The first Mad Max movie that screams "from the director of Happy Feet"
James (Schaffrillas)May 3, 2015A+ for production design, car chases, Mel Gibson's hair, “We Don't Need Another Hero,” and Tina Turner's costumes. D- for turning one of the bleakest franchises in film history into a kid's cartoon, complete with wacky character names, cutesy gibberish language, and lil'…
Matt SingerApr 24, 2021I'm so brave for watching all three of these movies before watching Fury Road.

Now I see why there were two Directors because there’s at-least two movies in here.
Elric KaneJun 28, 2021Problem is Thunderdome's the best part. Should've been "Mad Max: Thunderdome, Which We Stay at Throughout the Movie."

60/100 As I noted on Twitter, the opening Bartertown sequence is my favorite thing in the entire series—it's the first real indication of the go-for-broke insanity that Miller would subsequently employ not just for Fury Road, but (in gentler form, which I've never thought…
Mike D'AngeloJun 21, 2020when I first started watching this movie I was thinking to myself “ok. Mad Max is at the thunderdome. settle in, we’ll be here a while” next thing I know the Mad Max is going way beyond the thunderdome
Colin BurgessMay 13, 2015Probably not a good film, but so imaginative in its own rather particular way I don't really care.

- Sabrina Bondi likedMad Max Beyond Thunderdome
This middle portion of the picture becomes dangerously preachy, but just before we are bored, director Miller returns Max to his roots, a screaming cheese sequence through a desert like Australian landscape. There is also a something to get exited, the presence of Tina Turner.
Aidan White likedMad Max Beyond Thunderdome7.8/10 this was my least favorite of the trilogy by a lot - plot didn’t do it for me and the thunderdome was wildly underwhelming for me - tina turner was great and still had awesome action sequences but i was just disappointed
Gin likedMad Max Beyond ThunderdomeUne évolution du deux avec toutes les idées ambiance de l’apocalypse la course au carburant tout est plus interessant à voir que le deuxième cependant la séquence avec les enfants qui se battent bon rompiche un peu après l’aspect des enfants qui sont à la recherche d’un sauveur
- Ryan Tower likedMad Max Beyond Thunderdome
Fun, outlandish, interesting. different take than 1 & 2. The dome was underwhelming, final chase is peak!! as close to fury road as possible. more flamboyant outfits. Hated the messianic narrative, but good world building. Cast of children make it feel like a marvel movie.
Hardcore Epic Fanboy-Stan-Worshiper likedMad Max Beyond ThunderdomeWhen it comes to these old Mad Max movies; I’m just hoping for them to be funny bad. This movie was definitely less fun bad than the first 2, but it had its fair share of funny bad moments. Overall, I love these goofy, bad, old Mad Max movies, and this one is no different.
Tectash likedMad Max Beyond ThunderdomeRoad warrior was the peak of the original trilogy but I view this one as actually he most insane and maybe most experimental. To me this is like the temple of doom of the series. While definitely uneven and weird I can't help but be entertained by it.
- James New likedMad Max Beyond Thunderdome
Rewatch pre-Furiosa. I like it it’s just weird, you’ve got the Tina Turner villain bit, then off in the jungle, then a great car chase then it’s done. The car chase is the best part & I like the ending a lot too. The rest is so-so, not bad - just odd
Kward0610 lovedMad Max Beyond ThunderdomeExtremely underrated. I love the world building and action set piece at the end. Mel Gibson and Tina Turner. The second act isn’t great but the first forty minutes are truly incredible. I love this movie and the entire saga.
MovieDaddy dislikedMad Max Beyond ThunderdomeNot sure this is where the Mad Max character was destined to go when the franchise first began. Lackluster with a story that refuses to be reigned-in. The word Thunderdome is more relevant than the entirety of this movie.

This is a movie that strains at the leash of the possible, a movie of great visionary wonders.

This middle portion of the picture becomes dangerously preachy, but just before we and Max are bored, director Miller returns Max to his roots, a screaming chase sequence through a desertlike Australian landscape.

It closes the trilogy like a lightning blast followed by the ominous, resonant drone of thunder. Great action sequences crop up frequently today, but great action movies are always few and far between. Beyond Thunderdome is one, every bit as much as its two predecessors.
