Finally, an honest review. I just saw the Bikeriders. For once, I didn't care that someone in the theater was on their phone. His Instagram feed was literally the most exciting part.
Nice review. The title of the films is so boring! I think the film was intentionally dull and NOT made as the action film that the marketing pretends it is. It's a sneaky "anti biker" film. "The Biker's Wife" I saw someone else call it. Just for the sack of comparing titles, here's a list from Wiki of some 60s biker films: Scorpio Rising (1964) Motorpsycho (a.k.a. Motor Psycho) (1965) The Love Merchant (1966) Girls from Thunder Strip (1966) Outlaw Motorcycles (1966) Teenage Gang Debs (1966) The Wild Angels (1966) The Born Losers (1967, released 1969) Devil's Angels (1967) The Glory Stompers (1967) Hells Angels on Wheels (1967) The Hellcats (a.k.a. Biker Babes) (1967) The Rebel Rousers (1967, released 1970) Wild Rebels (1967) Angels from Hell (1968) The Angry Breed (1968) The Great Chase, Breaking It Up (1968) The Girl on a Motorcycle (1968) Hell's Chosen Few (1968) The Mini-Skirt Mob (1968) The Sweet Ride (1968) l Profeta (1968) Biker Babylon (a.k.a. It's a Revolution Mother) (1968) The Savage Seven (1968) Savages from Hell (1968) She-Devils on Wheels (1968) The Cycle Savages (1969) Easy Rider (1969) Five the Hard Way (a.k.a. The Sidehackers) (1969) Free Grass (a.k.a. Scream Free!) (1969) Hell's Belles (1969) Hell's Angels '69 (1969) Naked Angels (1969) Run, Angel, Run! (1969) Satan's Sadists (a.k.a. Nightmare Bloodbath) (1969) Sinner's Blood (1969) Sisters in Leather (1969) Wild Wheels (1969). As you can see, the film makers did not answer the bell and try to come up with anything as memorable as those. Call me weird, but I think biker films, especially biker films set in the 60s, should have catchy titles.
