artistic attitude in recent years, and his legacy will be indelible not only for the relevance of Sesame Street for a generation of children or the cultural phenomenon that the Muppets brought to millions of viewers. He is also a source worthy of admiration and inspiration in a world where everything may seem already defined.
