This a dystopian future Australia while the world is collapsing all over the world and just prior to everything going complete apocalyptic. The 2nd movie [The Road Warrior] and beyond the world is post-apocalyptic. So no police, no normal laws and governments etc. As an aside, criminals even post 96 don't abide by laws such as gun bans, so criminals would still use guns. Though most guns in this series are revolver pistols, single shot rifles [bolt-action] and non semi shotguns, so possibly not conflicting with the specific law you mention about semi-autos. Though like I said, this is all during and after a apocalyptic breakdown and war involving the entire world.
Fun fact: the gang that hunted Max was an actual biker gang from the area. The budget wasn't big enough to hire actors so the producers paid them in beer. So I've heard...
Mary you should watch the classic "A Clockwork Orange" starring Malcom MacDowell.
Consider reacting to the 1979 movie "The Warriors" about a New York street gang trying to get back to their home turf.
@jeromejimenez4844 oh that's a good one!
The reason they aren’t dressed as regular cops is because the film is mid-apocalyptic. It takes place while society is breaking down during a massive energy crisis. That’s why the police headquarters is a mess, why they have to constantly salvage and rebuild their cars, and why Charlie ends up back on duty even after his throat injury. They are also wearing leathers because that is traditionally the uniform of highway patrol officers in the 1970s in the US and Australia.
Very well put, more of a distobian future.
I like to call it "cusp-apocalypse"
I did read it's only dystopian because they could only afford to rent empty buildings with barely any furniture and the only way they could explain it was to say it was a break down of society. Otherwise it was going to be just a standard revenge Cop film.
Yes. And this film is right in line with 1970s films like Dirty Harry and Death Wish. The 1970s coming on the heels of the Civil Rights movement of the 60s saw courts hamstrung by new legislation which was allowing provably violent criminals to walk free due to technicalities. Today, the officer's testimony along with the woman's statement and the physical evidence would be enough to convict Johnny the Boy. But in the 1970s judges would likely have dismissed the case if the victims failed to appear or if it appeared that ANY of the accursed's civil rights were violated. And average people were sick and tired of seeing goons who bashed grandma's in their head to steal their Social Security checks turned loose because the cops knocked his teeth out when he was caught. And audiences would stand and cheer when Charles Bronson would shoot a purse snatcher in the back. Today, we'd think that a gross over reaction to a petty crime. But the 1970s was a time of intense violent street crime and people were just sick and tired of it.
Real reason , low budget movie and to use real looking police uniforms and use real looking police cars needed pile of permits , that cost money 🙂
Police act 1990 sect 203 , it's an offense to wear a police uniform and insignia or to drive a police vehicle , even for a police officer who is not on duty .
I love how the movie is trying to depict a future in the midst of social decline, and Mary's like "Yup, it's just the regular 70s in Australia." 🤣
The best thing about this film is that it shows a society in collapse - not one that has already collapsed. Somethings are familiar and others are completely alien. I especially love the psyches of the people. If you notice, the "police" aren't much saner than the bikers. Everyone is sliding down into madness with the world.
Much like today lol
And then there’s still the chill engineers lmao
This film is more effective by not showing everything, just making us imagine it in our minds. Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior is definitely worth watching
Mad Max II was seen in the US first, then we saw this one
@@williamjones6031 Speak for yourself mate
@@shoujahatsumetsu I just did. everyone I knew at the time said the same thing.
mad Max 2 is up there with Terminator 2 and the Godfather 2 with the best sequels of all time
Mad Max 2 bdsm party
Movie fact: Hugh Keays Byrne who played the Toecutter also played the main villain Immortan Joe in Mad Max Fury Road 36 years after the original.
I did not know this.
"They violate her?" Why do you think he was bottomless? They were both violated. The town bike, everyone gets a ride. Civilisation is collapsing, and law enforcement is obsolete. This is just the origin story, Mad Max II is the best of the trilogy. (Fun note, the woman who played Zhaan in Farscape is in it.)
The 1981 sequel, "The Road Warrior" (aka "Mad Max 2" in Australia), is a true masterpiece. Thematically, photographically, and action-wise director George Miller puts it all together to create a gem of an action film with even more memorable villains.
Use a different synonym other than masterpiece. Everyone tosses the word around and means nothing no more
As a kid the first time I saw Mad Max 2 I nearly bawled my eyes out at the state of the interceptor in the opening sequence!
@@beachesandhose2374 not sure why you feel entitled to tell other people what words they can use to describe a movie.
Yeah, this is one where the sequal is as good as the first one.
Not crazy about the third one, Thunderdome, though. The soundtrack - We don't need another hero - sung by Tina Turner, who also participated in the film, is great.
The fourth one, without Mel Gibson, is a bit better but that doesn't say much.
In America, Mad Max 2 was simply titled "The Road Warrior"
An Australian watching an Australian classic. Excellent!
Albeit a wannabe-American Australian
@@_Some_Guy_ She'll grow out of it. I wore an American baseball cap as a fad we went through.
Leather isn't just for style. For motorcycle riders, it's safety equipment. If you go down, the leather gets the road rash, not the rider. Motorcycle cops have usually have some leather as part of their uniform. (Always boots, sometimes jackets, occasionally pants, depending on the jurisdiction.)
I kinda scratch my head when they don't. Leather is as important as a helmet, IMO.
Fun fact: in professional motorcycle races (Moto GP, etc.) they use a particular type of leather that is lighter and stronger, which is made from... Kangaroos.
@@lichstein7972 The good stuff is always roo hide. Knew a guy back in the day that made leather armor for LARPs and the SCA. He showed me how big a difference there was between cow and kangaroo, and there's no contest. Kangaroo hide makes the best bullwhips as well.
@@lichstein7972 kangaroo is the absolute best quality riding leather
I wouldn't say it prevents it, it just lessens it.
@@kiillabytez Yep, exactly , an it looks super cool too !
Fun Fact!
The ending where Max leave the guy chained with a hacksaw was a direct inspiration for the first Saw movie.
It was directly ripped off in the Watchmen graphic novel too. They changed it for the movie though.
Your reaction is really interesting. I don't know anybody who saw it at the time it came out who didn't realize that it was set in a post-apocalyptic time. Even after it was over and you read the synopsis you seem to think it was set in 1970's Australian countryside instead of sometime in the future.
I read somewhere that the setting for Mad Max was that in some areas society and law and order still functioned, but the forbidden areas was where chaos and gangs ruled. The only police that still operated in these areas were almost as run down as the bikers, and they bent a lot of rules to create a semblance of a still functioning world. In Road Warrior, society had COMPLETELY collapsed.
It's simpler just to say that in Mad Max society was ending and by Mad Max 2 it had ended.
And Beyond thunder Dome and onward was just a lawless wasteland.
According to Miller, the nuclear war happened beween Road Warrior & Thunderdome. RW was just normal collapse, & not nuclear war.
I am so glad that you have gone back to the beginning of the franchise to watch the original Mad Max trilogy with Mel Gibson. My first exposure to this post-apocalyptic universe was via Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior, which was simply known as The Road Warrior when it came out. After seeing that film, I wanted to know Max's back-story and this film is where it all started. You have seen what Max has been reduced to in Mad Max (4): Fury Road, now you will begin to understand the painful journey that led him to that level of disillusion and desperation.
I can't wait to see her watch Mad Max 2! And I personally enjoyed Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. Fury Road was dope too. Loved seeing it on the big screen.
And that Captain America "Language!"? The cherry on top (no pun intended).
- Yeah that was pretty good. My personal favorite was the "OH MY GOD!" bit, I nearly peed I laughed so hard, instantly in my head all I could hear was " SONOVABIITCH!!"
Part 3 is pure garbage.
Part 3 was not bad part 4 was worse because there was not really a full story to be told it was just one big chase that ends we’re it starts
Assuming she ignores the intro text again - "Why are they fighting over one fuel truck? It's 1981, they can just drive to the nearest city and fill up"
"whatever i say, what a wonderful philosophy you have" absolute gem of a line.
A good one to start on. Something to keep in mind is the world this is placed in is falling apart. The police are also falling apart with the rest of the world. That's a key part of the series. The whole world is falling apart. Hope you cover Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior.
Random trivia: the police official holding the kendo gear was nominated for a screenwriting Oscar for adapting Breaker Morant. He went on to voice Dominar Rygel XVI in Farscape.
And the actor who played Toecutter had several guest appearances I. farscape.
"I'm a rocker. I'm a roller. I'm an out of controller"
"I'm hotter than the rolling dice"
AC/DC
This sets up one of the best depictions of a Post-Apocalyptic world with each film just getting crazier with how civilization looks. Road Warrior and Beyond Thunderdome are by far my favorites because 80s Post-Apocalyptic films were so grimy looking.
Toecutter is Australian legend Hugh Keays Byrne. Who also played immortan Joe in Mad max fury road sadly his last movie.
He played a Bikie called Toad in the 1974 movie Stone. I like to think this is the Toecutter before he went completely psychopathic.
George Miller has proven to be quite a diverse director. From the extremely action packed and hyperviolent Mad Max films, he went to the kid friendly Babe and Happy Feet films (I assume, as I haven't actually seen them), and this year he's shifted genres again with the mixture of romance, fantasy and historical drama, Three Thousand Years of Longing.
Oh, I just realised that it wasn't his first dabbling with fantasy, as he also directed The Witches of Eastwick.
I forgot he made Babe
The sheer speed and some of the stunts captured on film in the original Mad Max are fking spectacular and life threatening - still one of the most dangerous looking movies ever made - that scene where Max is right up the arse of the Toecutter’s bike is one of the craziest and most daring stunts ever.
One of the stunt riders breaks his neck on the bridge scene and died.
@@dancarter482 No, that's an urban myth.
I'm glad you started at the beginning. This is an amazing zero budget film.
it had a budget of $400,000 AUD. Not quite zero.
Budget was so low that the blue van totalled in the opening chase? That was George Miller's, not from a movie vehicle company.
@@Mikebusternot much tbh
The world of Mad Max doesn't really come to full fruition until the second movie "The Road Warrior," which is great! This movie is very good, but I always think of it as the prelude to the real story going forward. Wild and brutal world ahead.
Recently rewatched Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome Really enjoyed it now than first few times I saw it many years ago. PLEASE CONTINUE With this franchise!
This is my favorite of the Mad Max movies, as it has so much going on in the story. Not to mention how great the movie holds up to this day with the budget they were working with. I know most people like Road Warrior or Fury Road more because of the cool custom cars, but to see how it all started with the collapse of society and descent into anarchy is so underrated.
One thing to warn you about if you embark on watching the series:
- Actors get re-used but they play different parts, it seems to be a bit of a calling card for the series for some reason.
- The third one (Beyond Thunderdome) is quite different. I didn't like it at first but it grew on me.
This series was supposed to be a two-part storyline.
"Mad Max" illustrates Max's descent into madness. "The Road Warrior" shows him on the road to redemption.
Mary seems to have completely missed the detail that the film is set in the future, and that society is mid-collapse. That's why the cops are working out of a run-down station and why laws are barely enforced. It was funny how she kept saying "Was that what Australia was like in the '70's? It's so different today," lol.
Mad Max was "Mad." Chaotic and wild film for sure. Nice reaction Mary. Filming took place in and around Melbourne. Many of the car chase scenes were filmed near the town of Little River, northeast of Geelong. The early town scenes with Toecutter's gang were filmed in the main street of Clunes, north of Ballarat; much of the streetscape remains unchanged.
Mary, you should watch "The Road Warrior" starring Mel Gibson. It's the most popular out of the series.
Fury Road was excellent too!
Give it 5 or 10 years and Fury Road will be the most popular of the series.
its fun listening to an fellow Aussie react to this like when you said i wouldn't swim there could be crocs & stop revive survive so funny 🤣🤣🤣
I loved your reaction to this one! I saw it on TV in the early 80s and became obsessed with the whole trilogy. And I love how they show the transition from one society to another.
Since you're Australian watch Wolf Creek 1 and 2. It's a movie about the dark side of Australia's outback when a random guy named Mick Taylor kidnaps 3 backpackers and tries to hunt them down with a buck knife and a hunting rifle.
Nice reaction! Yes, please continue with the rest. They are all great apocalyptic films. They keep on getting even better.
For me MM3 is the weakest of them all but still enjoyable. It's worth it for the Thunderdome alone.
The director, George Miller used to be an emergency room doctor in a rural Australian hospital so the injuries (like the ones Goose was describing) and medical scenes are very realistic and part of the inspiration for the movie. The next movie in the series, in the U.S. it's called "The Road Warrior," there it's "Mad Max 2," is great, "Beyond Thunderdome isn't bad, and "Fury Road" is phenomenal.
Referring to police officers as cops evolved from the term cop which is short for copper, which is what people thought their badges were made from, here they just adjusted it to bronze.
So happy to see you review this. You are the first one I have seen review this. Came from Ashleys channel.. ANd my wife and I are gonna go through many more of yours. Its an amazingly wild film. And your reactions were exactly what Mine at least were.. when I saw it in the theater on a midnight movie, I think.. back in the early 80s. Before the second movie came out. Wild ride for sure. Oh yeah.. Dystopian future. Filmed in the 70s.. but in the future.. or A future.
The brown thing hanging from the tree was the dog and the bird that you called a Magpie was a Crow lol Are you sure you're an Aussie? lol Always good to see the 1st time reactions for Mad Max. It's even funnier when Americans watch it for the 1st time.
Regarding how the cops were dressed: I don't know anything about how Australian cops dressed in the 70s, but this movie always gave me a sense of being a kind of near-future/alternate timeline kind of vibe where civilization is kind of collapsing; when you see their hall of justice (or w/e) it's all dilapidated and the sign is falling down, like they lack funding, and then even when they catch one of the crooks they can't prosecute them because no one shows up for the trial. So society is breaking down, lawless gangs are spreading all over, and these leather-bound guys in hot rods and motorcycles are like the last line of defense trying to maintain some kind of order. And then when Max loses first his friend, then his wife and child, he himself abandons all sense of rule of law and goes on the rampage himself. I think that becomes the symbol of the entire franchise, the thin thread of what makes us human and civil as everything goes to hell.
I'm so glad you're starting from the beginning. Cause that is the way to watch this so you get an idea of Max's background and where he's coming from. It's a wonderful franchise.
Continue with the franchise.
On a related note, you might want to also check out another legendary Australian dystopian horror film known as TURKEY SHOOT (1983). Massively controversial reputation in its homeland, but overseas, it's a deep-cut cult classic.
Great reaction to a cool movie! You're one of my favs and are STUNNING. I look forward to seeing you watch the rest of the saga.
It was very enlightening and entertaining to see an Australian react to this movie. Learned a lot 🙏
I am enjoying the new inserts in this reaction, too funny.
Can't wait for Mad Max 2. One of the greatest action movies of all time.
I can't wait to see you react to the rest of the Mad Max movies, especially the third one!
As for the lack of blue uniform, proper police station, etc as others have said it's because the movie is set during the the collapse of their society so 'normal' rules and regs don't apply because there's just a general scarcity in most things that we rely on. It was such a refreshing thing at the time (and kind of still is?) to see a movie set DURING the collapse of society rather than after, and especially to show it on a smaller scale compared to the big showy Hollywood style
Great Reaction Video to a magnificent action film ‼️
Thanks for the entertainment 🤣✨
I love the Night Rider’s little crazy monologue in the car. 😂
“I am a rocker, I am a roller! I am an outtacontrolla!! HAHAHahaha!!!”😜
RIP.
I saw "The Road Warrior" first as a young kid, so I didn't like this one as much, watching it several years later, because TRW was such an amazing film. Having watched all the Mad Max movies many times now as an adult, I can really appreciate this film, and the context in regard to the later movies. It gets better with every watch. The mid-to-late 70's and early 80's were all about high speed car chases and wrecks.
Dramatically speaking, this is probably the strongest of the Mad Max franchise and really speaks to how much the right director can do with very little in the way of resources when they have to. The follow up, The Road Warrior, is the film that really got the franchise off the ground though and I feel like the remaining movies are all increasingly more interesting as a whole than "Mad Max" was and kind of unintentionally ended up birthing a genre of copycats of widely varying quality during mostly the course of the 80's.
I'm glad you started with the first movie, so you can see how this franchise evolves with each iteration. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you make of the remainder of the franchise.
You really can tell that the budget for each film went up as they came along
An Aussie who's never seen what is possibly the most famous Aussie film franchise of all time.
Yes Miss Cherry, please continue the rest of the franchise. Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior is still one of the best movies I've ever seen.
Mary, thank you for reacting to this classic of Australian cinema. Yes, I know it's rather savage and brutal at times. It is certainly very raw and uncompromising. By the way, something went seriously wrong in that car and motorbike collision on the bridge over water near the end of the film. There was an accident during filming. It's a fair chance that it was likely that slow motion shot of a bike hitting a rider because that looks incredibly realistic. Though the great thing is that the stunt man walked away.
".it's okay not to be alright though.." Great words of wisdom Mary. Thank you. 🤩
Great reaction to a classic Down Under B movie that gave birth to a Franchise, Mary!
When Mad Max was released in the US, the Distributor decided to dub the movie in 'American' English because they thought the audience wouldn't 'get' the Australian Slang terms or Australian diction. I'm glad that the powers that be have seen the error of their ways, and have made the Original version the one now widely available.
You're in for quite a ride... can't wait to see your reaction to "The Road Warrior"!
"... Now to do the job, I'm gonna need 5 gallons of Diesel, and some high octane Gasoline."
9:44 She was the town bike...she gave everyone a ride.
Technically this movie takes place in the mid 80s, right as civilization is about to crumble
Remember? In the very opening of the film:
"In the not too distant future..." I think they meant it literally. It was called the Hall Of Justice, so I'm thinking there are no regular police and these guys are all that's left to fight the dregs of society.
Next Sunday, A.D., if you will.
Ms. Cherry! The film was released in 79.. but set “a few years from now.” and the world was/is falling apart. And the police all had the same uniform on- leathers over a light blue tee. Enjoy the ride!
NO SPOILERS
Good Reaction Mary, I was old enough to see this movie at the cinema in the Uk, back then comics depicted this future of a lawless society where cops had absolute power of life over death, stories like Judge Dread ect, comics had very violent content in the late 70s so when this movie came out it brought it to life, you had to start here with this movie to understand Max’s motives but the Mad Max franchise really starts with Max Max 2, Fury Road remake takes its look and aesthetics from MM2.
Personally MM2 is my favourite movie it’s a very action fast paced hell ride and your gonna love it I’m sure.
This film still has its feet in the 70s exploitation / grindhouse genre, but in the subsequent films the franchise essentially evolves into its own action-adventure sub genre gradually leaving behind that 70s vibe. The franchise reaches its full apotheosis in Mad Max Fury Road, but the other films are definitely worth watching!
A completely perfect movie. Definitely want you to take the journey of Mad Max
Hi Mary!🙂It is supposed to be the near-future in a dystopian society where the resources are starting to run out.
“The chain in those handcuffs is high-tensile steel. It'd take you ten minutes to hack through it with this. Now, if you're lucky, you could hack through your ankle in five minutes. *Go* “
Holy fucking shit, that quote and ending gave me goosebumps. It’s easily one of best revenge and badass moments I’ve ever seen. Also Max hunting and systematically destroying and killing Toecutter and his gang of psychopaths is just so satisfying. Justice at its finest. I mean they killed his wife and infant son, his little boy. He did nothing wrong in my book
Mad Max 1 and 2 are some of my favourite films, they are absolutely timeless masterpieces
Omfg lmfao at the French Fries insert! 🤣
I love that you bothered to watch the original. Most reaction channels just watch the new one and miss out on what in my opinion are the real (Mel Gibson) Mad Max movies! You should definitely watch Mad Max 2 (The Road Warrior). I think it was the first Australian film that became an international success and it was the film that launched Mel Gibson as a movie star (internationally)! Mad Max 2 is iconic and what the new Mad Max movie was inspired by (ripped off).
As it was the same director(?), he ripped himself off? ;)
@@arnaudgerard1971I was kind of kidding... but it was like he took the final truck chase from Mad Max 2 and turned it into an entire movie. Mad Max: Fury Road was technically a good movie but the story was inferior to Mad Max 1 & 2 and while I didn't dislike the actor who played Max, he was no Mel Gibson and character was reduced to a secondary role with minimal dialogue, in many ways the character felt more like a "grown up" version of the feral kid rather than Max. I've grown to like Mad Max: Fury Road but it will never be my Mad Max and I strongly recommend people watch Mad Max 1 & 2 (& maybe 3) before or after they see Fury Road. Don't just watch Fury Road and think that is Mad Max because it kind of isn't...
Good reaction! I just saw Mad Max for the first time myself last year, and it's very interesting to get a take from an Australian on a legendary Australian film. I'm gonna join the chorus, though, and wonder how you didn't get that Mad Max is set shortly before dystopia hits. 🙄
But yeah, aside from that, if you've already watched a few Mel Gibson films, you may have noticed that almost all of his roles have at some "Mad" Max Rockatansky in them.
Thank you for watching the older mad max movie. I watched this movie at 10 years old, and i loved it. My eyes were staring to the tv 2 hours long or so.
14:26 -- Mary, the NYC police officer uniform for winter is a leather jacket with patches and the badge.. You might not be used to it, but over here we are..
The director was an emergency room doctor, and worried as one to finance this film. Not only that, he crashed his own personal car in this movie 3 different times, in 3 different places, just to make it happen. So much respect. Inadvertently created the Saw franchise with the last scene, as well..
Trivia: the actor who plays the Toe Cutter changes his accent every so often to make the character seem even more insane
I'm really needing you to see the Road Warrior. That's my favorite of the series
The actor who plays Toe-cutter later plays Immorten Joe in Mad Max Fury Road
I remember watching this on TV when I was a kid many years ago and it immediately became one of my fave movies and still is. The beauty of the story, is they tease in the earlier part of the film that Max is becoming more and more at home within the carnage, but the one thing keeping his humanity is his family, once that is gone he basically becomes the monster, he's the judgement sent to deliver vengeance to Toecutter and his gang. Even in parts of the slower driving scenes with no dialogue or music, there is chatter over the radio in the background from his MFP superiors now seeking him and the stolen Interceptor, he basically has left all semblance of his humanity behind.
That's also what makes the sequels of The Road Warrior and Beyond Thunderdome satisfying is beyond the insane action, is basically the story of a broken person helping others and slowly regaining his humanity, yet still wandering the wasteland alone, almost like that's his penance for the decisions he makes.
Considered Ozplotation. Many great Australian films of that era. Wake in Fright, Road Games (with Jamie Lee Curtis), The Man from Snowy River, Walkabout... Don't wait to watch the rest of the series.
This being an Australian movie, and you being Australian, I can't wait to fully watch this 🙂
Road warrior next please!😎😁❤️💛
"Cundalini wants his hand back" is a line that made it to the playground.
ITS REALLY CUTE YOU THOUGHT THIS PORTRAYED 70S AUS :)
Toecutter is one of the rare truly intimidating movie villains. Comparable to Kurgan from Highlander and Stansfield from Leon, for example.
26:31 - Note that none of the guns in this movie were self-loading, so by that definition they would still be legal even now. The shotgun in the movie was a double-barrel break-action. Each barrel can fire once and then the user has to put another shell in.
There is a brief scene where we see Bubba with a Mauser pistol. Thats the only semi-auto in the film that I remember.
@@clearsmashdrop5829 ok
22:41 i wasn't expecting Joseph here XD
Still my favorite movie. I have watched it so many times and never get tired of it. I love the rest of the series, especially Fury Road, but I always love watching this one.
For another genre movie set in Australia, I'd suggest Roadgames (1981), a Hitchcockian thriller directed by Richard Franklin. A truck driver (Stacy Keach) travelling across Australia, along with the help of a hitchhiker (Jamie Lee Curtis), seeks to track down a serial killer in rural Australia.
I'm glad you're watching the version that doesn't have Gibson's actual voice overdubbed.
The first film shows Max's descent into madness.
The sequel shows him on the road to redemption.
"Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome", started off great, but didn't end well.
Would love to see you review more vintage Australian films from the New Wave! Especially "Petersen" and "Picnic at Hanging Rock."
Please keep watching the series. The world's spirals further into chaos. You might even consider playing the video game because it is actually Canon and explains some of thunder road.
I was obsessed with these movies when I was a kid in the 80's. Typical little boy I guys cool cars & explosions. I think you should continue on with this franchise although I'm not a fan of the "Thunder Dome" movie I know other people that really do enjoy it so I think you should check it out. Fun fact when I was a child I lived down the road from a guy that owned a mud bog truck called "Mad Max". I have alot of stories about that truck. Fun reaction for me to see an Australian watch "Mad Max" for the first time. Thank you Mary!!
Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior needs to be next, that's the film that defines the rest of the series, post-apocalyptic road movies. Good stuff!.
Even though the third one isn't as good, it's still fun, and MM: Fury Road is a masterpiece, all Max movies are great tbh.
With out doubt watch the complete set of Mad Max movies. Each stands well enough on its own as a movie but together they are magic. Road Warrior is next and provides a great deal of context for the setting of the series of films. Fury Road, the most recent movie, is spectacular. Thunder Dome is Mad Max goes Hollywood but still really good. Very happy to see you react to this.
Please watch the rest of the Mad Max series. It gets even wilder!! Great Reaction!
The ending to this has to be one of the most hard core, roughest scenes in cinema, and I'm all on his side
On the way to 200K !
👍👍👍👍👍👍 i think you need to rewatch this movie, seem like you were behind on everything going on and didnt connect on to much that was happening ..??.. video editing on point !!! 👍👍😁😁
Hoping to see the Mad Max 2 review soon. For me it's the best of them all, with the best Max, the best villain, and the best stylistic choices
Road Warrior is one of my fav action movies. Please continue the series!
When I watched this and Max 2 the bad guys creeped me out and then I realised they were pretty cool :-)
It's set in the future, it's a post apocalyptic film and franchise. The villains are overly psychotic to represent society falling apart due to limited resources, even more so in the later films.
