UHD Review Mad Max – UHD Review (1 Viewer)

[Sam Posten]

Max Rockatansky (Mel Gibson, in only his second credit) is a veteran police officer in the Main Force Patrol (MFP), one of the last vestiges of law and order in a near future world that is in steep decline. Filmed in the Australian outback and coastal Melbourne, the desolate landscapes could be anywhere in a world turned to desert. Max and his fellow MFPs are mostly concerned with stopping the loonies from racing across Highway 29 in suicidal death trap vehicles, and they use high octane pursuit cars to get the job done. One local gang of punk knucklehead bikers is lead by Toecutter (Hugh Keays-Byrne, who played Immortant Joe in Mad Max: Fury Road). When Toecutter attacks Max’s family and burns Max’s best friend alive, Max joins the world in going crazy.
Max becomes vengeance incarnate and settles the score with the biker gang, one by one.

Excellent - thanks for the review. I'm a fan of this and will be ordering it.

I think I might hold out for a new version. If the audio is that lacking, maybe enough complaints will spur a new edition down the road...pun intended.

I watched this theatrically on release, and that will do for me.
