In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

Since 2010, the We Hate Movies podcast has been loudly celebrating and tearing apart movies from across the spectrum: from forgotten '80s actioners and insane romantic comedies of the '90s, to the early CGI blockbusters of the aughts and the hyper-nostalgic franchises of the 2010s and today. Every week, comedians Andrew Jupin, Stephen Sajdak, Eric Szyszka, and Chris Cabin pick a movie from the near-past to discuss and joke around about in all its positive and negative glory.

“The Bikeriders” Movie Review

Kevin says The Bikeriders kinda rocks!
Writer/director Jeff Nichols takes a road trip into the past with his new film THE BIKERIDERS.
The story follows a journalist profiling a Chicago motorcycle club in the late 60 and early 70s. Seen through the eyes of one of the wives, the story focuses on the leader played by Tom Hardy and one of the members played by Austin Butler.
Rather than being a version of SONS OF ANARCHY, this film take a more historic approach. The subject matter and the filmmaking styles evoke a sense of the drive-in biker movies from this era.
There are strong performances all around, but the story is limited by its flawed subject matter. Tom Hardy’s character is the most nuanced and interesting. Austin Butler does little more than smolder at the camera and look cool.
Even Jodie Comer struggles as the unreliable narrator. For as much agency she is given in the film, her role exists solely to support the male leads.
It’s an interesting movie, but much more of a historical character study than a modern outlaw western.
THE BIKERIDERS get three carburetors out of five. I’m Kevin Carr, and that’s the way I see it.
