Boring, long, and too preachy.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

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.

The characters arent even believable as bikers, especially the guy who plays Cesar, that guy looks like a short fat women with a wig and fake beard. I guess it's hard for feminine men to try and play tough manly men. What a waste of time!!!

Overall I found this series to be quite good. The characters are believable and fairly true to the 1%ers I know.I however find the absolute disregard for helmet laws to be very immersion breaking, helmet laws in Aus came in during 1961 (Jan 1st 1961) and the real 1%ers I know did not disregard the helmet laws (it wasn't worth the police hassle), especially considering this is set during the late 70's early 80's as is displayed by the cars shown, the characters in this show would have grown up with helmet laws in place therefore the characters would be likely to abide by the laws regarding helmet use. The only scene where a character is shown prominently wearing a helmet is one where the helmet clearly served it's purpose, he was injured not dead after suffering a head meets road incident. It is also very much an Americanisation of the series.There is also a minor quibble that up until the mid-late 80's Harley's were not the bike of choice of the 1%ers it was generally heavily modified UJM's or British bikes.

I see Earl from Australia talking about the bikes and the film.As for the film,I have been a biker my whole life and first wore colours in 1971 and still do.I am also a film maker.The way they act on the film is just about dead on and as for the bikes.They are all Harley Shovel heads which were made from 1966 to 1984.None of the bikes are new and are all authentic to the period.In 84 they began building Evos and the switched to Twin Cam engines in 1998.They were Twin Cams in the harleys in 2011 so no you are wrong about the bikes.Those bikes are the bikes we road back in the 60s 70s and 80s.As for the Sportsters in the film,they were all period Iron Heads.Before you run things down maybe it would be wise to get your facts strait first.This was not bad film and it took me back to those days.It was very realistic in it's portral of bikers in the 70s and 80s.And as for Campbell,it isn't was but is as the Enforcer is still alive.

I watched two whole episodes just to make sure. This really is mostly terrible, best illustrated by one unfortunate piece of casting.Colin 'Caesar' Campbell was a big man, tall, broad shoulders, an imposing, perhaps threatening presence. He is portrayed here by Anthony Hayes, who is about as imposing as a teddy bear. He has narrow shoulders, a pot belly, he really isn't up to the job. He's not alone in that but, more than any other cast member, illustrates how this show falls so far short of anything remotely resembling a true portrayal of an outlaw motorcycle club.It's quite clueless. These rough, tough bikies, who mostly look like a bunch of nice middle-class youngsters after a biggish weekend, ride around on shiny new Harleys, straight off the shop floor in 2011. So there you go, how many telephone calls would it have taken to line up some authentic old motorcycles? One, if you rang the right place, it wouldn't be that hard.There are whole sequences where nothing happens, nothing is learned about the characters, the narrative grinds to a halt. There is the occasional brief flicker of a scene that isn't all that bad, usually featuring Callan Mulvey and Matt Nable , the two leads.Okay, so we've got some pedestrian direction and photography, a lousy script, woeful casting, fair-to-middling acting, some reasonable art direction and set direction, poor attention to relevant detail and an overall look and feel of the whole project being rushed along too quickly. So it's pretty much your standard Australian teev series.It's quite extraordinary in its own way. A show about bikies that is boring and mundane.
