He must protect them from the bike gang that is terrorising them whilst transporting their entire fuel supply to safety. IMDB

Review:
This is Mel Gibson at his best!
A very fun and classic movie. Of the three Mad Max movies, this one is my favorite. The acting is good and so are the effects. The story is fun and the movie isn't dragged out like most newer action movies.

This is one of my favorites.
