George Miller's original Mad Max trilogy contains some of the greatest action in movie history, but there are some harsh realities of rewatching it.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT George Miller’s original Mad Max trilogy features some of the greatest action sequences in movie history, but there are some harsh realities that arise from rewatching these films in the modern day. The series began with Mad Max in 1979, a police thriller set in a dystopian near-future, before diving into a gonzo, surreal post-apocalyptic wasteland in 1981’s Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior.
8 The Road Warrior Has No Interest In The Consequences Of Violence The Road Warrior is often called a superior sequel, because it’s a lot bigger, louder, and more action-packed than the first movie. Since it’s a more exciting action-adventure, The Road Warrior arguably is a better movie than the first Mad Max film. But it has no interest in exploring the consequences of violence, whereas the first movie was all about those consequences.
5 Bruce Spence’s Dual Casting Is Needlessly Confusing Bruce Spence plays two different characters over the course of the Mad Max trilogy. He appeared as the Gyro Captain in The Road Warrior, then appeared as Jedediah the Pilot in Beyond Thunderdome. There’s no connection between these characters; they’re not said to be related in any way.
