Wild Hogs:
Four Guys from the Suburbs Hit the Road... and the Road Hits Back. 

 

One of the best parts of being a biker is the ability to chose your two-wheel family.  Tim Allen, John Travolta, Martin Lawrence and William H. Macy are not the kinds of motorcycle riders I'd want to see at my side for hundreds of miles, but together, they look to be entertaing enough for a couple of hours of laughs.


These guys are clearly brothers from a different mother, but when their paths cross with an authentic biker gang, the notorious Del Fuegos who don't appreciate the weekend bikers, let the rumble begin. 

 

Movie opens March 2, 2007.  For more information, see the offical site at www.wildhogsmovie.com or check back later for a 1st5ive.com movie review.
