Watched this horrible flick a few days ago. Here is my review, as posted on Amazon:

"I am a biker so this movie looked attractive to me, action, bikes, chicks and all that... Silly me, I was fooled.
Too bad they make you give one star. This film sure doesn't deserve it. The only, and I mean only mildly entertaining features where Michael Madsen riding the bike with the ape hanger handlebars. He looked incredibly stupid and out of place, you would have thought the director made him use that bike, just to make him look like a moron. Well, success! The other thing that helped the movie were good looking chicks. Yes, they had some nice boobs on show, but you you are a sad person if you need this movie to see boobs. Finally the artwork with respect to the gang regalia was pretty cool. Now now... I have been pretty nice. Sorry, but the rest is pure and utter vomit inducing garbage of the highest caliber. The acting was crap and the script was rubbish. Ok, my advice is this, don't touch this film with a ten foot pole, unless seeing Madsen make a jackass of himself turns you on."

That makes me want to go out and get it just for the laughs. There are heaps like that out there; 'Wild Angels', 'Chrome and Hot Leather' and 'The Glory Stompers' to name a few. It's gotta be tongue in cheek, surely? I doubt any of the crew were anywhere near serious.

A good biker movie? Not sure, but I think the best appearance on a bike of any sort was Rocky the Rooster in 'Chicken Run'. It's more of a love story that one but Rocky? He's cool.

For a good biker movie, try Freebird.

Not really a biker movie, but its got lots of bikes in if that makes sense. Watch the movie and you will understand.

Just checked out the trailer on You Tube. This also looks like a bit of a crackup. Ah, the things to watch on wet Sunday arvo's.

It will become a cult movie, just you wait and see!
I have no interest in seeing it now BTW.

I saw it a few nights ago. Thought it would be a good-un - with Michael Madsen in it it was bound to be.

How wrong was I.

A couple of cool bikes in it though.

You might enjoy it, but only after a few beers.

Neil Morrisey from Men Behaving Badly, and his blood lusting killer 74 Norton 850 Commando

I spent my time watching it, halfway between screaming with laughter:lol: and howling with tears, you really need to see it to believe it, or not!!

Yes, they had some nice boobs on show.

:lol::lol::lol: You've just sold at least a dozen tickets to KBer's with that statement alone! :lol::lol::lol::lol:

i personally though hell ride wasn't to bad, seen many worse. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0411475/

Some nice old indians & harley's thru out the movie.

Far better than the freebird move that someone else mentioned earlyer.

Sure its bad but still worth a watch with the boobies, the wrestling, the wings tatts, the killings, the fights, the bikes, the way after watching it 4 or 5 times it still doesn't quite make sense...

Another enjoyable watch thats gonna be added to my list is 'Ghost Rider'.
I saw it for the first time on TV2 last night.

OK its cheesy, REALLY cheesy buuuuuuut from the opening moments I was hooked cos his stunt bike is a Buell X1!!!!!! woohoo!

The next thing that really appealed was when he whistled for his badass Harley and it started up and roared on over to him...loved that!

And when he staggered to the grave yard the next thing ya hear is the unmistakeable voice of Sam Elliot.

SAM ELLIOT!!!!!!! Only one of the sexiest men alive...

Yep all in all Ghost Rider was a bloody entertaining movie...:yes::love:

Me too. Why didn't someone tell me Eva Mendes was in it? She has a woman's bottom. With a waist.

10th June 2009, 06:58
I didn't know who she was but yep I agree she had a good figure...a REAL womans figure...but I think she buys her shirts a size too small LOL...

ooh ooh nearly forgot...Peter Fonda was the devil...very cool!

BTW it wasn't a criticism. She definately knows how to make the most of her assets.

Speaking of eye candy...wow I never knew Nicholas Cage was so CUT! Nice...very nice.

Hell yeah, that's one fine fine woman, the only good thing about the movie Ghostrider that's for sure.

Yes indeed.

Fucken Ghost Rider almost made me puke, regardless of the Buell.

At least Torque is tongue in cheek and Biker Boys had some good stunts.

HD and Marlboro has gotta be the best though

At least compared to [so much anticipated] torque, ghost rider and wild hogs...

Wild Hogs-more than any movie probably helped sales of Harleys to slump,even prior to recession.Good for laugh,but ignore the bike scenes with the leads in.

Wild Hogs was GREAT!! It wasn't a bike movie... it was a comedy with bikes in it... thoroughly enjoyable!

Does anyone remember the Australian movie 'Stone'?

Saw it about 25 years ago but can't remember whether it was worth looking out for again.

Edit: Maybe not.

Wasn't worth it - full of crappy Jap bikes...:whistle: and corny acting...

I see what you mean about the acting but it might be worth it just for the bikes.
