Wild Hogs Reviews

I watched 'Wild Hogs' because there were Tim Allen and John Travolta in it, they aren't half-bad but unfortunately the rest of the cast (especially Martin Lawrence, William H. Macy and Ray Liotta) are pretty obnoxious

The story is weak and apart from a few funny parts, the only good scene is the fight near the end , the rest of it (especially the swimming scene where they all strip naked ) isn't so funny and rather stupid

John Travolta made some pretty bad mistakes in the 2000s ('Battlefield Earth' for example), at least here, he didn't play an alien that doesn't even look one and just looks like a smelly, ugly creep

To conclude, 'Wild Hogs' is just another worthless comedy and really not worth watching

Definitely in my Top 5 Worst Movies ever. Not only was it NOT funny but it was completely homophobic and stupid.

Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from this flick but since it was a surprise success when it was released, I thought I might as well give it a try. To be honest, it is actually a rather lame story. I mean, at the end of the day, it all depends if you can stand the actors involved or not. For me, it was basically a mixed bag. One one hand, there was John Travolta, William H. Macy and Marisa Tomei who are always watchable and entertaining in my opinion. However, on the other hand, you had Martin Lawrence who is usually just ok and, above all, you had also Tim Allen who is never but really never interesting at all in any movie he has been involved with. Basically, it is one of these movies which manage to attract an audience thanks to a star-studded cast even though the movie itself is not really that good (in fact, on its opening weekend, it was number 1 at the box-office and nearly tripled the debut of fellow opener ‘Zodiac’ which is rather depressing when you think about it). Anyway, to conclude, the end result is a rather average and predictable comedy but, I have to admit it, it was actually not bad at all and still entertaining enough.

First of all, don't listen to all the negative reviews on this film, because they will lead you in the wrong direction. This film is full of constant laughs, and a pretty entertaining story. Critics often target the negative aspects.

The plot is really very basic, with a few middle aged friends embarking on a cross country motorcycle trip. They need to get away, due to the family stress, and their wives nagging them. This movie stars some great actors: John Travolta, Martin Lawrence, William H. Macy, Ray Liotta, and a few others. They weren't in their complete prime, but they still performed very well, and really impressed me.

Wild Hogs is a highly underrated, very good comedy, that I highly recommend to most viewers, with the exception of people that criticize a film that tries to have fun. Enjoy the movie for what it is. This movie is worth the watch, and is loads of fun.

8.0/10

"You screwed up their lives? And by doing that, you decided to screw up our lives? Asshole!"

Wild Hogs is a film that received an appalling reception from the critics. The critics fundamentally tore it to pieces and fed its readers nothing but horrible comments. I approached Wild Hogs (on a recommendation) with caution because of the critics and found myself being pleasantly surprised.

The film is harmless entertainment with a few good laughs that is destined to provide some decent entertainment for the family. I cannot believe the critics disliked the film so much; I thought it supplied a healthy dosage of quality laughs. The first minute already had me in stitches!

Four middle-aged American blokes decide to take a break from their hectic lives, shake off all their responsibilities and hit the road on their bikes to experience "the real America". (Easy Rider, anyone?) Travelling on the road from Cincinnati to the Pacific, the men call themselves the 'Wild Hogs' (and therein lies the title, logically enough). The men come across a biker bar during their travels. While trying to fit in with the rest of the more "official" bikers they are made extremely unwelcome. These (rather clichéd) bunch of bikers then begin hunting the Wild Hogs after an incident that leaves them quite unhappy.

I thought for the most part Wild Hogs was absolutely hilarious. The first half contained all the best laughs and witty lines of dialogue. The second half didn't manage to maintain the same quality and charm that had been established. But of course there are still a number of great laugh-out-loud moments to be experienced the whole way through.

The four central cast members are fantastic! They have all pretty much passed their prime; however this is more suiting to the characters they portray. And face it: this is far better than any of the rubbish comedies that Tim Allen still continues to make in bulk. I never expected to see Ray Liotta pop up in a comedy like this. Someone of his stature actually helped the film quite a bit.

Script and direction are all standard for the genre. I liked the script for the most part; it contains some great hilarious dialogue and great moments. I just wished that they would have taken more time to remove all the clichés and conventions that shamelessly appear to no end. The second half is incredibly predictable! It's to be expected, but it's a shame that no contemporary comedies attempt to stay away from the typical clichés.

At the end of the day; Wild Hogs is a total hoot. The script contains lots of clichés as well as a number of great laughs that make the whole film worth watching.

The film is the furthest thing from a deep and meaningful experience; it's harmless entertainment that is a fun way to spend 90 minutes with the family. If you're looking for a masterpiece then I suggest you go rent something else. Wild Hogs is a comedy that is definitely worth a few screenings.

Wow, this movie wasn't funny at all. What was funny however was seeing 4 fading Hollywood stars try to resurrect their careers via midlife crisis cross country motorcycle rides. It was a little to real for those actors and not funny to me.

Okay, so first off when i saw a preview for this movie i thought it would be one of those 'comedies' that try to be funny but turn out really lame ..i was wrong. Wild Hogs is hillarious! Though there were still parts that could have had improvement, most of it was great!!

Oh, and by the way it was a great choice of cast! Four amazing [and hillarious] guys together in one film! What can go wong??

Even just by watching the first 30 seconds you can tell its gonna be funny, i definetly recommend this!

This is a movie that isn't going to be in the running for any major awards this year. Now after saying that I have to say I did have a lot of fun watching this movie. I took my kids to it and we laughed through the whole movie. We had a really good time. The comedy is a lot of goofy slapstick, but the guys pull it off real well. This is one that the whole family will enjoy.
