    ★ 10/10

    Oh, by no means is this a good film. But it is a fun film. It hits all the tropes of it's genre and most of them in the biker genre and does so in an entertaining enough way to keep everyone amused. The acting ranges from actually really good to absolutely horrible, the violence is over the top, the script is as sleazy and grungy as the bikers they depict, and plot itself makes absolutely no sense at all. You don't have to think about this film, and if you do it takes away from the enjoyment. But, it is a really fun movie to watch.
