Original title: Anno 2020 - I gladiatori del futuro
Comment: Call it Spaghetti Max.

Others comment: Woah! I saw a D'Amato flick and didn't even know it! Here, sleaze cinematographer turned director D'Amato let his long-time writer/actor George Eastman co-direct this odd-ball post apoc flick. I can't tell whether it is all that good or bad for the life of me. I'd say you'd think it's one not-bad Italian post-apoc flick if you are used to this genre.

A landmark in modern animation, this tale of a rebuilt Tokyo taken from Otomo's 2,000 page manga of the same name is as astounding visually as it is disturbing on a historical level.

Kaneda and his friends race souped-up motorcyles through modern Tokyo, built in the remains of a nuclear explosion 30 years earlier. Entanglements with student rioters and a rival motorcyle gange lead them to a shadowy government project that might reveal the city's long-buried secret.
