I would have getting "meh" rating. There is no plot except townspeople vs. bikers. But Brando shines as bad boy.
Honestly there is good in nearly every Marlon Brando film and this is no different, I got what I needed and it was good
This will make you want to believe you can ride motorcycles wear leather and smoke cigarette’s but you can’t because your not Brando
Is this title ironic? The gang is about as threatening as a pack of junior high school boys annoying the hell out of their science teacher.
the only good thing about it that it's classic and I admire that. rather than this, it's just noise with no meaning.
Important for film & cultural history. One of first films to portray youth rebellion. Brando looks cool in black leather jacket.
Pretty great performance but a slim, not super interesting story
Classic Marlon Brando in rebellious mode, worth watching
Not the very best, but definitely the original. This movie created an archetype that influenced other pictures and American culture.
The plot was basically nonexistent and it was just a lot of hating on the troublemakers.
