This movie is completely awful.


I don't know why it has a 6.3 rating. It should be atleast lower than 4.5. This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

I completely agree with you. Yesterday when my buddy asked me how the movie was I told him it's one of the worst movies I have ever seen, if not the worst.

wont be watching this then =]

I watched this movie on a flight from the US to the UK, I had to find something to occupy my time! But seriously, I watched the preview first, it really did look quite good and funny, then I watched the movie, it was OK but as it went on it got a little dull. Overall it was acceptable but it's a movie I would not watch again. I don't think it's worth the 6.3 score it currently has, maybe 4.5 or maybe stretch it to 5.

I agree, I was hoping for something better but I gave this movie a 5/10. I love Martin Lawrence and I don't mind Tim Allen but the comedy in this movie was fairly predicatable. If you're bored one evening then it's worth a hire, but don't expect a great deal of laughs.

Also Maggie (Marisa Tomei) looks way to young for Dudley (William H. Macy), she almost looks young enough to be his daughter.

reply

yeah this film totally rules! i loved every minute of it. Should be more like average 10/10 rating

reply

I honestly thought this movie would be a great. It has a good cast and I saw the potential of "City Slickers" on Harley's to be massive. But honestly this movie does suck... it's truly, truly awful. And the sad thing is that it's probably down to bad scripting and direction. I can't see how you could put these people in here and it be this terrible. Even Marisa Tomei... an oscar winner, looks like she hasn't been given a thing to do here, and hangs around waiting to be given a line. The cinematography is terrible too, the shot selection makes it look like a bad soap opera. 3 out of 10 stars is more accurate, unless a father takes his 10 year old son to the movies... in which case 5. One word for this "EEeeeewwwwww!!!"

reply

This movie was great.

I guess though, it is a man's movie. Women will probably not get much out of it other than a not really great comedy.

Women just don't understand the concept of freedom like men do.

Nope. I watched this, and briefly considered castration.

If you are talking about castrating yourself I agree...let's stop idiots from reproducing. This movie was great!

reply

Yes, I'm a woman and I didn't care for it that much, smiled a little. My husband seemed to enjoy it quite a lot. Two of my friends (women) loved it. I kind of cringed, but then I prefer more offbeat movies.

reply

this movie was very funny.
i see 8.0 movies here that i watch and can't stand.
i don't have faith in the imdb rating system.
different strokes.

I feel completely the same bro , *beep* imdb ratings .
THIS MOVIE IS *beep* AWESOME WATCH IT , I DON'T CARE WHAT THESE SAD *beep* SAY ;')

reply

Women don't understand freedom?! Are you kidding me? I would love to be free. Free from washing his dirty clothes he leaves all over the place. Free from his stinging barbs when he doesn't get his way. Free to hang out with my girlfriends once a freaking month without him calling me 10 times. And most of all, freedom from his drinking habit and the house that is falling apart because he's glued to the couch.

Freedom, that's a laugh.

reply

Wow that man must really be good at something, for you to tolerate all that!

reply

Yeah ... supplying the $$$

reply

umm, I beg to differ, both my mom and I really enjoyed this movie. It was hilarious.

reply

Excuse me but I really enjoyed the movie and thought it was funny....there is no need for you to be sexist.

reply

I don't get why anyone wouldn't like this movie. I thought it was great!! It's got action and it's hilarious!! These guys did great job. I loved this movie and I'm a woman...

Please tell us you were kidding.

reply

You have to be old enough to remember Easy Rider to really enjoy this movie.
Especially near the end.

reply

Goodby little boy. I'm out to get a life.

reply

I've never seen Easy Rider and I like this film. I've never seen those old adventure serials, but I still enjoy Indiana Jones films.

Plotholes are like Bigfoot, people who claim to see them are just trying to stir things up.

reply

OMG! You're kidding, but you're not which is even sadder. Easy Rider is orders of magnitude better than Wild Hogs. You should wash your brain out with lysergic acid for even suggesting such nonsense. This movie completely sucked by comparison. You're saying something like you have to have seen Vanishing Point to really appreciate Cars, especially at the end. ROTFLMFAO@U

this movie is not for a prude

reply

Marisa Tomei was 43 years old when this film was released. I agree: she does look younger than that.


Stupid!?! I never called you stupid! To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people!

reply


Come on, give it a break. Tim Allen, John Travolta, Martin Lawrence, William H. Macy, Marisa Tomei, Ray Liotta, how could you go wrong? It wasn't drop dead hilarious, but it was what i like to call, "Average time consumption", meaning it's a movie that is nowhere near great, but good enough to pass the time when you're bored. Even though Martin Lawrence isn't that old, it was just a pass for middle aged men to make a funny movie about their dull lives and deciding to live it up while they still can. They just needed to spice up the comedy a little bit more, that's all. Believe me, i've seen WAY worst movies than this. I can understand where people think it's terrible, but you have to watch a couple times more, maybe you'll come around. I had to watch it 4 times before i actually found it worthy. When you make a comedy with Tim the Toolman Taylor, Danny Zuko, Big Momma, and the Shoveler, you kinda expect a rollercoaster fun time. Here, you get that, only it's a kiddie rollercoaster.

I don't get the hate. I think it's fun. If you like the actors you'll probably get something out of this. funniest character though is gay dr. Cox

reply

I agree it's not brilliant - but the worst you've ever seen? I guess you've missed a few gems (like Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! :)

reply

Well in that example the difference is I'd actually re-watch the Killer Tomatoes.

reply

I fail to see what is wrong with this film and why everyone's hates it? People are seriously weird. How can you hate this movie? Its entertaining and pretty damn funny in parts. Like this guy said, go back and watch *beep* avatar.

reply

Because with 4 great actors and an open ended road trip story anything could have happened. Instead it's the most ridiculously unbelievable load of banal *beep* imaginable.

This is the funniest move I’ve seen this year. My rate is 10, because it is very entertaining and full with great funny situations.

reply

funniest meaning only?

most anticipated movie of 2009: Inglorious Bastards

reply

6.4 fits it well if you ask me, not great, not bad either, basically what it was.

Had some funny moments, and it made me laugh.

Just reading the quotes here had me laughing ;).

reply

does this movie provoke any emotions or thoughts? it wasnt funny...

reply

I liked Wild Hogs. I thought it was original and funny.

I agree with Stray, I loved the movie, it is one you can just sit back and enjoy, we all need movies like that. Plus, it was funny!!

reply

Two things, one you obviouslydon't ride a bike as everyone I know who does loves the movie. two, don't watch it if you don't like it.

reply

I agree, and I've been a "biker" for about 30 years now, and so is my father. I thought the movie was funny as hell, I laughed so hard, my stomach hurt the next day. I gave it a 8 out of 10

And, I read in another comment something about why Liota's character listened to his father, mine is 72, still rides a motorcycle, and I'd listen to him...

reply

Wow! just wow! Soooo typical.

Harley's cater for a specific type of stupid whereas riding a bike is a more general type of stupid.

edit: Got a little girl we're minding today. She's 8 years old. Her mother died from a drug related death. Dad has a bike. He dumps the child on us and goes riding. You can't put a figure on that level of stupidity. We just wait for the phone call or the knock on the door from the Police. It's a tragedy waiting to happen and one which is entirely preventable. Being young and stupid doesn't cut it as an excuse when you're in your mid forties and you orphan your daughter.

I rarely comment on movies. I found this movie to just be incredibly average. It's like they made a 'middle age road trip movie'.... but also make it a kids movie or something. It's just not that funny. It's not great and it's not bad. Just very very mediocre. The rating of 6.5 on here makes no sense considering I have seen way better movies get completely bashed on here.

reply

true

it's really bad

reply

I lasted 15 minutes then turned it off. I like William H Macy, but not in this movie, not at all.

i thought the movie was suprisingly great.

WAY better than i expected.

reply

Ew ... I saw parts of this on a flight recently. Instead of seeing a comedy, I saw a mean, uninspired, and horrendous film in which all of the characters were excremental (no chemistry at all between the actors) and the writers try to come up with something to fill the time by butting in homophobic gags. How in the hell could anyone like this??

reply

The movie was good. It was an escape type of movie and to me .... nothing wrong with that!

reply

Totally agree. Nothing funny, nothing real, nothing interesting.

reply

Agreed this movie was complete and utter crap. Only funny thing was the little fat dude singing Ride my pony or whatever at the chilli fair.

reply

are you dead inside christopherpoulopoulos? the fat dude was probably the worst part (but still funny), and the rest was entertaining and relaxing.

its beyond me what people expect from a movie, you should already know before you watch it, it's that obvious! a simple trailer does the job of what to expect...

reply

Below average "comedy", dull, rough, primitive humour, average ppl will like it for sure...

reply

Yep, it's banal.

Have you no taste, srss01? Really, this movie is awful - only a simpleton would find it entertaining. The jokes are old, juvenile, and have been recycled to death.

reply

Hey, yes, that fat dude... made me pee in my pants!

C'mon, it wasn't THAT bad, I enjoyed watching it with my kids, something difficult to do with recent "comedy" movies, unless you are watching some Pixar stuff.
