Default new biker movie

Saw this trailer for a new movie called Wild Hogs. It stars Tim Allen, William H. Macy, Martin Lawrence, and John Travolta. It appears that these 4 upper-middle class suburbanite guys are having midlife issues and decide to go for a ride. So they decide to do a cross-country ride where they run into the Del Fuegos (apparently a real life gang) and the gang takes issue with their "novice approach" (story from movie website). It actually looks half-way decent. I guess someone finally decided to do a little tongue-in-cheek comedy at all the suburban upper middle class bike riders. Not saying anything is wrong with that.

Great ! Hollywood cranking out a stupid film reinforcing the "HarleyEquals Midlife Crisis" sterotype.

I don't know, but I think this is better than portraying bikers as a bunch of thugs and punks that don't give a f about anybody or anyone. Personally, I am not near that age as to suffer from a midlife crisis, but better that than the other. But, your entitled to your opinion.

Stereotypes of any sort,whether they be positive or negative tend to bore me,I only watch a small handful of movies in any given year.
