The budget was higher than Fury Road? Why did the whole movie look so cheap then?
Not sure we saw the same movie if you think it looked cheap. Some very specific shots had some iffy CGI, and for some reason those are in the trailer, so I'm wondering if that's all you've seen?
Here is my reply from a few weeks ago after I had watched the movie:
Watched it over the weekend and was rather underwhelmed. It felt “cheap” compared to Fury Road. The CGI was quite terrible in comparison, especially when they showed some scenes from the last movie during credits. It’s just so obvious they paid less detail to the effects and it seemed like a significant decrease in their use of practical effects. Add to that some of the effects were just plain bad. AND worse of all
Tap for spoiler
They skipped the final fight scene completely!Also there was just too much talking. Fury Road was great because the world building was done without extra dialog. Furiosa just felt like any other Hollywood film with nothing special at all.
