The Bikeriders

Bike riding with your pals was more than just the passion, it was the way oflife which many did not understand. The people who had no homes or direction to walk, they chose to ride that road with their own destiny. That's how the bike clubs were born and to this today it is the way of life, some of which are notorious and some are just chilling on the roads. This is one such true documented story of a club called Outlaws Association, which is renamed into Vandals in the film. The OG bike club in the world which was started by Johnny with similar minded people who shared similar thoughts of living the way of life. But as this bike culture boomed, many people started making their own clubs and they started facing off with these other bike gangs resulting in fights. This is what ruined the bike club and brought a bad name to it. What happens when outsiders comes into the club which was created straight of similar thoughts between friends, everything goes into chaos. It is a really interesting movie about the people and their lives and this culture in the mid 70s. I really liked the character of Jodie Comer among all, she was the character which was the center of both storyline going back and front. She was holding this film together. Documenting her shows different perspectives of those people. An outsider way of looking into unknown culture. Otherwise the movie could have been less interesting. The screenplay is a little loose I feel, it should be more intense. Tom Hardy was too good, man just eats up whichever character he gets. I did not feel much of an impact from Austin butler, it was a little cold. It is important documentation which should be watched by all.
