Summary: Great sound on DVD
Review: Just listened to the DVD on my Dolby Digital (5.1) system, and the remastering is sensational. I have most of the soundtrack cuts on CD, but the versions here are much better. Excellent cinematography is more apparent on DVD than on video, as well. Documentary on the making of the film is very interesting... don't miss it. Didn't have time to listen to Hopper's commentary (other than a few minutes), but am taping it now and will check it out later. Great package!

Summary: Easy Rider is Okay in my Book
Review: I don't know where the previous review supposedly written by Ken Kesey came from but I can state categorically and totally qualified, I never wrote that review and I have always spoken very highly of the movie; loved Dennis Hopper and Nicholson and Fonda. The ending was a bummer but "don't bogart that joint" will forever be a part of American jargon. "Going down the highway, looking for adventure . . . born to be wi--ld, born to be wi-ld." Great stuff. A 60's classic.

Summary: really good
Review: I was too young to watch it first time round. I watched it twice this weeek on dvd, and am sort of hooked on it. It has the same effect on me as 9 1/2 weeks. Weird scenes, great music, and adventerous. I liked Fonda. It makes you want to hire a Harley and blow a small fortune for a month in the west. The ending was terrible. What is the point they were trying to make with this ending ?

Summary: The movie that defined the "60's"
Review: This movie is one of those movies that just freezes a moment in time! Three legendary actors in one of the most socially honest movies ever written. I just didn't like the ending!

Summary: Easy Rider is the best movie that was made before I was born
Review: This movie is about two guys who get a lot of money from a drug deal and decide to take a tour of America on two Harley Davidson motorcycles circa 1969. They get into a lot of adventures that include meeting a hick Jack Nickolson. This movie was wierd and that is why I liked it so much. It wasn't wierd in a dumb way. It made you think. Not a lot of movies do that to me, but this one did. The movie had a message when it was released for it's time. Now it's just a great movie. This movie has lots of grass smoking and an acid trip and they did it all in a cool way. Not blatantly like some movies do with drugs. If you have an open mind and don't mind seeing how the other side think and live then you will like this film. I've seen it three times. One last thing. Great music. From Jimmy Hendrix to The Byrds they have a lot of killer rock tunes.

Summary: Those who don't get it...can't get it.
Review: I shall not bore you with polysyllabic puffery. Easy Rider is a small documentation of what life was like in the 60's. If you are one to question the very basis of our culture and the system, check this movie out! Never again will a movie be so unprecedented in its truth that it emulates fiction. Hint, hint Blair Witch.

Summary: So Bad it's good
Review: This film should be purchased to play in the background at parties. It is a strange fantasy film with some good music. Terrible acting and as far from reality as you could get. But for some reason I like the film.

Summary: laughably bad!!
Review: This is one of those wierd-ass sixties films where you would have had to have been there to really care.The plot; two guys riding on a motorcyle. Well, whoopty-doodily-ding-dong......

Summary: Just gettin my thing together
Review: First saw "Easy Rider" when I was but a small child. Since that day, I dreamed of riding a motorcycle...my dream eventually came true with a new Harley many years back. "Easy Rider" is more than just a film, it is a statement of a time and place, a belief system that has been passed over. It is one of the few American films that encompasses an entire collective viewpoint of the turbulent time period of the 60s. I strongly suggest any fans of this film seek out the Laserdisk as it contains running commentary from both Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda. This commentary is insightful to the time as well as the various filming issues, and probably hard to find. "Easy Rider" is easily one of the ten best films ever.

Summary: Still an entralling movie for today's youth
Review: This classic 1969 film, directed by the at times brilliant Dennis Hopper and starring the flippant Peter Fonda in a dazzling performance, represents many issues that are still relevant today. A young Jack Nicholson poignantly displays an intelligent man living in a simple minded society. Through rose colored glasses, many truisms about society then and today are represented. So in all an enthralling film displaying the drug culture of the 60's and the ignorance in society that will in a majority of cases turn to violence.
