Review Time

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/shooting/cutting/drugs/strangling/domestic violence/burning/vehicle crashed/stabbing/medical.

Our story begins in the 1960's: Danny [Mike Faist:] is a photographer/interviewer; interviewing Kathy [Jodie Comer:] about the Vandals Chicago motorcycle club as she has firsthand experience of this lifestyle as she meets her husband Benny one night; Benny [Austin Butler:] is a right-hand member of the Vandals Chicago, he is quiet presence, but also can be aggressive. The leader of the Vandals Chicago is Johnny [Tom Hardy:] a family man had the idea for a motorcycle club, but eventually as you will see his idea grew too big and too wild for him to handle.

Generally speaking: the framework is of a as I have already indicated documentary/biography [this film is based on real-life events] outlay, so it follows that outlay fluently as in it has a story to tell and with the pacing of this film which is roughly 116 minutes long been always moving, so there is always something going on, you really don't have time to get bored with this film in the slightest.

Performances and character developments; because of the framework and outlay being what it is; this is very much a cast performance driven film, spearheaded with Comer, Butler and Hardy, there are no weak performances from this cast, because if there was this is one of those occasions where they would stick out like a sore thumb. But this film doesn't have to worry about this potentially massive banana skin. The character developments are good versions of what they are meant to be, but and I can't stress this enough their performance make them complete characters/people with well roundness or/and depth.

Art, action and comedy; this project put across from time to time riding a motorcycle, be it the unity if you are willing that lifestyle of belonging to a motorcycle group or/and the feeling of freedom going through these landscapes, but if you're being chased by police, just make sure you don't run out of petrol.

This film receives: 9/10, this film is excellent; I have decided to award another mark based on the cast, I don't like section off the audiences, but in this case you can see where I am going with this; if this is your kind of thing you will enjoy this film, or if not still take a look at this film, but if you don't like this walk of life or anything to do with it, maybe this film is it for you. But having said that if you like the one or more of the trio I have mentioned still take a look at this film. This film has 1 award to its name; Mill Valley Film Festival 2023 Mill Valley Film Festival Directing Jeff Nichols.
