Everyone down on it but still dying to see it.


I have noticed that everyone has nothing but negative comments about this movie but I am still dying to see it. I ride and am a big fan of the original movie. I know there's no way it could even come close to the first but I still can't wait to see it.

Just saw the premier last night and it was really hard to watch at times. The beginning had many people leaving. I thought the middle was very good but the end left me empty. Acting was not very good. The story just could not get going with any momentum. I am a 40 year rider and loved Easy Rider. 1 1/2 stars at best. Sorry.

It could hardly be any worse... what a shame.

Who comes up with these ideas to make films like this? Doesn't anybody think ahead that the no one will ever go see it, not to mention how ridiculous the concept is?

I had to stop watching it after the first 5 minutes.

It is truly as bad as everyone says. I honestly dont understand how someone can make a movie and then watch it and think "yes its good and ready to release in theaters". WOW 2 minutes into the movie you can tell its like a cheesy after school special. Ive never demanded my money back in a theater but this would be the first time for sure. Although i doubt any theater will be dumb enough to be showing this movie. Straight to VHS as they say!

I got it from Netfix KNOWING it had to suck, but I couldn't have imagined the degree of lameness it achieved. I was going to turn it off it was so bad, but I started considering it a personal challenge to get all the way through.

Picture this:

Some lawyer buys the rights to the movie then HE writes the screenplay,along with some other nobody.
Then you have the actress best known from "Walker, Texas Ranger" produce it.
Then you make it with your own money, because there is NO production company that would have given this the green light.

Who is going to tell you how bad it is, the unemployed actors who get a paycheck for being in it?
