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. In a self-destructing world, a vengeful Australian policeman sets out to stop a violent motorcycle gang. "Mad Max" is an Australian movie from over 35 years ago and it was the big breakthrough for Mel Gibson, here in his early 20s. The multi-talent that becomes 60 next year has starred in an uncountable number of films since then, won many awards, including 2 Oscars for "Braveheart", and was among Hollywood's biggest names until his demise a while ago. Gibson is probably among the biggest Australians in film history, just like Mad Max is one of the most known Australian films. The writer and director is George Miller and he has a pretty unique body of work. Mad Max is maybe his most known work, but if not, then it would be the animated penguin movie "Happy Feet", for which he also won an Academy Award. Miller turned 70 this year, so he was in his mid-30s when he made "Mad Max" and just this year, he returned to the franchise and made a really successful (with audiences and critics) new installment called "Fury Road". The title character is not played by Gibson anymore, but instead Tom Hardy took over. At least Gibson played him in the 2 sequels back in the 1980s.<br/><br/>But back to this movie here: It is not very long, only 90 minutes without credits and has Gibson play a police officer in a world run by crime and vicious motorbike gangs. One of these is lead by the mysterious Toecutter and he is also the main antagonist in the movie. They keep committing crimes all the time, rob people, murder other people, rape women etc. Ruthless criminals. Things get personal quickly. When a fellow police officer who tried to arrest them is almost killed and mutilated for life by the gang, Max decides to retire from the force before his anger drives him either mad or makes him a criminal as well. But the suffering isn't over as the next targets of the gang are Max' girl and their child. This is too much for him and his bloody, ruthless revenge cannot be stopped anymore and in the last 15 minutes, he really unleashes on the bad guys. No mercy. All in all, a pretty good atmospheric movie with no real moments of greatness nonetheless. Still, I recommend it and it got me motivated to watch the sequels soon perhaps and also the new movie. thumbs up. Mad Max was alright. I mean, Mel Gibson was excellent as Max, and I love a movie where there's a character named Jim Goose. There was a problem though. Not a big or serious problem, but just an easy to spot one. And that is the fact that Max didn't really get "Mad" until the very end of the movie. Up until then he just acts like a normal guy. Also, I think the sequel was better (The Road Warrior), but I don't count this one out. It was very good and is worth watching. One does not expect to find references to Bertolucci in a action movie distributed by American International, but Mad Max is no ordinary action movie: it's a B-movie classic on the order of Truck Stop Women, and when its director, George Miller, steals from established filmmakers, he steals from the best. [15 April 1980] 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 Did You Like the Movie full movie in hindi free download mp4malayalam movie download Transformers: Zonetamil movie dubbed in hindi free download Episode 1.44the The Postman full movie in hindi free downloadthe Episode 1.64 full movie in hindi free download hdBehind the Orb-Ball full movie hd 1080p download kickass movieEpisode 1.115 tamil pdf downloadA Word from Your Sponsor in hindi downloadMighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie telugu full movie downloadDownload Star Trek full movie in hindi dubbed in Mp4
