There’s no way ATJ could ever pass as a boy. The fact that she was apparently able to just cut her hair and remain mute to blend in and hide in plain sight for years is preposterous. I can embrace the ridiculous amount of unbelievable stuff in this world for the sake of storytelling and fun but that took me out of the movie for sure. I also didn’t really like how it was edited. Felt more like a bunch of random scenes that didn’t really flow together very well. Fury road was like one long take. Absolutely amazing. This was like a series of short films. Hard to get invested in.
Honestly one of my biggest criticisms is that we didn’t see enough of her life as a boy in the Citadel. Like you say, how exactly was she able to blend in, how did she handle her period, and so on. Would’ve loved a more deep insight into that part for sure.
