Wild Hogs : 2 of 5
3.11.2007 6:32 PM \| Link	There certainly has been a lack of movies that I want to see lately, but since I still like to see something at the theater every now and then, my pal Melinda and I went to see this goofy little movie. My low rating is only because I wouldn't really recommend seeing this (unless you're a big fan of this genre), but I still had a few laughs, and there have certainly been worse movies than this one! Wild Hogs is about four older guys feeling like life has passed them by, so they go on a long road trip on their motorcycles. Of course, they meet up with a gang of bad-guy bikers, and the whole thing ends up in a showdown where they learn to be thankful for their lives and their friendship (big surprise!). I liked William H. Macy's character, since he's basically a computer geek (who is proud of his Apple logo tattoo), and the skinny dipping scene was pretty funny, too. However, there were some things that seemed really contrived (thrown in for a desperate laugh), especially the twin cops where one makes fun of his brother for having a shot-off ear! This movie probably should have been made for TV, but I guess it had to have a theatrical release since people always go to see movies with stars in them. Overall, Wild Hogs was good for some laughs with a friend, but I definitely won't be TiVo-ing this when it hits cable! Labels: movies
