gibsonguy335 When you ride a motorcycle, sometimes it's really hot and sometimes it's really cold. Sometimes it rains and sometimes you get bugs smashed against your face shield and jacket. Occasionally you ride and everything is perfect (like the pictures you see on motorcycle ads). To a real motorcyclist, you are willing to put up with all those discomforts to enjoy the freedom of the ride. Motorcycles do not have climate control and a sound proof cabin with a built in entertainment system. People who need those things will never get motorcycling and they will never get this movie. This movie is about 4 middle aged guys who realize what they have been doing for the past 20 years is exactly what they will be doing for the next 20 years.....and then they will grow old and die. Doug, Bobby, Dudley and Woody make the decision that they are going to leave their continual, hum-drum existence for a week or two and do something different for once in their lives. Can they escape their mundane lives long enough to actually get free? People who are happy to run out their lives just doing the same thing over and over again will never get Wild Hogs. If there is a Doug or a Bobby or a Dudley or a Woody inside of you, you will love this movie. For anybody else, Wild Hogs will be a pointless waste of time they could have otherwise dedicated to doing more of the same thing over and over again.
OllieSuave-007 Four middle-aged men (Tim Allen, John Travolta, William H. Macy, and Martin Lawrence), dubbed the Wild Hogs, take a road trip on their motorcycles from Cincinnati to the Pacific to take a break from their mundane lives. On the journey ahead, they stop at a New Mexico bar, not knowing it belongs to the the mean biker gang "Del Fuegos." They steal a bike that belongs to the Wild Hogs, leading the four men to concoct a plan to get the bike back.Allen, Travolta, Macy and Lawrence prove that you don't always need those young punk, dude-like, eye candy guys to dominate the big screen. The Wildhogs are just about as entertaining as many of those gun-totting, property destroying action stars, or smoothing-talking, wisecracking romancers. There is a lot of cheese factor in the movie, especially in the dialog, but there is just enough comedy, drama and adventure to make this movie fast-paced and entertaining. Not a bad script to the movie either.Grade B-
classicsoncall What an incredibly sad waste of talent from an ensemble cast of well known actors who should have known better. Ostensibly this was one of those mid-life crisis films that held promise with it's four male leads, but the effort got squandered early and never really made up for it. Now individually, I like Travolta, Allen and Macy; haven't seen enough of Martin Lawrence to make the same judgment. However putting them all together was a classic case of getting less with more. On top of that, with John Travolta's recent bad press regarding his alleged homo-erotic behavior, that skinny dipping scene in the pond was all the more troubling. To be fair, there were a couple of scenes that elicited a chuckle, but I can't even remember what they were now. So much for being memorable. I read another review on this board from a viewer who wished he had seen more of Marisa Tomei; for that I'd recommend "The Wrestler". If you've seen it you'll know what I mean.
ryanc410 I honestly don't see how someone could dislike this film. Apart from serious, big-headed film critics (or wannabe film critics), this flick is bay far one of the funniest and entertaining to come out of Hollywood in the past half-decade.Acting is superb, as you would expect from veterans Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence, William H. Macy and John Travolta. The plot is - like most comedies- a little far-fetched, but that being said I think the plot made this movie really fun, assisted with the hilarious lines of William Macy, great direction and excellent overall casting.This is on the must see list.
