Sinopsis(1)
En los anales del cine de acción, pocas películas pueden compararse con Mad Max 2, una historia épica de máxima acción que te transporta a un paisaje de ensueño donde un futuro post-nuclear confluye con un pasado mitológico. Mad Max 2 es también una proeza cinematográfica, una de las más excepcionales películas que jamás se hayan realizado. Antes de protagonizar Arma Letal e interpretar en 1994 el papel de Maverick, Mel Gibson se convirtió en un mito en la historia del cine interpretando a Max, el héroe solitario que viaja por las carreteras despobladas del interior de Australia en una interminable búsqueda de gasolina. En un mundo post-apocalíptico donde la ley y el orden han desaparecido, luchan contra él y los otros habitantes de un campamento con aprovisionamientos de combustible los salvajes guerreros liderados por "El Humungus", célebre por su violencia y por no dejar con vida a sus prisioneros. (Warner Bros. España)

Una impresionante película de acción postapocalíptica que te hace sentir el omnipresente polvo en tu propia boca. Localizaciones perfectamente elegidas, trama dinámica y de fuerte atmósfera, acciones únicas con coches. Sigue siendo una clase mejor que la muy buena primera Mad Max. Salvajes de autopista. ¡Lo que daría por verla en la gran pantalla!

Desert, cars, trucks, petrol, blokes dressed badass… all things I don’t like, but I still I expected some decent entertainment from the cult Mad Max, a film that set the slightly clichéd template for pretty much every post-apocalyptic film. I didn’t get it, unfortunately. I acknowledge it as a strong source of inspiration, but otherwise, it’s weak, very weak.

Two years after the success of his breakthrough debut, director George Miller returned to the Mad Max character with a sequel that completely redefined the concept of the post-apocalyptic world in popular culture and, furthermore, set the bar very high for action spectacle. The Road Warrior became a phenomenon whose style and success dozens of other productions around the world tried to emulate. But no one has been able to bring such an abundance of raw energy to the screen, nor has anyone succeeded in inventing such a fascinating microcosm of relationships. The post-nuclear future meets the myths of the past as Miller brings elements of the western to life with the aid of roaring engines and rampaging savages clad in leather and rags in a world where a drop of gasoline is worth more than a human life.

I prefer minimalism and anguish of the original over the overdone and loud action in the sequel. Though George Miller defines the post-apocalyptic genre in its essence and thus opens the doors for dozens of successors, it only answers the question for me of why I don't look for adventure in similar places.

Unlike the first film, the director "bothered" to outline at least a little bit of the vision of the post-apocalyptic world. It's nothing groundbreaking, and a rough cut of war scenes from documentaries is the easiest way to go. The script is also certainly not groundbreaking, and thus the pile of clichés may not be to the taste of the contemporary viewer and even the more tolerant individuals will struggle to swallow the overly theatrical dialogue. Fortunately, all of this is balanced by completely unique action sequences, which are unthinkable to film nowadays because some of the special effects numbers would make Hollywood insurance people throw a fit. Cinematographer Dean Semler excellently shot a vast desert wasteland and dusty trajectories trailing behind the cars are literally pouring from the screen onto the audience. Mel Gibson stepped up in the lead role and the soundtrack isn't quite as annoying. The cheesy B-movie aspects have shifted to a crazy romp (the costumes were stolen by the filmmakers from an S&M parlor!), yet it has no dead spots from first to last minute and watching it is actually perverse fun.
