Finally, rare for these days...A GREAT MOVIE

I really liked The BikeRiders. Is it me or does Austin Butler have star power? I thought he was great in the Elvis movie. He is very charismatic and rugged in this movie.

These days it is rare to find a movie with such a great cast and actually care about the filmaking and subject matter to make an immersive and compelling movie.

It could of used a little more craziness, ala Easy Rider and seemed too sanitized at times but for a modern movie made in today's wacky, wokeness...a great movie.

didn't think it was great but thought it really did care about its subject very much and plays like a homage to biker flicks of old. Also really liked the acting

If anyone's interested, I reviewed the movie on my youtube channel. Appreciate any feedback. Trying to improve -https://youtu.be/zjsrvgv_4FI

well...compared to woke fodder these days... it was GREAT!

It was entertaining and not didactic. I guess that's the best we can hope for these days?

Boring AF! I saw the entire picture in 25min!

I enjoyed it as well, a well written film about actual human beings, in that the characters were flawed, vulnerable and authenticity portrayed.

yes well said and totally agree.
I also appreciated the quality cast.

I just watched it.
BAF.
Fell asleep for about 20 minutes in the middle of it and really don't feel the need to go back & see what I missed.

Agree! I watched The Bikeriders a few nights ago after my son recommended it. He saw it at a $5 "unknown movie" matinee.

Solid acting and a good story. I really liked it. 7/10
