Rewatched The Road Warrior tonight. So I guess I’m doing this. Guess I’m rewatching all the Mad Max movies.

MAD MAX MOVIE MARATHON

CLASSIC REVIEWS

(REVIEW ORIGINALLY FROM 2022)

I re-watched Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1981)

Possibly one of the greatest sequels in film history. This is what people think of when they think of Mad Max.

After getting revenge on the gang who murdered his family, Max Rockatansky has headed off into the wasteland, only to stumble upon a gas refinery and a struggle between those who have it and those who want it.

Road Warrior opens with a succinct explanation for Max's story. We get more understanding of what has happened and what is happening to the world. It explains the gasoline wars and the desperation for fuel.

Quickly the movie heads into a really great car chase, setting up where Max is in his wandering, and what he's up against out in the wasteland.

Very few movies are this immediately cool.

In the first film it felt as though the wasteland and the gangs were bleeding over into what was left of the civilized world. In the Road Warrior we are in the wasteland. It is brutal, it's is harsh and it is without remorse. Max has grown a bit cold since we last saw him. In the first film he worries that being out on the highway could turn him into one of the crazies. In this film he is well on his way to being one.

George Miller, the director, gives us a sun drenched world, strange looking characters and some great action sequences. Miller made the original Mad Max for almost nothing. Here he's been given a budget, which he uses expertly.

With an interesting story that pertains to the world building, Mel Gibson as a great lead, and just some of the most unique weirdness out there, Road Warrior has been copied and ripped off countless times. It is, in fact, the quintessential idea of the wasteland.

It's just an awesome movie top to bottom. A classic.
