Rating: Summary: You're a rat! Yeah, the King Rat baby! Review: It's a real swingin' trip! Sonny rides a Sportster. Lot's of cool panheads too. Adam Rourke was a great man. He is missed by many.
Rating: Summary: A bike movie for bikers! Review: Kinda dated, but it has some classic chops and non-stop action. Nicholson is cool as the disaffected hero, and Adam Roarke is, well, Adam Rourke, a greatly under-rated talent.
Rating: Summary: Pre-Easy Rider Nicholson Review: Please don't listen to the people making clueless comments about this film. It was theatrically released in the 1960s and was seen as a departure from the standard AIP biker fare. Directed by Richard Rush, years before "Stunt Man," and featuring members of the Hells Angels, this film featured Jack Nicholson as a potential member of the Angels. There's little "action" and the fluid camera movement have led it to be known as "Hells Angels On Quaaludes." Not as bad as the other reviews have made it out to be.
Rating: Summary: Keep this one on the shelf Review: Simply long and terrible. I wish I could issue a negative star rating on this one.
Rating: Summary: A Ride of the Times Review: The non- actor bikers in this was not the Nomads or Angels. The Angels were only in the intro. The rest of the time they were played by the "MADCAPS" of Bakersfield. Look at the patch on the others in the bar fight scene. That says the name.
I ought to know. I was and am a "MADCAP".
Preacher
MADCAPS forever
Rating: Summary: Adam Roarke has BIGGER Screen presence than Nicholson! !!! Review: This is One of Those TRUE GUILTY PLEASURES !!! This even Seems Better then Corman's The Wild Angels Which came out Earlier, This movie shows more of the True Brotherhood of what its like to be in a Real Outlaw Biker Gang !!! There are Even real Hells Angel Alums in this film Like Sonny Barger and Adam Roarke...The Ending seems a little Hurried though, thats my only Gripe...Over all a Great Ride of a Film !!! :)
Rating: Summary: 2 thumbs up Review: this was a truly inquisitive and insiteful look into the lives of the outlaws of today. Nicholson was great in his performance. Although guite a different role than that of easyriders..
Rating: Summary: Hells Angels on Wheels Review: This was just the flick I was looking for. A "bare bones" biker movie (It didn't win an Oscar, like it really matters). Absolutely entertaining and down to earth, I loved it!! If you like "B-movies" get it.
Rating: Summary: It's the prequel to Five Easy Pieces! Review: What's not to love? Real Hell's Angels. Nicholson as Poet, the Rebel without a Past. Roarke as Buddy, the king rat. Shill, one of the best bad-biker-babes of them all. And Lazlo setting up the shots, just like he'll do later in Easy Rider. If you understand that, on the road, plot doesn't matter and friendships must end in fire, then this is your film.
