this movie is about a man who is the only survivor of a bloody motorcycle war and is bent on escaping the law and his past, only to end up in the middle of another motorcycle war. this movie is about redemption as this time he sides with the good (a group of native americans fighting for their land) against men who are shadows of himself.

If the acting had been better anf the plot had less holes this could have been a truly great biker flick. As it is the movie is entertaining, despite its problems, but no great find.

The hero of this movie is called "Bolt" (Richard Grieco) he comes with his motorcycle to a place owned by some indian. Bolt asks for motorcycle parts, but at the same time he is offered a job, fixing cars. Bolt helps the family out in a war against the motorcycle gang who wants the place. At the same time he helps the family, he falls in love with the daughter of the family (Sean Young). Bolt and the leader of the gang Billy Niles (Michael Ironside) are seen in a fight at the end of the movie "Jersey Style" as they said... like "chicken race"...but with chains and knives used to hurt the passing foe...

The movie was otherwise one of the best road movies I've seen. but it was sloppy made... the voice on someplaces was so low, that I had to turn the sound louder than normal... and the brightness changed on one or two places too even as the persons and scenery didn't move...(editing error?!)

the lenght of the movie is 1:28:44 instead of 93minutes that is written on the cover of the movie.

This movie is really bad. The acting is plain awful except Michael Ironside. I don't get the story. Richard Grieco is the only survivor after a fight between two Mc-gangs. He comes to a town and suddenly he is choosened to fight against the bad people who wants indian-land. At the cover it said he was a indian himself that returned too his home-town, I didn't hear that in the movie, if so it wasn't clear.

Richard Grieco was one hell of a bad actor. Stiff and ugly. He said his lines like it too. And we wouldn't talk about Sean Young, she hasn' been any of my favourite actors but in this movie she plays a indian women who falls in love with Bolt (Grieco). She is awful.

When I rented it I choosed between this and Subterfuge with Amanda Pays. I choosed this one because of Michael Ironside was in the cast. Maybe I should have taken Subterfuge.

Don't see this unless you think Richard Grieco looks tough on a motorbike with sunglasses.
