We were both looking forward to watching this. Great actors, and a seemingly engrossing story. Told from the view point of Jodie Comer initially we both thought it got off to a good start. It was atmospheric of the era, and there was nothing wrong with the clothes or cinematography.
But it was actually a dull story. Dull. A story of a biker gang in the late 50' early 60's. The gang and their colours were everything. They weren't particularly'bad', the bad ones come later, after returning from Vietnam- and the increasing drug culture. Austin Butler now appears to have one particular way of acting. He wants to look like James Dean (he does have a passing resemblance), and I find him stilted and too full of angst. Jodie was ok, although why you would hang around with these people - the life appears one of poverty and strife. Love Tom Hardy, but it was very much a brooding role. Burdened with the role of leader, it could only end one way. We stuck with it, but frankly, we won't ever watch it again.
