Motorosok

Dicséretre méltó vállalkozás, amely leporolja a jó öreg motoros miliőt, és élvezettel építi fel a sztorit és a karaktereket. Jól kiválasztott és jól alakító színészekkel. Törékeny Jodie Comer karakteres nehézfiúk között, akik sehova nem tartoznak, ezért egymáshoz tartoznak. Tom Hardy morgása és tekintete sosem volt még ilyen ékesszóló, a lázadó szépfiú Austin Butler pedig a legikonikusabb filmes Amerika (James Dean) szellemét adja. A Motorosok egy élvezetes old-school film a színészcsapat rajongói számára, amelynek nincs szüksége szofisztikált cselekményre ahhoz, hogy minden jelenetével szórakoztasson, és végig megőrzi a kiszámíthatatlan végkifejletet. A film talán legmenőbb és legeredetibb, egyszerre romantikus és macsó jelenete, amikor Butler a Jodie Comer háza előtt udvarol neki. (2024.06.24)

A quality film, but not made for me, thematically and emotionally it missed me completely - and if I hadn't been at the cinema , I probably wouldn't have made it to the end. I can't tune in to see the characters as at least partially sympathetic libertarian rebels. To me, they all came off as irresponsible buffoons from the start. (2024.06.21)

Old school. Honest filmmaking, yet Jeff Nichols goes about it a little differently. A motorcycle thesis, starting with a look at Marlon Brando in The Wild One, wanders between the various characters, their monologues about the poor and war, cars and banging the pretty Kathy. The acting is top-notch in each of the Vandals, but Austin Butler and Tom Hardy tower above them all. Hardy's thoughtful, good-natured Johnny as the founder and boss shows that it was all originally about picnics and a sense of freedom, and Butler, as the embodiment of that Savage, is the role model and son he always wanted (I guess? Nichols is not literally wise). The Bikeriders is based on a photo book so it's fortunate that it has a plot arc and an unexpected ending and says a lot about what women think of men. Still, it lacked one bigger scene to stick in the memory and push it up that proverbial notch. But maybe they didn't put it in for a greater sense of realism. (2024.08.03)

Pretty weak. Ironically, it's where the film should have started. Because it's not until the last 10 minutes that we find out that the gang is in full swing (prostitutes, drugs, murders), so what we wanted to see will be in the sequel, which won't come. So if it wasn't for the guy gangster shit, I was hoping to at least enjoy the bikes, but NOPE, even those are scarce here. Mainly, it deals with relationships. Tom Hardy and Austin Butler were good, but apart from one burnt down pub and an “almost” rape, nothing interesting happened for two hours, and after the promising trailer, I see that as underwhelming. I didn't completely suffer, but then I'm not happy with the outcome either. At least the cameos of more familiar faces will be nice. 5/10. (2024.07.12)

The Bikeriders rides the wave of nostalgia. The cast is definitely trendy, but the story feels like filler between Danny Lyon's photos. It's not really important that the inspiration from The Wild One seemed somewhat archaic even in the sixties. What matters is that the tradition of Easy Rider continues. (2024.06.27)
