AWESOME. If people didn't like the first one, why do they even bother to watch the second? I really liked this sequel and I DO understand the hype about this franchise. And Max is actually one of the best Mel Gibson's characters ever.

When do we go for a ride?

One of the trashiest plots, some of the cheesiest lines combined with outfits, weapons and special effects that are just laughable in my opinion make this one of the worst movies I know...

Why the "Mad Max" franchise and especially this second part are hyped that much I just cannot understand. Even Mel Gibson's performance is poor!

In a world where there is a gasoline shortage and all everyone does it search for gas, how does no one ever run out? Driving large machines and not exactly being fuel efficient you would think at least once.

I just don't understand the love for this franchise.

Not has good as the first time around and nothing on the first film, just didn’t have same vibe and did feel draggy and not much happen.

it truly was a terrible movie, i dont understand how this got a higher score than the first movie (which was great) there were so many plot holes. It really wouldn't have made a difference if max was part of the movie or not. The script was very poorly written and there was no chemistry between the characters. The whole movie was dull and lifeless and a huge disappointment compared to the first movie.

A sequel better than it's predecessor. A satisfying, fast-paced plot along with an engaging premise and intense action sequences makes this a thoroughly entertaining watch.

It just occured to me: The Humungus and Toecutter died similar deaths. Both drove towards the front side of a moving truck. The only difference is that one did it accidently (Toecutter) and the other (Humungus) on purpose. I honestly don't know which is stupider and more lackluster.

It belongs to a select list of films where a sequel outdoes the predecessor. Max Max 2 is better than the first in every way and stands out on its own as an exceptional action film.

Great movie. Just watched it for the first time. Amazing how much inspiration the Fallout series took from this flick.

"The Road Warrior" is a great action movie. The thing I appreciate about it the most is the way that we actually get to SEE the action. So many newly released films are edited with such quick cutting and flashing away to different scenes that I never can get a sense of where and what and to whom something is happening. For example there is a sequence where the director lets the camera follow the bad guys as they climb like ants on Max's tanker. There are also a number of lesser action scenes that setup the lengthy ending chase by familiarizing the viewer with the vehicle and weapons of choice of the baddies. Mel Gibson is also great as he plays the mentally scarred hero with just a touch of humor that's put to good use in his interaction with the Gyro Captain. The thing that keeps me from rating this as excellent is the relatively boring "good guys" (other than Max and the Gyro Captain). I don't know how they managed to hold the refinery for longer than an hour.
