Having read a number of reviews of this movie, I wasn't expecting anything too brain-taxing. Which is lucky, because I didn't have to think much.
Wild Hogs is all about 4 middle-aged men who decide to go on a road trip with their motorbikes in order to try and reclaim the freedom of their youth. And that's pretty much it. The second half of the plot sees them end up in the town of Madrid (in small-town USA, not central Spain) for various reasons, but the movie never loses its focus on this being about four middle-aged men trying to reclaim their youth.
As long as you know what you're getting is a fairly tongue-in-cheek, slapstick kind of a movie, you'll probably be happy with Wild Hogs. All the actors play up to their movie star personas, so if you like any of them in other movies, you should like them in this too.
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
