Well That Was Brutal 😳

The Bikeriders finally came out last week after being delayed and switching distributers less than a year ago. Basically the movie version of Sons Of Anarchy (but a little bit more brutal), the film centers on a motorcycle club known as the Vandals. And things get very very ugly.

The movie was great, and probably the most brutal movie I've seen all year. A good majority of these scenes were so hard to watch (physically and emotionally). Whether it's someone (mostly Austin's character Benny) taking a beating or other disturbing shenanigans. The dynamic in the club in my opinion is slightly less loving than SOA. While there is loyalty and care for one another in the club, I feel like they were slightly more reckless then SAMCRO. Not only within the club, but outside as well. The newer members in particular were kind of cruel, especially in an incident involving Jodie Comer's character Kathy. Though I will say that Tom Hardy's Johnny (the leader) is less sadistic than Clay; albeit he did make some questionable choices. There was also somewhat of an unexpected twist in the movie as well.  

The acting was good. Hardy embraced his inner Marlon Brando while Austin embraced his inner James Dean (which is perfect considering he's often compared to Dean). Jodie Comer was also good. Actually, her and Austin pulled off an accent EXTREMELY well, Comer especially. I'm surprised by those two because Comer is obviously British (so braking that might not be easy) and Austin has now played with his voice and succeeded 3 times. Hardy (who also had an accent) was the best out of everybody. I found him kind of creepy but also redeemable. 

I really liked this movie. But brace yourself for some messed up moments. Thanks For Reading.
