Absolutely Fantastic
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Between Evil Dead 2 and Darkman, the Raimi brothers wrote this film. It is supposed to be a parody of those biker films playing at the drive-ins in the 60s - the Airplane! of biker flicks.The leader of the Bourne Losers Bruce (Paul Le Mat) and his buddies are looking for another group of bikers known as the The Woman of the Wolves, led by She Wolf (Eileen Davidson), who are being suspected of stealing babies and selling them on the black market.It's a comedy for fans of the Raimi's. The doo wop version of Rock of Ages made it all worthwhile.How do you know it's a parody? Easy, all the biker chicks look like they stepped out of Vogue.
This is not your typical biker film. It is not your typical film period. The closest parallel would be the makers of Airplane or Police Squad do a biker film.The leader of the Bourne Losers biker gang, Bruce (Paul Le Mat) is often so eloquent that his buddies don't understand what he his saying. They are trying to stop the The Woman of the Wolves female biker gang whose leader, She Wolf, was raised by wolfs after her parents abandoned her is in the woods while being chased by the police. The Woman of the Wolves are stealing babies and selling them to the black market.Needless to say much trouble ensues and it is a field day for one liners, zingers and stuff you would not normally see bikers doing. Like a female biker beating a male biker after he took the baby she stole and she delivers the line "Never take a baby from Candy" while she also delivers a beating.Not a bad film for 1989 and it will make you laugh. Check it out if there is nothing else to rent at blockbuster, you need to fill out your Netflix queue or it is on cable.
The reviews decrying this film seem to have genuinely missed the fact that it's a comedy. Sure, all of it is deadpan but really, a biker gang who do a great doo-wop Rock Of Ages? A guy whose mudwrestler girlfriend gets into laundromat machines after work? It's a comedy, folks.The reviewers complaining of the lack of action scenes or soft porn might as well level the same criticisms at Airplane. Indeed, Airplane's a good point of reference with the straight-faced humour, visual gags and touches of surrealism.It plays on many 'good guys seeking out the evil-doers' clichés, and simultaneously on fated-lovers clichés too. The funniest stuff is in the way it plays with gender role and 'wrong side of the tracks' stereotypes.The great and eminently quotable cheesy dialogue and the constant overloud leather-creak whenever anyone moves keep it relentlessly funny from start to finish.If you like the comic edge of Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell's work in The Evil Dead you'll love this film. If, however, you thought Evil Dead was a straight zombie flick then you'll probably miss the point with this too.
Easy Wheels is one of those great independent low-budget films. The movie is nararated from the point of view of a reporter who is rescued by the bikers from a car accident. The leader of the Bourne Losers Bruce (Paul Le Mat) and his buddies are looking for another group of bikers known as the The Woman of the Wolves who are being suspected of stealing babies and selling them on the black market. This movie I laughed throughout. Some younger viewers may not get all the jokes, but I think most adults will get the jokes. I recommend this movie to people who drive and/or like biker movies. I also recommend this film to people who like to laugh a lot.10/10
