Mad Max 2 (1981)

In the post-apocalyptic Australian wasteland, a cynical drifter agrees to help a small, gasoline rich, community escape a band of bandits.

Superior post-apocalyptic action thriller with colourful characters, great landscapes and well-staged action scenes.

Halliwell*: "Not much more than a retread of the above [i.e. Mad Max], but a more expensive, spectacular and violent one."

Maltin***1/2: "Far less original script-wise, but trend-setting visual design and some of the most unbelievable car stunts ever filmed make this equal to, if not better than, the first one."
