In the ravaged near-future, vicious bands of marauding maniacs rule the road, terrorize civilians and laugh in the face of a police force powerless to stop them. But they’ve underestimated a certain Officer Max Rockatansky, and when they brutalize his friends and family, they send Mad Max into a mad frenzy leaving him with only one thing left to live for – REVENGE.
“The film has been consigned to the grind houses, where audiences are responding as Miller wants them to. From there Mad Max will find its way to the film schools and revival houses, where its tough-gutted intelligence may be appreciated.” – Richard Corliss, Time
