Summary: Easy Rider 2
Review: A great picture from a couple of women who seemed to have poured their hearts out. This is a film for anyone who has taken a road trip to exorcise some personal demons. Great scenery, fun secondary characters, and a nice slant on some modern social problems. watch to the end of the credits for some vengence we have been waiting 30 years to see.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Well at least it's a motorcycle movie
Review: As motorcycle movies go, this one is okay. There were a couple items I thought distracted from the plot and weakened the climax of a movie that had potential. The in-your-face drug use was excessive and the fact that every character was either a junky or a wife beater was just too cliched. And the climax of finding the Easy Rider bike is so lame, it voided the complete plot of the movie. And why can't a motorcycle movie be shot at a location where the rocky mountains isn't a constant backdrop? How about making a move about the Dragon's Tail in North Carolina or Route 66 or anywhere but California? If you can find the CD used and you're a motorcycle die-hard like me, it's worth it.

Summary: Don't Bother
Review: Could not even watch the whole thing through to the end

Summary: easyrider copied
Review: For those old enough to have experienced Easyrider (1969), Me and Will holds no new vibes. However, that does not qualify this movie negatively. Admittedly interwoven with Easyrider, Me and Will provides good entertainment for a far bigger audience than motorbike-adepts. Its logic and appealing story refers to freedom and escape from daily routines. Its shots are fine, in particular those from the American countryside. For the fans of Traci Lords: she has a tiny role as a waitress, and does well.

Summary: Two women bikers search for their souls on the road.
Review: Here we have a movie with an honest-to-Goddess STORY moving it along. No explosions, no gunfire, no special effects, no car chases. Just a damned good movie about two women who hit the road on their motorcycles, and find their souls while surfing the asphalt.

Melissa Behr and Sherrie Rose [motorcycle enthusiasts in real life] teamed up to write, produce, direct, AND star in ME AND WILL. It's the story of two women, Will and Jane--- burned out from the LA club-and-drug scene---who meet in rehab. They decide to set off on a Holy Mission: To find the chopper ridden by Peter Fonda in EASY RIDER. So they bust out of rehab and point their Harleys toward Montana, where Will is certain the Captain America bike has been stored lo these many years.

Will and Jane struggle with personal demons as they ride. Besides the temptation to use drugs, there are lingering "family of origin" problems which haunt them. Their friendship grows as they open up to each other, help each other, and encounter a variety of unusual---and sometimes frightening---people on the road.

Speaking of the road, get ready for some spectacular scenery. And the road sequences are set to some great tunes; anyone who sees these scenes and isn't tempted to jump on a Harley and head out on that highway probably has their spirit up on blocks.

In the end, things work out as they often do in real life: A spirit-lifting victory, albeit a victory intermingled with a poignant loss. Be sure to watch the credits all the way through, because there's a surprise second ending well worth waiting for...

If this film doesn't go down in history as the female EASY RIDER I'll be very surprised. And disappointed.

Summary: This is no Easy Rider
Review: I had high hopes for this movie but they blew it. It's just a story of two losers with bikes. Yes, Easy Rider could be characterized that way but at least it was thought provoking and the characters had some depth. This is "just watch two bimbos ride around and get in trouble." I also felt the film went a little too far in the explicit scenes of drug use and they made it look a little too cool through most of the movie. I'm afraid girls with some money will try to imitate. Understandably, the movie did not receive wide distribution so little damage was probably done.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Me and Will
Review: I noticed that the site for selling this video has left my name out as a co-star. Please ad my Name starring Sherrie Rose and Melissa Behr! Thank you very much. This is a story of two women, we worked three hard years, a complete labor of love. I hope everyone enjoys it.

Summary: Melissa -- you DO deserve some credit!
Review: I thought this movie was wonderful! My boyfriend and I (both huge biker enthusiasts) rented it one night just to see what it was -- we had not heard anything about it. I have to say I was very intrigued by the story, and my boyfriend and I neither one said a word during the whole movie. After it was over, the only thing to say was "wow". I think it is one of the best movies he and I have seen in the last year. In fact, I'm ordering the DVD -- and Melissa, you are credited on that page!
