Jack F @MovieFan111 Jan 17 I watched it because it's a 17+ 1969 movie. It was slow, boring at times, and just plain weird, like during the tripping scene. But it is worth a watch and it's definitely one of those movies that defined the period it was made in. See more Farah R. @Farah Jan 14 Boring, slow, and uninteresting. See more Alexander S Oct 20 For those who admire vintage 1960s, Easy Rider is the ultimate love letter to motorcycling and the open road. This indie classic, which jump-started the careers of young filmmaker Peter Fonda and Burt Reynolds at the time, may have been born from a bygone era. Regardless of its unconventional ending, its memorable soundtrack, stunning cinematography, and countercultural spirit continue to captivate audiences who embrace bike culture and likely inspire new generations of free spirits. Grading: B+ See more Greg T Jul 20 Can’t understand why this movie ever won any awards. It’s amateurish at best. No storyline, no plot just 2 idiots riding their motorcycles across America having random encounters which are not believable. The things that take place you know straight away only happen in movies not in reality, making the movie even more irrelevant. 🙄 There are 1000 better movies worth watching before this movie that looks like it was filmed by a first time vlogger.

First, I'll point out that this film may have the best editing I've ever seen in a film. It was trippy and edited like nothing else I've ever seen, and that graveyard scene in the last act was haunting in how it was edited. Dennis Hopper definitely does a great job directing this film, and he gives a great performance too. Peter Fonda also does a great job and Jack Nicholson was the highlight of the film with acting in my opinion. And the soundtrack was one of the best I've seen in a good bit, all the music was perfect over those beautiful scenes of the bikes and the road. But the writing and commentary on America are what really makes this movie great. It was one of few films I've seen that felt truly American, it wasn't scared to point out the country's flaws but it still highlights all of the things that make this country great and beautiful. Easy Rider is a bold and audacious film that's not afraid to take risks, and has enough great writing and filmmaking to pull off all of them successfully. See more Read all reviews
