Cool flick


I think this movie is good entertainment. I enjoyed it more than most of the other 60's Biker flicks. It has a good story, shows a lot of the real Hells Angels, cool bikes, and cool scenery, to include the old Las Vegas and the high desert. The Angels are not professional actors, but play themselves and don't have to try too hard in this movie. I am a Biker, so I appreciated this movie and got it on DVD on the cheap. There is a good, current interview with the woman star in the movie included and she says some interesting things about working with the Angels.

Yeah I agree, I'm a big fan of biker gang movies, and this movie did its homework, so to speak. Even the slang & biker jargon is spot-on. A lot of old biker movies looked like they used crappy props to attempt to look authentic, but these guys are wearing real leathers & colors (patches). Also in a lot of biker gang movies, they would strike a deal with like Honda or Kawasaki, and exclusively use THEIR bikes in the movie (as advertising, obviously) but these guys are all on harleys, or at the least, authentic custom chopped bikes. And yes, this one actually has an interesting storyline! I am sick to death of "cop infiltrates biker gang and starts going native" movies.

I LOVE the guy who wears a long white doctor's coat under all his biker clothes, and any time someone crashes, the "doctor" runs over with his medical bag, whips out a can of beer, and goes, "drink! drink up! You'll feel better!" I also like the bellhop in the ritzy hotel, who is wearing a goofy "scale mail" costume, supposedly (I guess) to look like a roman gladiator.

The only thing I don't buy is why they would rob a bank "just to prove we could do it," and their intention is to mail the money back to the casino after they get home. That's SILLY...like anyone would ever do that just for kicks, and not keep the money! They have more of a chance of getting caught and going to jail by mailing it back than just plain keeping it!

I can't understand your crazy moon language.

The guys planning to mail it back is what's supposed to keep the audience "liking" them throughout the movie - no matter what they do.
