    Which was worse? Biker Boyz or Torque?

    Well im to noob to do a poll but would still be keen to hear which people think is worse? Personally I couldn't stand torque, Who jumps their only bike up onto a train?? Also i like how the bike tyres switch from slicks to knobblies every time they go off the road, kinda like in mission impossible, wonder were I could get a set of those babies, they must be worth a pretty penny!

    Haven't seen Biker Boyz, but Torque was phenomenally shit.

    Actually it was phenomenally beyond crap. Biker Boyz wasn't all that bad. Not the best but definitely better than Torque.

    Torque was WAY better than biker boyz which was incredibly shit.

    Oh he's such a good racer, can go in a straight line etc.

    At least on torque you see them getting a knee down etc.

    Yea torque was actully physically painfull to watch, I dont mind a bit of suspension of disbelief here and there in a movie, but for torque you'd need a full on brain removal to enjoy it! I also wonder how many people movies like this have indirectly killed by encouraging stupid little dickheads who know NOTHING about riding bikes to go out and try some of that shit on their brand new race bike that mummy and daddy just bought for them after deciding they must have on on seeing the movie?

    edit: torque was TRYING to head in the right direction but then they took it WAAYYY to far

    I didn't think Torque was that bad, at least there were nice bikes in the movie, and a storyline.

    Biker Boyz, on the other hand...

    The last 5 minutes of Torque was actually a cartoon. They ran out of money for Special Effects, and made it into a cartoon.

    At least that's what I remember anyway.

    I think that was because they were going soo fast that reality was blurred and they had entered a parallel "cartoon" dimension . At least thats what I got from it it seemed to fit with the 'realisim' of the rest of the movie LOL

    Parallel Cartoon Dimension eh. Sounds very similar to "la la land" where fairies and leprechauns have parties lol

    .....If only there was a way of quantifying how shit a movie really is.....

    According to IMDb, Torque (3.4/10) is shitter that Biker Boyz (4/10).

    Yea I thought i saw a fairy getting sucked into that jet bike at the end but i thought NOO thats just to far fetched... even for torque. LOL

    I like that even IMDB says: "When the speed bikes get off road, you can clearly see that they're in fact two strokes dirt bikes and that they're covered by a fake fairing so they look like sport bikes." They could have tried a LITTLE harder.

    IMDB does not provide meaningful data.

    Rotten Tomatoes (which collates reviews from critics who publish online) is better:

    Torque got a 23% rating.

    Biker Boyz got a 22% rating.

    Let's face it, they're both thoroughly horrid movies that do not deserve to have time taken out of one's life to watch them.
