Still a powerful indictment of 1960s nihilism

By Brian Camp on June 29, 2002

Format: VHS Tape

Watching THE WILD ANGELS (1966) recently for the first time in over two decades, I was struck by how powerful and relevant it still seems. Unlike some of the more starry-eyed counterculture films of the late 1960s, this one captured quite vividly the nihilism of the era and the dark side of the 1960s. The first film about the Hell's Angels motorcycle club and initiator of a short-lived but popular biker film craze, it presents its Harley-riding characters as cases of arrested development, unable to cope in the adult world, who have managed to form their own social class of outcasts, drunks, losers and misfits. (The real Hell's Angels sued the filmmakers for defamation of character.) The film avoids blatant moralizing, but simply shows the Angels' erratic behavior, contrasting the brutality, misogyny and pot- and alcohol-induced hedonism of the men with the occasional bursts of empathy and self-awareness shown by their female partners. In fact, one of the most compelling aspects of the film today is the work of the four main actresses, Nancy Sinatra, Diane Ladd, Gayle Hunnicutt and Joan Shawlee, neither of whom, on first glance, would seem to belong in such a film. But they all strive to make their characters plausible, believable and human, even in the most demeaning circumstances, and add emotional layers that distinguish the film from its numerous imitators. Also worth singling out is Peter Fonda's portrayal of Blues, the Angels' nominal leader, whose dawning realization of his own tragic blunders provides the true heart of the film.
Also striking about the film today is its depiction of a thoroughly desolate Southern California landscape far from Los Angeles.Read more ›

The original biker movie

By A Customer on February 11, 2004

Format: DVD

I'm not a movie critic, I'm a motorcyclist. I have this film on video and watch it fairly often, along with Beyond The Law, Hells Angels on Wheels and Angels Hard As They Come (the most underrated of biker flicks). Fonda, Dern, Ladd, Buck Taylor and Norman Alden are great. Nancy Sinatra was terrible and totally miscast, if she' repudiating this movie it's due to her terrible acting. I can't see Micheal J. Pollard as a biker (but he was wonderful in Little Fauss and Big Halsy). The star of this movie is Fonda's chopper, to me, it's more beautiful, and subltly understated, than that ultimate movie chopper in Easy Rider, the Captain America Bike. This movie is really about Heavenly Blue's changing values as his friend Loner dies. Girlfriend Sinatra realizes the change that's come over him, "it's like a piece of you went with him". He reveiws his life and sees it empty, without purpose without his closest compadre The Loser, as in the final line "there's no where to go" as he stays to bury his friend while others flee The Man. They go on to continue the life of carousing and hell raising while Blues follows through on a duty to a friend, and to me symbolically buries himself, his up-to-then life, as well as his only friend.

The Original Infamous Biker Flick (I'm not sure if I should rate it 2 or 5 Stars)

By Wuchak on October 17, 2004

Format: DVD

Like most people I've seen "Easy Rider" (1969), Peter Fonda's infamous drug-culture biker flick, but I haven't seen any of the other similar films from the '60s. Since "The Wild Angels" was available cheap I decided to enlighten myself to this Grade B film genre.

The first half hour or so is quite good. The Southern California locations and cinematography are incredible and the story is compelling. In fact, the film's worth owning for these elements alone (the scenic footage was shot in Mecca, Idyllwild and Palm Desert, California). The last 55 minutes can be shocking and tedious, however, if you're not psyched-up for it.

This latter portion of the film involves the death of Fonda's best friend, "The Loser," and his funeral & burial. The movie tends to bog down during these segments wherein the only thing that catches your attention (or wakes you up) is the utterly mean-spirited and criminal behavior of the "Angels."

I'm a big Marlon Brando fan so I've seen "The Wild One" from 1954, the original biker flick; but the worst that Brando & his gang do is brawl, drink and chew gum (gasp!). This may be "wild" perhaps but certainly not mean-spirited or criminal.

"The Wild Angels" was filmed only 12 years later, so I'm thinking 'How "wild" can they be?' Surprise, surprise as Fonda's gang members are WAY beyond merely wild & free (which is how they're depicted in the first half hour), they're totally wicked imbeciles (although Fonda's character, Heavenly Blues, is portrayed in the film merely as the epitome of 'cool').

Want proof? The Angels break into the hospital to "free" the Loser and he ends up dying for lack of proper medical care for his critical wounds. They make sure to get him high before he dies though.Read more ›

Movie is Hollywood Elite: Sons and Daughters trying desparately to act like "Hells Angels"- Camp,good for a few chuckles!

By Boz on July 9, 2015

Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase

I saw this as a kid in the theaters and felt "peer presured"to think this was "cool".Hollywood was pushing the "biker cultues"through many "B" movies that include "Easy Rider".This one basically "promotes"the life style of the "Hells Angels" in the 60's.What struck me as "funny"was the
propaganda spewed forth wanting to make "being a biker"the goal of the young "male" audience.As a musician that used to play as a teen in "biker bars",I can assure you the ratio of Men & Women "that ride" are 10 men to 1 woman.Very few bikers have a "babe": as part of the culture is to find
"babes" on their road trips.Many bikers are gay,kind of like pirates.This movie ignores THAT part of the culture.In one "Party" scene Fonda is surrounded by SIX "BABES",yeah right.Fonda plays a self absorbed "JERK" that seems more like the untalented son of a great actor INSTEAD of some "cool dude" any biker would follow.Real "Hells Angels" would have had Fonda for lunch.Nancy Sinatra is also unbelievable.I don't think dad
Frank Sinatra would approve.This movie has more "RAPE"scenes than any movie I've seen in recent history.What's good about this movie is the locations.It's cool to see Venice Beach etc.in 1080 Blu-ray! The soundtrack music is "cool man"! GOOD PRINT QUALITY! If you want to see a bunch of shallow,self centered,a-holes that don't shower and RAPE WOMEN,then this movie is for you!

One of my favorite biker flicks.

If you like old biker flicks this is a must have, yes it's cheesy but the the bikes are killer.

Typical Peter Fonda movie

Poor story--Peter Fonda as usual tries to play the stereotypical outlaw--and fails. A very underwhelming movie. Hells Angels on Wheels with Jack Nicholson is much better.
