Everything that the first "Mad Max" should have been and more. However, while the first movie had a grittier and more dramatic tone, things are more cartoony and tongue-in-cheek here, probably to match the overblown presentation and campy costumes. Call it style over substance, but the art direction and action sequences manage to carry the film brilliantly even four decades later.
My major complaints are, again, the soundtrack (unfortunately, the same guy from the first movie is back), and the main villain’s voice, which kind of spoiled the character’s threatening appearance.
