Just got back from Biker Boyz!!!
Ok here is the condensed version! the bikes are freaking awsome!!! the racing is COOL.(but it is a movie)and the stunts are bad ass! and most of the chicks are hot! now the acting is pretty lame for the most part. and the Love story, has got to go! it is slow in that arena! and Kid Rock can not act, but you probably could have guessed that one! now we only stayed about the first hour or so, because i did not want to ruin the whole movie for tommorow night!! but just wanted to let you guys all know! some of you will like it and some of you will say it stinks. and god I love having a woman in the Movie biz! they showed the movie for only the 2 of us and cranked the sound up it was great!!!! well there you go this is Mad Mike's Movie Review!

Yea....I went to the pre-release showing on Tues with a bunch of people I ride with around Minneapolis and we all came to the same conclusion......I am glad I didn't pay to see this movie! I was so pumped up at the start of the movie...cool sounds,tricks and chicks but there were just too many stupid parts that just wrecked the movie for me. I won't go into detail for the people who havn't seen it but you will see! Mike....you missed the ending hu......well look forward to seeing a race on a dirt road and laughing at the stopping distance these guys can achieve on a dirt road....very entertaining. Oh well....just figured I would throw in my 2 cents worth.

Cool!
I'm so like there Dude - can hardly wait to chack it out...
I hope it does well - cause I would love to work on a bike movie that doesn't have the typical Duc + Buel bulshit bikes...
***Duc's before the US took over 100% of the company are cool - now they suck ass ***

I would rather pay 6.50 for a box of used condoms...
That movie sucked ass so bad its fucking pathetic...
If I rode my bike to the movie I would be embarassed to ride it home...
Don't have to worry about insurance going up I dont even feel like riding nobody will go see it...
Its was so false it was sickening
1. Kid was trying to outrun the world on a 750 GSXR...
2. How many drag races you see go back and fourth 10 times before its over.. Every one did here..
3. How many times you went out an run your 200 horsepower streetbike in the rain???
4. Kid ran down a Honda Blackbird from behind on a 750 Gsxr..
5. Drag race down a dirtroad on the two fastest prodyction bikes made... Give me a damn brake...
6. Every drag race was in a town like setting to enclosed for any real racing..
7. The one time they do get to a track cops close it down????
I could go on all night........
ANYONE WHO RIDE OR KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT BIKES..... THIS MOVIE WILL INSULRT YOUR INTELLIGENCE....
I NOW FEEL DUMBER FOR WATCHING IT....
Waste your 6 or 7 bucks at your own risk... I would rather slam my dick in a car door than watch it again... The pace of the movie sucked ass... And the stunts weren't nowhere near what they could have been...

hey it was a Movie, and I would go see it again! but they should have hired a drag racer to look over the storyline, there is no freaking way they would have finished the race on a dirt road????

I thought Rigky G said he did some of the riding for the movie.

Well I saw it.............
The movie is lame as shit,.......but just seeing the bikes on the big screen was cool. Hearing them was cool too.
The dirt road deal is probably the most pathetic thing I've ever saw. That's about like fucking in the middle of church during the preachers sermon.  Ya just don't do shit like that. They had a chance to make a killer movie and blew it IMHO. Maybe someday eh...........................

Rickey was in it and he was on the set for 2 months. but he did not write it and Im sure the Director did not give him the screenplay to review. he helped with the stunts, and did some of the racing stunts and scenes. and they really could have made this one great movie, the first scene is great in my book! but the most horrific line in the whole move, was when "smoke" LF, says to kid, "yes the cops shut down the dragstrip because there were to many accidents! but we found a street we can race on." of all the insane things to say, that is honestly worse then the Dirt scene.

Anything 'racing related' or racing scenes in the movie was totally unrealistic, but we all knew that going in. The storyline was good; worth seeing. At least they showed someone getting killed in the very first race scene; maybe that will was a effort on being responsible?

I really liked Kid Rock's line where he "jacked a piston???"
I honestly don't see any Oscars being handed out for this so called movie, LOL
It was worth going with our riding gang just for the comic value....We're gonna practice that stopping scene and putting our kickstands down in order.

Less "plot" (was there a point to be made?) and "character development" (cardboard people don't have much "character" anyway) then Fast and Furious. I think that must be some kind of record in itself! I found the "Star Wars like" twist kinda entertaining... "Luke... I am your father".
A few oxymorons...
1. What's with the Duc being in the mix? Anyone seen a Duc at the strip? At least they didn't stretch it too!
2. The Busa had a Muzzy and the Gixxer had a Jardine. I guess Yosh didn't pay or trade for "product placement" like Miller Genuine Draft did.
3. What's with their "shift points"? We're the still on the "break in period" on these bikes or what? I... THAT'S ME (King of ALL Posers), FOLKS... have hit the rev limiter more in two days worth of backroads riding then every bike in the whole movie and I have NEVER drag raced!
4. Why put GSXR 1000 forks on a 750? Because their "gold looks so cool"?
5. Will unfastened open face helmets become the latest rage?
6. So, I guess the most likely way to get hurt (or killed) at a street race is to be a spectator?
7. The four wheelers "humping" (at least they made it look like they were) through the twisties side by side was impressive. On the other hand, it was also disheartening for me to realize that those dudes on the ATVs (like almost everybody else here) would probably smoke me on the backroads too! 
The sad part wasn't even in the movie. It was in the theater's parking lot. We weren't to the late feature and our four bikes were the only ones there. It would have been three, if jonwright had not loaned his Gixxer to our forth rider. To make matters worse, was to listen to the few 14~15 year old kids standing around our bikes and talking about how they were gonna get a 600 this or a 750 that, because a 250 or 500 would be "too small" for them.
The funniest part wasn't in the movie, either. While I was putting my gloves on, a car pulled up with the whole family in it and stops next to where we were parked. The wife jumps and asks if she can take a picture of our bikes. When I said it was okay, she got all excited and took a few pics. Then she asked which one was mine. When I told her which one it was, she asked if I'd "pose" next to my bike for a pic. Since "posing" come fairly "natural" to me (again, being the King of Posers), I obliged. She thanked me and jumped back into the car, telling her husband how she wanted a bike just like mine.
Actually, the best "review" I've read on this "movie" is over at LAB, by rumble phish. Though his thoughts about how the non-riding public and government officials might view sportbike riders might sound like "chicken little", it does have some valid possibilities to it.

A Turd...........
Everyone that I know who has seen the movie said it sucked shit. I beg to differ, I think it was the greatest movie of all time. NOT What stupid motherfucker wrote this??? He needs to lay the glass dick down and let his head clear up. Also, what's the deal with the "King of Cali"? That dude that was on the show that BET aired,who was supposedly the "real" King of Cali looked like a blowed out, big samidge eaten MF. Is that dude really a street racer??? I coulda swore I saw the boy pullin' outta "Kentucky Fried Chicken" last night on a Road King with a bucket 'o chicken between his legs.
