That was an excellent one.

Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

RUNNING COOL is a fun and cheesy action B-movie of the early 1990s, with bikers as the heroes of the hour. It reminded me of an A-TEAM episode a little, although with a slightly more adult tone in terms of violence, sexuality, and bad language. The underrated Andrew Divoff - best known for being a villain of choice in the likes of WISHMASTER - plays a biker hero who, along with his buddy Bear, go to help out a friend at the mercy of a ruthless businessman. Paul Gleason, so recognisable from his turn in DIE HARD, plays the villain of the piece. This is a lightweight and fun little movie, full of cheesy action scenes of our heroes beating up lunkheaded henchmen and the like. There's really not too much to it, but I found the atmosphere to be spot on and there's a high enjoyment factor present.

I caught this on cable and--although I have no connection to bikers whatsoever--I ended up not turning the channel and watching the whole thing through. It's definitely what you'd call a genre piece but it's a lot more enjoyable than you'd imagine. If you can take it as just a cool piece of Americana of a certain time and place, you'll have fun.The story begins in Sturgis, to introduce the characters and their culture, but quickly moves to the South for the majority of the plot. Our hero, Bone, must help an old friend raise money to save his small plot of family land--which happens to be on beautiful Southern wetlands--from the control of developers. He meets dangers and love along the way, as well as gaining an appreciation for the environment and a new sense of home. The characters are pretty much what you'd expect (i.e., not models of complexity a la French New Wave), but the biker characters are actually really appealing and attractively acted.Also, the town being portrayed is spelled Beaufort (South Carolina), to be irritatingly pedantic and add a slight correction to the summaries above.

The movie represented something that is needed in cinema, a movie depicting bikers as people rather than the stereotypical "outlaw trash". This moving shows a side that I am VERY aware of and that is the BROTHERHOOD OF BIKERS". Bikers are not all dirtbags or low lifes and with the popularity of Harleys especially most are a cut above the norm. The comment from the reviewer from the UK shows this individual knows less than jack about bikers or motorcycles or the love of the sport. The movie's fight scenes were entertaining rather than the "cartoonish" fight scenes from "hong kong kung fu movies" where people fly around pagodas with the greatest of ease. The leads where great, Bone, Michelle, Ironbutt, and Bear lending a truer edge than the likes of the cheappie biker/wacko movies of the sixties. I sit and watch it all the time with my family although I do edit some of the language. I HIGHLY recommend the film!!

I enjoyed this movie a lot. It dose show a lot of truth about how bikers really are and how they are treated. I would recommend this movie for anyones biker movie collection.I like the way it brings the community together to try and preserve the wet lands.Some people just have a narrow mind about how bikers really are. They did pick a good person to play Mr. Hogg. He was also in the Breakfast club and played the bad guy very well.I think that some of the fight scenes are quite realistic not the cinema version of what a fight is. The plot dose take a little time to unroll but I think that it is well done.
