Review of Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985) by Jack O — 21 Jun 2018
While Mad Max is not post-apocalyptic and I actually think that Mad Max 2 is an post-apocalyptic masterpiece so what do you expect from Beyond Thunderdome? Better than the first and the second or a step backwards? A step backwards.
Many people find the third to be quite s£!t and not very good as the other two but for me I really do like it. I actually found this one to be as good as each other that is to say the first Mad Max. If it's not as good as each other as Mad Max, I don't know what it is.
Right after the epic chase sequence at the second film, The Road Warrior, Max goes across a town called Bartertown where it has camels, pigs, pig s!$t, a dwarf called Master and fighting which is controled by Aunty Entity played by a singer, Tina Turner.
When you decide to go to the fight with your opponents you go to Thunderdome where you can confront you enemies when people chanted "Two men enter, one man leaves." Max has been exiled and sent to the wasteland and went across the oasis with children.
I have to be honest they definitely reminded me of the lost boys from Peter Pan where they live at Never Land where they never grow up. Anyways, that's all I can about it. Now that the theme song which I really love which is sung by Tina Turner who also starred in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.
I can never get bored with this 80's song one teeny bit! It's just something that the atmosphere exists from many places and made me feel like I went to heaven. With all that, that is the end of my Mad Max marathon and the final film of the Mad Max trilogy that is until Mad Max: Fury Road exists with Tom Hardy starred as Mad Max and not Mel Gibson.
It is in fact the last film that Mel Gibson ever to play Mad Max. I haven't seen Mad Max: Fury Road but I will going to in sometime in the near future. I heard that it is fantastic. Anyways, that's it for Mad Max, Mad Max 2 and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.
Beyond Thunderdome is a good movie to end the franchise that Mel Gibson ever starred as the final time, Mad Max Rockatansky.
