Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

Wizard-8 Did you ever wonder what happened to the kid (that didn't get his face smashed in with a rock) who was in the notorious exploitation movie FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE? Well, he moved behind the camera to become a producer, writer, and director, and BIKER BOYZ is one of those efforts. Seeing it, you have to wonder why Dreamworks Pictures green-lit it - it's far from their usual standards, and even for the subject matter it concerns, it's not very involving. To be fair, the movie is nicely shot (brightly lit and eye-popping colors), and the camera-work and choreography at times show that some time and planning was done at times. The script also has the nice touch in that there are no real bad guys, just more ordinary that each have their unique flaws. But the movie lacks punch and excitement - the plot is slow-moving, and even the racing sequences come across as surprisingly bland. Not a terrible movie, but with its good parts and bad parts combined, it equals a pretty bland viewing experience.

view_and_review Maybe Biker Boyz wasn't as good as I thought it was, but the fact of the matter is, I saw "Torque" before I saw Biker Boyz. And after having seen "Torque", any movie with street bikes in them that didn't run on pixie dust was going to be better. I honestly disregarded the acting and the plot to simply gawk at the bikes and what the riders would do on the bikes. There were some cool stunts and really pretty machines. Those bikes were so beautiful that I know it has skewed my judgment of the movie; but hey, at least I'm honest about it.The plot wasn't all bad... the racing aspect of it that is. Besides the racing for "lids" story, and trying to dethrone the top gun, the rest of the movie was just filler. "Biker Boyz" is decent enough to kill time.

onceaweek_doomed what's wrong with you people? what's wrong with the world? what could possibly make you write, direct, cast, come up with music ad outfits, create special effects and... so many, many other things which you have to take care of when making a movie... and all, ALL, for THIS?! what's wrong with the world??? what did i hate about this movie? well, just about everything - everything, from actors to script, from... oh, i might be lying... the bikes were... wow! ...i might be in love. anyway, we are not talking about their rides, we're talking about the movie itself and i have no reason whatsoever to claim that i enjoyed it. it was rubbish: "i hate you, i hate you, ...oh, you're my father ... then... i don't know, i guess i'll drop by and ask you to give me that helmet i won... sometimes... soon". it just didn't seem right, you know? besides, this movie made me think: what would I do if i found out that my father was a racer i was trying to get revenge at because the person i used to think of as my father got killed because of the racer i mentioned earlier?! oh, that's not it. it made me think of... i remember now: i am about to get my driver's licence and i felt a certain(very, very, VERY pleasant) rush when i saw them racing with... let's say "considerable" speed. yep, that's the reason why it made me think. and i HATE using my brain (kidding, i hope that my review made you guys "know better"). so: WILL I DIE??? i'm scared... will speed turn me into a freak? will i become one of those people wearing horrifyingly ugly clothes and behaving like a sex-addicted person??? mummy! somebody help me!!!

Kingvagabond Biker Boyz is a film that is great despite its numerous flaws. The film is built using thousands of clichés and stereotypes untrue to the real world of street racing. However, despite its many flaws, which are numerous and obvious the films spirit is maintained and despite its poor score on IMDb viewed in the right way this film is incredibly good. There's a tendency to view a film coming out of the black community based on a mainly white area of life as poor before the film has even been watched. There's reasons for this and many films doing this are right to be critically panned. Some of the acting in the movie is poor, and whilst the plot is clichéd for the genre and the crew didn't do themselves any favours by not accentuating the emotional points of the plot, the film is still a solid and emotional drama. I gave this film 7 out of 10 due to the empathetic acting of Kid and Smoke (Fishbourne turns in a great performance) and hope that potential viewers aren't put off by the poor rating that it has received.
