Wild Hogs Movie Review

Meet Woody Stevens(John Travolta),a middle-aged man who finds his finds his life constantly falling apart. Something that is hard for any person--especially a middle-aged man.

So,wanting a bright light to shine in his life,Woody Stevens makes a last minute decision. That last minute decision? To go on a cross country road trip with his three closest friends(Tim Allen's character of Doug Madsen,Martin Lawrence's character of Bobby Davis,and William H. Macy's character of Dudley Frank)who don't have the greatest lives at the present moment,either. There will be no rules--just fun,exploration,and adventures.

However,in the middle of the trip,faulty trouble arises. Once Woody Stevens,Doug Madsen,Bobby Davis,and Dudley Frank arive at a motorcycle bar out in New Mexico(out in the middle of nowhere,I might add),it turns out that they are at a bar full of a motorcycle gang,the Del Fuegos. The leader,Jack(Ray Liotta)does not like the Wild Hogs,while he is not afraid to show it. At the same time,Woody Stevens went on a roadtrip for fun,not for trouble or rudeness.

The result? Trouble that Woody Stevens,Doug Madsen,Bobby Davis,and Dudley Frank are going to have to lightly get themselves out of,and an inequitable "test" upon them,as well.

The script for "Wild Hogs" successfully brings the film's plot to life. Everything appropriately leads to one thing after another. The humor in "Wild Hogs" is well-written and enjoyable,bringing viewers good laughs along the way that one would expect out of any comedy film. There is,at the same time,an appropriate amount of fun. Drama is successfully worked in the script for "Wild Hogs",while the "edge" that the film requires allows itself to be successfully executed,at the same time. All of this in "Wild Hogs" is well accompanied by the famous cast(Travolta,Allen,Lawrence,Macy,Liotta,and Marisa Tomei),as well as their performances at the same time. "Wild Hogs" gives John Travolta,Tim Allen,William H. Macy,Martin Lawrence,Ray Liotta,and Marisa Tomei fair and wortwhile time in the spotlight,while all six of them work together successfully and respectfully. Having dramatic actors work alongside comedic actors in one film isn't the easiest thing to do,but in "Wild Hogs",it successfully happens. All of this allows "Wild Hogs" to fully come together,and be the good and successful film that it is.

If you were one of several people that saw "Wild Hogs" upon its release and were impressed,this DVD will leave you happy. The bonus feautures on this DVD ("Bikes,Brawls,and Burning Bars:The Making of "Wild Hogs"","How To Get Your WIfe To Let You Buy a Motorcycle",the freewheeling alternate ending for "Wild Hogs",deleted scenes,top-notch outtakes,and an audio commentary with the director and writer of "Wild Hogs",Walt Becker and Brad Copeland),are insightful. If you want to know more about the making of "Wild Hogs",the special feautres on this DVD will successfully do just that for you.

Overall,if you like comedy,turn to "Wild Hogs". You will be pleased with the comedy in "Wild Hogs",as well as the film itself and the elements that make it memorable,fun,and of course,funny.
