It starts strong with a good chasing scene but then it just get's weird and plain boring. The basic synopsis takes the first hour and 15 minutes and then it adds some action at the end with one of the most anticlimactic endings I've ever encounter.

Still a remarkable picture and fantastic action, the remake hasn’t got anything on the original. Mel Gibson pulls off a super performance.

Check to see how much it cost to make this movie. $200K. You try to make a movie this good with that much money with car crashes and explosions. They paid Mel like $15K australian. The Road Warrior was way better, but they had a bigger budget.

It's a very sad movie. Not because of the quality or anything. That's awesome. I mean the plot. Now I finally understand why it's considered a cult movie. Highly recommended!

Who'd have thought we'd still be talking about a $350,000 film, 40 years after it was made? And who'd have thought it would be in a positive way.
_Mad Max_ was one of the most formative films ever released, and not only is **one of** my favourite films, but is chief inspiration to my **actual** fav More

The original _Mad Max_ is pretty easy to boil down to an essence: fast motorcycles, rusty weapons, loud cars and bald revenge. For most of the story, we see Max as the cool, composed vendor of justice; a man who hasn't yet learned to discard the establishment in an increasingly turbulent world. More

It's not often that these dystopian scenarios ever leave the USA, so it's interesting that this one introduces us to the massive expanse of the Australian desert and to the young policeman "Max" (Mel Gibson). His job is pretty thankless - and perilous. He must patrol the remote countryside trying to More

For whatever reason, never had seen the original and doesn't disappoint, some good action and gut wrenching scenes defying the rules of killing pets and kids, Mel Gibson is quite good in the role and look forward to checking out the sequels. **3.75/5**
