Summary: A Classic That is Actually Good
Comment: If you are looking for a realistic portrayal of biking culture, go elsewhere. If you can enjoy a movie and overlook people riding bikes on a soundstage, this video rocks!
I show this to my middle school students for Social Studies, and they love it. It's fun, and does not take itself too seriously. The stock characters and overacting start out great, but when the town descends into chaos and the inevitable vigilantism rises up they won't let me stop. I've seen it ten times, and still enjoy it.
The DVD itself is well done, and has stood the test of several viewings. I'm not a big Brando fan, but he does have a presence. Lee Marvin is hilarious.

Summary: The Best
Comment: "The Wild One" and not "Easy Rider" is the classic of bad boy motorcycle flicks (Sonny Barger of the Hells Angels describes Easy Rider as a movie about two dope dealers, not about bikers).
This is a fun flick with the best part, IMHO, the viewer being able to retro back to the classic bikes and biker clothing of the 1950s. Brando and Lee Marvin play great little roles and as many believe it is Lee Marvin whose character is the forerunner of the 1960s outlaw motorcyclist in tenor and tone.
Well worth the money and a keeper for the DVD shelf library.

Summary: The movie of how it all started
Comment: The Movie that every motorcycle enthusiast should see. Sometimes I think the attitude hasn't changed that much... The story of how it all started. My biker movie collection is now complete. "We don't ride just any one place, that's cornball style".
