Movie Review: Wild Hogs

I've wanted to see this for a while now and I've just realised that it is coming to the end of it's run in the cinema's. I've also heard they are filming a sequel. Normally I see the sequel but never get around to watching the first one (Bridget Jones Edge Of Reason, Oceans 12, American Pie Wedding). This time I wanted to do it in the right order.

Plot: A group of middle-aged friends who decide to rev up their routine suburban lives with a freewheeling motorcycle trip. Taking a long dreamed-of breather from their stressful jobs and family responsibilities, they can’t wait to feel the freedom of the open road.

When this mis-matched foursome, who have grown far more used to the couch than the saddle, set out for this once-in-a-lifetime experience - they encounter a world that holds far more than they ever bargained for. The trip begins to challenge their wits and their luck, especially during a chance run-in with the Del Fuegos, a real-life biker gang who are less than amused with their novice approach.

As they go looking for adventure, they soon find that they’ve embarked on a journey they will never forget.
