Some things I liked some I did not.

Load of rubbish!!

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Ok, I like NO LOVE biker films or tv shows such as SOA. THAT was the epitome of what a biker film or show should be about. This guy Larry Bishop (no idea who the hell he is) writes, directs and is the lead (Prez) in this disaster. He does not even come across as tough or broodish or even a biker for that matter. To me with the use of a Tarantino/Rodriguez cinematic theme it delved into the rivers of crap. Michael Madsen was his titular self as he appears in all his films, In between searching for a killer, he leads a gang whose members are sort of hard to tell apart, except for The Gent (Michael Madsen), so-called because instead of leathers, he wears a ruffled formal shirt under a tux jacket, with his gang colors stitched on the back. Why does he do that? The answer to that question would require Character Development, and none of the cast members develop at all.An Homage to Dennis Hopper who rode tall in Easy Rider, he was cool in this film. He only did 9 more films after this before his untimely death. I surely yawned my way through this garbage. Don't waste your precious time. I gave it a unearned 4 but lean more towards a 3. Even the MC names are ridiculous

Guess this is a movie one should not see without warning. If you're looking for deep drama or an exciting thriller then this is not for you. If you want another "Wild Hogs" it's not that either. This is more like what I would have wished Wild Hogs to be! Maybe if you take away all the drama from "Sons of Anarchy" you could get something closer to this. If you've enjoyed simple B and C-movies of the 60's and 70's with cheesy dialog and bad acting, then you'll love this film. The acting is as great as the dialog is clichéd. Enjoy this movie for what it is. A tribute to B-movie drive-in cinema flicks of the past!The movie does not even try to be Oscar material or anything other than a simple B-movie. And with a cast of A-list actors all delivering cheesy one-liners with growling voices. It's a great little film!

There are movies that aren't what they seem upon first glance; some may look like generic crap thanks to a badly made trailer when in fact it's a masterpiece waiting to be discovered while others are movies with awesome poster art advertising a piece of crap and making it look nice. HELL RIDE is the one of the latter, and only when it's too late do you find out you were fooled into wasting money and time.I really tried to like this movie but I just couldn't find it in myself to even appreciate one bit of it. The plot sounded promising (old bikers in what should've been an action-packed grindhouse style movie) but it never made any sense. I tried to understand just what was going on from the start but I ended up failing miserably; the movie's events were messily executed even for a movie that relies on a messed up timeline (ala PULP FICTION) and most of the movie's run time was a complete bore.Many of the plot elements (especially the drugs sequences which were useless)and characters didn't make sense as they look like they were shoe-horned into the movie just to make a piece of crap look smarter or symbolic or both. The whole movie, by the end credits, was an incomprehensible mess that had something to do with revenge and the biker life.The cast was a waste of so much potential; here, we have the likes of Michael Madsen and Vinnie Jones just to name a few and while there are a number of cool character concepts, they were all wasted. Throughout the movie we're stuck with the incomprehensible Pistolero who comes across as a middle-aged fat man who's desperately trying to look cool instead of an aging biker gang leader with a dark past. None of the motivations the characters possessed are made even a bit clear just for the sake of comprehending the plot. What we get instead of interesting badass bikers are characters that waste time by spouting random trash dialogue that barely has relevance to the plot.HELL RIDE is an exercise in waste; not only are a cool concept and a couple of interesting character concepts wasted but so is the viewer's time and patience. I was waiting, hoping that maybe at some point the movie will pick up the pace and redeem itself but as the minutes dragged on, I slowly realized my mistake in gambling on this movie. Don't waste your time; look for something better to watch.

Quentin Tarantino's directorial career has been in steady decline ever since Pulp Fiction, but I still reckon it's a pretty desperate move to deliberately help others make crappy films just so that your own work looks better in comparison. And yet that is the only reason I can come up with for Tarantino producing biker flick Hell Ride, written, directed by, and starring Larry Bishop.A blatant attempt by Bishop to emulate QT's 'homage' style of movie-making, this embarrassingly inept piece of garbage uses every faux-grindhouse gimmick going in an attempt to be as cool as possible, but fails spectacularly thanks to a messy script that is virtually incomprehensible, a cast who fail to appreciate just how inane the movie's tongue twisting X-rated Seussian dialogue is, and abysmal direction from Bishop, who is as equally useless behind the camera as he is in front of it.As tough gang leader Pistolero, the perma-tanned Bishop is clearly having a good time, taking every opportunity to romp with big breasted bimbos a fraction of his age (assorted strippers and sluts, and a barmaid with some serious camel-toe), and co-stars Michael Madsen and Vinnie Jones look more than happy to have been asked along for the ride (Madsen should be pleased that he still gets acting gigs, period!). It's a shame, though, that those watching this crud won't be having anywhere near as much fun.
