Easy Wheels (1989)

Simply Perfect

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The acting in this movie is really good.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

When I was a kid I would sneak out of my room when everyone was asleep. Being as quiet as possible would turn on & watch Monstervision or Up All Night. This was one of those late night gems they showed on Up All Night. Those were the nights and shows I miss now of days. Svengoolie's show comes somewhat close as far as late night bad movies. I remember laughing at it, and enjoying it. Even some of the humour reminded me of Young Einstein. I sat there watching this and I liked it. I know a lot of people rip on me for enjoying movies that are kind of bad. One thing I enjoyed was the fact they showed bikers in a good way. Everything now is trying to be all Son's of Anarchy and bikers being tough. In this movie they were the good guys. The Born Losers do live up to there name when it comes to fighting WOW. When I seen this I didn't know who everyone was. I was a kid I liked the blond headed biker & thought he was cute. I didn't know that was the same guy from Puppet Master, and American Graffiti. We didn't have the internet so you would have to read the credits back then & remember names. I found this movie on Youtube. I was Googling movies parts and stuff that I remember seeing. I typed in the ending fight scene, rock of ages, and poof there was my answer Easy Wheels.I sat down and watched this movie on YouTube through my the Xbox recently. There was a lot I forgot and some that came back to me as I was watching. In the movie there are two gangs there's the Born Losers, and Women of the Wolf. This was the late 80's and early 90's so the fluffy hair was in fashion. The fights seem kinda corny, there was some humour them. I found myself laughing at the bar scene when the WOW bikers beat up Ted Raimi. Some of the lines are still bad, but I still I chuckled at a few of them. Another actor I recognized in the movie was Ben Stein as a preacher. I liked Mark Holton's character Animal. I busted out laughing when he starts sniffing the air and says "Cheap perfume, sweaty leather, women, sniffs 3 women in heat". Another line was when Professor tells the Reporter "Locate the evil, destroy the evil, and find a great tasting light beer". This is one of those funny movies you can not take to serious. The plot is evil do'ers kidnapping babies to sell and few of them to be raised by wolves. If you like funny, hero bikers, with laughs, and a good story. I would recommend watching movies like Bikers of Menace, or Running Cool. This movie lives up to the 80's biker movies. It's well worth a watch, maybe a laugh or two. Anyway still happy I finally found a re-watched it again.

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.

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

Not even Hell's Angels' wild women in hot leather could save this from burning rubber on the road! EASY WHEELS stands out okay as a satire of biker / exploitation movies, and not as stupid or sleazy as you'd expect from the late 60s. Still, I'm not gonna get all hyped up about smutty women who prove their sense of superiority over the male crowd, nor the tough men wanting sexual desires over the women. The movie seems told on two different points of view here, making this very incoherent. Are the producers really too afraid to make a true feminist biker flick? It worked well for SHE-DEVILS ON WHEELS, only on a sleaze state of mind. Biker movies, on the other hand, have seen their day, and although this appeared to have revived the genre a while back, it stales on anything new and original. Not bad, but this wasn't my can of beer. Look for Ben Stein as a church minister.
