Rating: 5.0
The Best Post-Nuclear, Action Film Ever to Hit!
Mel Gibson is so young looking in this film, and so handsome! Wow this film is so full of action and even on a low budget you can't beat Mad Max!WARNING POSSIBLE SPOILERS!The film is about Austraila in the outback perhaps. It's in the Post-Nuclear future, a town is being threatened by a ruthless bicker gang lead by the infamous Toecutter. It's up to what's left of the police to stop them!Our hero Max Rockatansky (Played brilliently by Mel Gibson), pursues the Nightrider, a member of Toecutter's gang, on a high speed chase. When Nightcutter dies, the outraged Toecutter plans his revenge on Max and the entire police elite. He starts off by picking off Jim Goose, a fellow officer and friend of Max's. Johnny, a young lacky of Toecutter's, sets a trap for Jim. Jim gets very wounded when they set him on fire. Max visits Jim in the hospital and is angered and horrified at what the evil biker gang has done to his friend. Max then does the wrong thing by resigning from the force and decides to spend some time with his wife and young son where the bikers are nowhere to be found.But no, that doesn't stop Toecutter from wanting revenge, it wasn't enough to burn Jim, he had to pick on Max too! But this time he does something almost worst then the last time. This time these victims were innocent. He runs down Max's wife and infent son, and kills his son while his wife suffers massive injuries to her internal organs and has to have both of her legs and arms amputated. God hasn't Max suffered enough already?!Now Max is clearly pissed off and gets out his police uniform and starts his vengence spree.SPOILERS END HEREThis is a very good low budget movie. I love the hair styles, enough though it was made in the late 70s, the hairstyles looked 80s. Cool. If you want to see a very young Mel Gibson, then buy this movie or rent it! Mad Max is so awsome!
