Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

mitchshoffner 1969 Mitch(6th SFG), Tom, Lowel (both in the 82nd) forced all the biker gangs in Fayetteville to go underground. We put over 17 gang members in the hospital over a one month span. For almost a year you could not find a male gang member in a bar. It was Lowel's girl friend that had been gang raped by a motorcycle gang in Mississippi. Lowel never found the gang, he left home and joined the service. He had been a starting guard for Ole Miss and walked away from college and football. He was one of the biggest guys I had ever seen but was gentle as a kitten until one night in early spring at the Cellar (sight of the Airborne Museum) in 1969 when he had an altercation with a motorcycle gang, this started the war. We decided the next day to see if we could clear Fayetteville of motorcycle gangs and spent the summer working toward that goal.I would love to know who created this story.Mitch, Sgt 6th SFG

bkoganbing William Smith who during the Seventies and Eighties played a lovely garden variety of villains bordering on the psychotic is top billed here in Chrome And Hot Leather. Smith heads a biker gang which harasses and later kills young bride Cheryl Ladd. They soon have reason to regret that bit of fun because Ladd's intended was Tony Young of the Green Berets who is stateside training other would be Green Berets.Young enlists his three Green Beret sergeant buddies, Michael Haynes, Peter Brown and Marvin Gaye to track and fine the bikers responsible and bring them to justice.Bikers are tough, but Green Berets are combat trained and Young borrows a few of their toys to help round them up. It's really no contest once his pals arrive.Most interesting performance in the film is that of Joey Bishop's son Larry who plays a gay biker who spends his time playing pinball and giving Smith wistful glances. Toss him out of the gang if he gets too explicit.After giving Young a really serious motive, the film devolves in the end to some dopey type comedy. I'm sure the drive-in crowd loved it back in 1971 as they wouldn't miss much as they concentrated on other things.

Michael O'Keefe A biker gang led by William Smith has one bad cog(Michael Haynes), who runs two girls off the road. Both are killed, one being the girlfriend of a Seargent(Tony Young) in the Green Berets. The Sgt. and few of his buddies, including singer Marvin Gaye,set out to do what the local authorities are having trouble doing...hunt down the biker gang. Buying motorcycles and "borrowing" some Army weapons and a truck, the small group of Green Berets seek out the gang, The Wizards, to deal revenge and justice. Also in the cast: Peter Brown, Katherine Baughmann, Herb Jeffries, Bobby Pickett, Cheryl Ladd and Dan Haggerty.NOTE: Pickett is the same Bobby "Boris" Pickett whose original "Monster Mash" hit the Billboard's Top 100 on three different occasions. Motown artist Gaye does not sing in this his one and only film appearance.

Charlie-148 So Bad! I thought it was Grad School Project! Over all it was very amateurish.. Even someone with some talent ie. Peter Brown could not help this turkey. It was like a group got together and said "lets make a Movie!" They missed!
