Directed by Brian Trenchard-Smith, written by Peter Carey and Peter Smalley, produced by Andrew Williams.
Average viewer score of 5.6/10 from 125 ratings.
Starts by ticking you into thinking it's going to be one of the 47 million _Mad Max_ rip offs that was released around the same time, but quickly takes a left turn into "poignant social commentary". Keeps the punks though, so that's cool. _Final rating:★★★ - I personally recommend you give it a go._
