This story begins with a new idea suggested by these people, where a group of middle-aged friends decide to stay away from routine suburban life on a free motorcycle ride. It's a journey that will change everything taking into account a long period of breathing from their stressful responsibilities and family responsibilities. Perhaps it can be very exciting through new adventures these young people are having on the open road.
Petrol-headed fifty-somethings into Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Allman Brothers will probably relate to some of the funnier scenes. The rest, including pre-teens, are advised to avoid it like el plago.
It's bland and forgettable; it'll probably do okay when it plays on a plane.

Wild Hogs really doesn't spend much time on the road. Good thing, too, because after the guys are found sleeping side-by-side and skinny-dipping together, the writers must have run out of homosexual panic jokes.
This could have been a City Slickers on cycles. But it's an incredibly lazy movie, from the on-the-nose casting to the soundtrack ('70s vintage road rock) to the script to the scouting of locations.
