Rating:
A somewhat muddled outing for Mad Max. The world building of Bordertown and its surroundings was great. The Thunderdome fight sequence was fun. I actually didn’t mind the second act even though it was a bit of a departure from the usual tone.
The biggest problems for me here is that Max’s character just… isn’t. He bounces around from plot point to plot point, without really being anyone. He’s a pushover when needed, empathetic when it suits the plot, etc.
Then the big chase scene felt more like it was something out of Wacky Races than a gritty, post-apocalyptic universe, and I’m not particularly sold as Tina Turner as an actor (although the closing song was perfect.)
