WATCH MY HIT MAN REVIEW: • We Need To Talk About ...
The Bikeriders is a 2023 American crime drama film written and directed by Jeff Nichols. The film stars Jodie Comer, Austin Butler, Tom Hardy, Michael Shannon, Mike Faist, and Norman Reedus. Its plot, inspired by the photo-book of the same name by Danny Lyon, depicts the lives of the Vandals MC, a fictional outlaw motorcycle club founded in the late 1960s.
The Bikeriders premiered at the 50th Telluride Film Festival on August 31, 2023, and was released in the United States on June 21, 2024. Originally scheduled to be released theatrically in the United States on December 1, 2023, by 20th Century Studios, the release was delayed due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. Ultimately, Focus Features acquired the film rights from producer New Regency.
At a local bar in the late 1960s, Kathy Bauer falls for Benny, the newest recruit of the Midwestern motorcycle club, the Vandals, led by the enigmatic Johnny Davis. As the country evolves, the club shifts from a haven for local outcasts into a world of violence, forcing Benny to choose between his commitment to Kathy and his loyalty to the club.

@@JackLautaretPLEASE :
Hello, why does Kathy want Benny to stop the motorcycle and the vandals Please, why does she want Benny to stop the motorcycle and the vandals
Because we see 2 people in the bar without taking Benny for his jacket Why did they attack him and beat him up How did he end up in hospital
And why Kathy said Benny is uncontrollable but uncontrollable on what Benny he them And how he did to join the Vandals Benny
because in the trailer we see Kathy being attacked by bikers wearing Vandals jackets And why are they attacking Kathy and Benny the Vandals Chicago guys
because we see Kathy say to Johnny
it's mine you'll never have it what did they mean when she said it's mine you'll never have it
So what would happen if Benny left the Vandals Club and got out of his Gang What would the other members of the Club and Johnny do to him if Benny left them all
Thank you for your answers
@@BENNY-CROSS.VANDALS-CHICAGO best answer to your question, watch the movie. The movie answers most of those questions.

One of my most anticipated movies of the year too. I will watch it in the movie theatre. Thanks for the review! 🤘
Enjoy it! Thanks for watching the review!
Thanks for the great review. You just picked up a subscriber. I saw it Friday morning and absolutely loved it. All the performances were outstanding, but I've seen some criticism of Jodie Comer's accent. Sure, it was unusual, but it was actually a spot on impersonation of the real-life Kathy's accent, gleaned from Danny Lyon's original interview tapes. I thought her performance was Oscar caliber. The cinematography was fantastic. Beautifully photographed with many striking images. And I thought the soundtrack hit just the right note. It was authentically 60s, but didn't use songs that have become so iconic that they would have distracted from the movie (Born to Be Wild, Leader of the Pack, etc.). Instead, the soundtrack just added background atmosphere. I do hope it finds an audience because it deserves one. Early box office figures are encouraging, so it's possible it could even slightly exceed the $8-10 million projections. Hopefully good word-of-mouth can help it sustain interest in the coming weeks. Anecdotally, I have a friend in Tennessee who passed up two Saturday afternoon showings because the auditoriums were pretty packed (he saw Thelma instead and recommends that). But he saw The Bikeriders in a crowded house last night (and also loved it).
Thelma is a great watch if you have the chance! I totally agree with you on all points! Thank you for watching my review!
@@JackLautaret My pleasure! And I'll definitely be looking for a chance to see Thelma.
I already knew that Jodie's accent was accurate to the real Kathy, but something didn't look right about it. Jodie is too elegant and noble looking in a way. If she was less prim and proper I think maybe her accent might have felt more natural.
@@johnjungkook2721hahahaha I love that you said that about Jodie 😂😂😂…. yes that’s why she fits her role as Elizabeth of York in the White Princess…. she’s an underrated actress… Hope she’ll be in more good movies/ tv series…love watching her.
I went and saw it. It is one of those movies where I can't gain a consensus until some time passes. I may have to see it again. I know it was great but I can't put my finger on why because it was such a different way for a movie to flow.
It took me about 12 hours to really sit on the film and think about it. Once it clicked it clicked. I appreciate your thoughts!
I know what you mean, so I saw it a second time and that is when the nostalgia of it really sunk in. The fact that it is about real people behaving like real people is something we don’t get to see very often. I thought that hyper realistic approach was very brave and fantastic, but it is also why many people are calling it soulless and empty. We’ve been so inundated with larger than life fake people pretending to be real that true authenticity is unrecognizable. I can’t wait to see the movie again.
Absolutely fabulous review. Seen other peoples reviews and they are up and down. Most of them have been watching Marvel and wham bang thankyou mam films. Jeff Nichols has had this film in his mind for over 15 years. He wrote the script., dreamed it and put together a beautiful film from the 1960s about a motorbike club which got out of hand into a gang. That time in history has gone never to return. It is a film I enjoyed so much and the acting is the best. Loved your review and so true.
Really appreciate the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the film too!
I loved this movie. It is such a beautiful and nostalgic look at a time gone by. Amazing performances and I agree the writing is spot on. I feel so protective of this movie because if it doesn’t do well we may not get more like it and that would be very sad indeed.
Loved it! We obviously saw the same film because I totally agree with your analysis. I am recommending it for date nights. The score is spot-on. You have a new subscriber.
I liked it a lot too. Tom Hardy killed it
He was really good. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Agreed

I agree about the filmmaking, acting & authenticity, but i did think the pacing/ length was a little off, mostly towards the end. I also just didn't like the Benny character, his smoulder looked like a whiny pout half the time and went on for too long (that didn't work for me in SOA either)
I enjoyed the random stories & hanging out, it felt beyond authentic - reminded me of being a kid in my dad's sidecar, who ran with an MC, although that was the 80s in NJ.
So it was like a 7/10 for me, i liked it & am glad i saw it. Other people in the theater seemed kinda disappointed.
Good review & I'm glad someone recognizes the strengths here.
Thank you for your thoughts! Really cool story about your dad. I’m glad you enjoyed some aspects of the film!
Have to say I disagree with you about Benny’s character. I think he showed the most growth over the entire film, from an empty vessel running away from living to a whole man with feelings and able to participate in his life and family.
@@dr.deborahbarr4389 I see what you mean. I liked that he ended up doing right by his wife, but it was painful to watch him get there, especially through her eyes. Cheers
@@stevensatanson oh I agree painful indeed, but isn’t that the sign of a truly great film? One that really messed with your emotions? It is for me.
Sure, I love having my emotions manipulated, it's why I'm crazy about movies. But this isn't Schindler's lament, this is "Benny stops acting like a child & his wife won't be in danger of SA because of him" (which was definitely partially his fault)
Did the drive-in diner scene make the final cut?
It felt like an old school film it was so good 🤌🏻
Wow, you are spot on. Great review!
great review about this true story made into film with no bs injected
Thanks a lot. I really liked the movie. I watched it twice.
It was beautiful to watch. It made me think. I highly recommend.
Very good film. All performance top shelf.
I just watched it and I wanted more! Like a 10 part tv-series or something. It was so great, somehow, that I wanted more. The moment when Johnny is trying to get Benny to be the leader, the second time, when it kind of gets homo-erotic, was so unexpected and added layers of tension when he gets the no, but it gives answers of why Benny left. Tom Hardy said in an interview that this moment was an accident that worked very well.

You need to get yourself a bike, mister. We saw it yesterday. Liked it.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching the review!
Jack Lautaret..You say Tom hardy Is meant to be a father figure when the director said that's definitely not the case it's Tom hardy seeing Austin butlers as a young man he once was and that youth you can't get back.
Good movie.... yet what I'm most impressed by these days is a series called Hotel Cocaine.
That is a great show.
Gotta check it out! Thanks for the recommendation!
is that a phiilies hat?
I don't understand how you can do a review without mentioning even once that it's all based on (and cinematically ripped off) Danny Lyon's seminal book. There are scenes that are totally copied from the book. Buy the book, go see the movie but understand that it's from Lyon's book. Also, please don't go out and buy a leather jacket and become a poser...the Outlaw community dislikes posers.
This movie sucked. It was trying to tow the line between drama and action, and ended up being bad at both. It was marketed as an action/thriller about a biker gang. What we got was some woman yappin about how she fell in love with a pretty boy bikerider. If I wanted to hear about some random woman's poor life decisions, I'd go to my mom's book club. This is practically a chick flick.
Dramas need to stop being advertised as action. Just because there's 2 scenes of a fist fight doesn't mean they should use those to make the movie look like it's actiony when it's not.
I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy it. Thank you for watching the review!
Sadly it was the new film company that promoted it that way. I agree it was misleading. All the interviews with the cast were different. Worked out for me as I was quite pleasantly surprised by what it was.
Agreed.. and I'm not some shallow.. Psuedo BIKER BOY F BOY... I just thoroughly enjoy the more darker and semi- violent crime/action side of movies/shows based on biker gangs especially the inception of them.. I was super stoked on being able to ESSENTIALLY see how biker gangs made the transition from being mild mannered working men who love to ride and drink and have a bar fight here and there to the drug running and actually commiting more violent acts to enforce their reputation. That's kinda what I thought this was gonna be, and i was conscious of the fact it was gonna be more on the sensitive side as I knew the premise was from Jodie POV ... And I didn't mind seeing it from that POV either...but there were just a lot of places where the movie completely fell flat for me... As far as the linear story telling aspect goes. It was a GOOD movie.. wasn't terrible but considering the caliber of actors that were in it and the potential it could've had...it just fell exponentially short of its potential to me
exactly, boring af, you know why it is not a hit, because it sucks
SOA was a shitty TV show. Turn the sound off and just check out the bikes.
This film is the opposite.
So you enjoyed the film? Thanks for checking out my review!
