About this movie

In the ravaged near future, a savage motorcycle gang rules the road. Terrorising innocent civilians while tearing up the streets, the ruthless gang laughs in the face of a police force bent on stopping them. But they underestimate one officer: Max Rockatansky (Mel Gibson). And when the bikers brutalise Max's best friend and family, they send him into a mad frenzy that leaves him with only one thing left in the world to live for - revenge! 1979 Kennedy Miller Productions.

Ratings and reviews

I know it's an Aussie classic, but I just couldn't get into this. Slow moving, the low budget sets/locations were distracting, and the costuming felt like... um, cosplay. Just when I thought the movie had finally started, the credits started rolling. Epic for its time, but doesn't work for me today.

TOTAL RUBBISH!!!! This movie feels 2 hours and really slow paced and performance from Mel Gibson felt cheap and there was barely any action. I can't believe i saw this movie and bought this movie on bluray. I Give Mad Max a D

Mad max bloody true blue aussie film new fury road is not going to be the same without mel gibson though.
