Mediocre production by Roger Corman, who has produced

Mediocre production by Roger Corman, who has produced far better films, Warlords of the 21st Century, aka Battletruck looks like a bad rip off of the Mad Max films. This is a film that suffers from a boring plot, poor script, and questionable acting. Usually Corman's films are mindless fun, but with this one, I just couldn't get into it. I felt that it had an interesting concept, but it also relied way too much on the post apocalyptic films such as The Road Warrior. The result is a film that simply doesn't deliver on its ideas. I think that the film simply misses the mark and it should have been much better. Watch Death Race 2000 instead, at least that film was fun, but this, this is a mediocre low budget B movie that fails to really entertain. Unlike other Roger Corman productions, this one is quite forgettable in the long run. B movie fans will enjoy, others may not. Like I said, this isn't the strongest Corman Production. This should have been better. However the cast simply have no on-screen delivery and most of them are pretty bland in their roles. I also felt that the direction was not very good, and in the end, this is a film that wastes its potential of being a highly entertaining B movie, and I think that's a great shame because this film should have been great, like many other Roger Corman Cult hits. Battletruck is not worth watching, and if you're looking for an effective trash film that is fun, and entertaining, you won't find it here. This is mediocre and I didn't like it the way I thought I would. Watch Death Race 2000 and other Roger Corman productions, you'll be glad you did. If you watch this one, don't expect much, as you won't find anything really entertaining here.

New Zealand's contribution to the post-apocalyptic film genre

New Zealand's contribution to the post-apocalyptic film genre has a loner biker waging war against a notorious group of heavies. This one takes place after the 'oil wars' with Michael Beck taking advantage of his brief headliner status in the lead. Average and not as memorable as the Italian films of the genre.

This movie's great! Granted I haven't seen that

This movie's great! Granted I haven't seen that many Mad Maxploitations, but I do really like this one. Story wise it's quite simple but not in a bad way, its characters are memorable and likeable even if not the most fleshed out. And come on… the Truck is f*cking badass!
