38This startlingly lame tale about a young upstart challenging a veteran leader of the pack doesn't update the genre, it simply recasts it.
-
38Though it's only 90 minutes, the film drags, making these not-so-easy riders pretty tough to watch.
-
38However you pronounce Bythewood -- I assume it's by-the-wood -- his work here is strictly by the numbers.
-
30There's not enough fast and even less furious.
-
30Could and should have been a giddy, tongue-in-cheek action-comedy romp. Instead, it's a meandering action-drama, in which nearly all of the abundant laughs are unintentional.
-
Has the stink of man-musk all over it.
-
30This motorcycle melodrama is so stupid that during the press screening my colleagues' laughter threatened to drown out the roar of the engines.
-
25Guy flicks can be just as galling as the chick variety. Here's Exhibit A in how to lose an audience in ten minutes.
-
Unintentional comedy that will bore even the 15-year-olds at which it is undoubtedly aimed.
-
25More "the mild one" than "The Wild One."
-
The obvious idea is to stage a motorcycle version of "The Fast and the Furious." Instead we get the flat and the tedious.
-
Too bad that when the filmmakers aren't busy accommodating cameo models and comedians, they seem to be dozing off at the handlebars. Luckily, we're watching from a different side of the highway.

20The movie is so sloppily written and directed that its bits of bluster never cohere.
