Also, this is the only PG-13 Max movie, so if you don't like nudity or a lot of rough language, this is the Max film for youStands Fine on it's own It's a funny thig about the Mad Max Trilogy, with me with each one I'm left saying that's the best one. Mostly because all of them are good in their own right. Beyond Thunderdome is different from the other 2 though. Instead of most the action taking place with cars it takes Max to Bardertown where he has to make a deal with it's ruler "Tina Turner" inorder to get his car back. He finds himself having to fight Blaster in Thunderdome, a giant cage where 2 men enter and one man leaves. When Max refuges to kill his opponent he's sent to a desert to dye. After passing out and being nearly dead, he's rescued by these weird natives that believe he's a pilot named Walker. They believe he can flly them out of there to a distant city.
Beyond Thunderdome gets a little corny when Max meets the natives mostly because they're annoying it's pretty obvious he's not the Walker fellow although he looks exactly like him. The natives and their home most likely inspired Spielberg for the look of the Lost Boys and their village in Hook though.
This film probably has the best look of the 3 and possibly more Science Fiction too. Plus it does have the usual car duals at the end where Max fends off the natives from the Barder town freaks. The action in that scene is fantastic by the way. Die hard Max fans will probably like this one the least, it's different from the other 2 but it still stands very well on it's own. It's the lightest but it's still sexy, has the most imagination and it's action is pretty damn good too. Now if only it had a better dvd, "hint, hint", lol.
En totale, rent this to polish off your Mad Max experience, it is about the equivalent of the third Alien movie. Just be warned, no one in this movie wears pants, except for Max.
