In a self-destructing world, a vengeful Australian policeman sets out to stop a violent motorcycle gang. In a dystopic future Australia, a vicious violent biker gang murder nicknamed the Nightrider, a cop's family and make his fight with them personal. He escapes from police custody by killing an officer and stealing his vehicle. Max pursues the Nightrider in a high-speed chase, which results in the Nightrider's death by fiery explosion. Following the dangerous chase, which resulted in injuries for a number of officers, the police chief warns Max who thinks nothing of it at the time that now the bandits are out for him because of the death of the Nightrider. The biker gang, which is led by the Toecutter plans to avenge Nightrider's death by killing MFP officers. Toecutter's young protegé, the biker Johnny the Boy, sets a trap for Max's close friend and fellow officer, Jim Goose. When Goose's vehicle is flipped over, the bikers burn him alive in retaliation for the Nightrider's death. If for no other reason, see this movie to get an introduction to 23-year-old Mel Gibson, with only three credits to his acting portfolio. One was a small spot on a popular Australian TV series and another was wholly uncredited until years later.<br/><br/>Unfortunately for American Gibson fans, his voice was dubbed for the American release of this film, but it does not take too much from the production.<br/><br/>Fresh out of acting school, with very little experience, his acting quality left a lot to be desired, but it has a huge cult following, due to the fast-paced action, the heart-felt sentiments, and the total lack of taste this movie reflects.<br/><br/>In the genre of sci-fi, you'll find yourself asking where the science is; but in the field of action, it fully satisfies. This movie is a lower "B" production, complete with "B" grade performances, effects and story, but the appeal is undeniable. I am a huge fan of the "Mad Max" movies and am looking forward to the 2004 release of "Mad Max: Fury Road." <br/><br/>UPDATE: The 2004 release of Fury Road never happened. It appears that with the phenomenal success of Gibson's latest effort, a horror/fantasy entitled, "The Passion of the Christ," his "lesser" works have been scrapped.<br/><br/>On the "B" scale, this movie rates a 6/10.<br/><br/>That's about a 4.2/10 on the "A" scale from…<br/><br/>the Fiend :. TRIVIUM: I recently learned what a "toecutter" is – according to William Gibson (in _All Tomorrow's Parties_), it's a criminal who specializes in extorting other criminals, typically through physical torture. Also known as a "standover man".<br/><br/>As far as I'm concerned, this is the best movie of Miller's career. The editing was superb, the score incredible, and the two worked together in ways that even high-budget movies seldom achieve. John Woo and Quentin Tarantino chauvinists could get their eyes opened a little to the possibilities of traditional sound and editing by studying this film.<br/><br/>All the film-school nonsense aside, the story is powerful: The evolution of Max the family man, who does an unpleasant duty without malice or joy, into "Mad" Max the 'road warrior', who roams the highways like a wraith seeking revenge for his murdered wife and son (so hauntingly evoked by the recurrance of his wife's saxophone theme in the score). It gives you a chance to see a good pre-star performance from Gibson, and some excellent supporting work by Joanna Samuels and Hugh Keyes-Byrne ("the Toecutter").<br/><br/>I give it only an 8 because it's as close as can be to impossible to find copies with the original actors' voices on it. Who in their tiny tiny mind thought it would be a good idea to overdub an english-language movie with KUng-Fu Theatre voice talent? Though the plot is that of a simple revenge western, director George Miller infuses the film with a kinetic combination of visual style, amazing stunt work, creative costume design, and eccentric, detailed characterizations that practically jump out of the screen and grab the viewer by the throat. Yes, Max's boss mentions that "Goose bought it.". The Doctors talking about Jesse are convinced that she will die because her injuries are severe. The doctor instructs the nurse to re-assure Max that Jesse will be pull through. However, Max was right outside the room and overheard them talking about the extent of her injuries and that she won't survive. Basically no, but there is one version with two audio differences; the first being the original Australian accented soundtrack and the second being the American dubbed soundtrack.<br/><br/>Apart from dubbing the entire movie because Americans might find Australian accents difficult to understand, "Mad Max" in North America was completely the same cut. The original Australian dialogue soundtrack was released for the North American DVD premiere in 2000. The Night Rider probably experienced an acute onset of depression because he'd finally met an opponent who might catch him or matched him for driving ability. Also, he probably felt he couldn't escape. It actually adds another element of humor to the scene.<br/><br/>It is also likely that he was relying on his reckless nature as an advantage to outmaneuver the police. Along comes an officer who beats him in a game of chicken, and who is also driving a patrol car that can catch up to the one he is driving from a dead stop, and he knows that he isn't likely to get out of this alive. Max' wife mentions that he has been on the news several times, it is also possible that Nightrider recognized the notorious Max in his rearview mirror. Barring all else, Nightrider is shown to be quite psychologically unstable, screaming like a lunatic in nearly every shot in which he appears. Merely losing the game of chicken may have been enough to damage his fragile psyche to that degree. "A FEW YEARS FROM NOW…" but a specific year is never mentioned and so the exact year is left ambiguous, with signs of society breaking down. The film was influenced by fuel shortages in Australia in the mid-1970s due to the 1973 OPEC Oil Crisis, which led to several violent incidents throughout the country. No. It's an original story by director George Miller and his writing team. However, it's believed Miller did base it on riots that took place in 1970s Australia over fuel shortages and the muscle car culture that was popular back then. The UK theatrical version was cut in one scene . This version was used for the old VHS by Warner from 1986. All other VHS and DVD releases are uncut. Approx. 50 seconds are missing in this version. The title could have a double-meaning, some viewers interpret Max as Mad-angry, while others find he is mad-crazy. Both interpretations could be correct. Throughout the film Max tells his boss that he feels that he needs to quit the Bronze because he's starting to enjoy the carnage and mayhem that the job entails. Max feels that if he starts to enjoy it, he's gone crazy and is no better than the criminals. At the end of the film, after his wife and son are run down, Max snaps and likely becomes infuriated at their deaths, which prompts him to seek revenge on the Toecutter gang. After dispatching everyone in the gang, he handcuffs Johnny the Boy's ankle to a wrecked vehicle with a leaking gas tank, he then sets up a fuse, and gives Johnny a hack saw, telling him he can try cutting through the chain or cut through his ankle. Johnny screams at Max, calling him a bloody mad man. a5c7b9f00b Brothers download movie freeChicago P.D. full movie download in hindiDeadpool full movie in hindi free downloadMirai Nikki full movie with english subtitles online downloadBehind the Scenes movie in hindi hd free downloadGhostbreakers full movie in hindi 1080p downloadtamil movie dubbed in hindi free download All 5 Ithindi The Mask free downloadAnacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid movie free download hdTokyo Mater 720p torrent
