On Any Sunday: The Next Chapter

Every motorcyclist needs to see this film, it's more of an experience than a narrative that weaves in and out of many different motorcycle worlds. Road racing, off-road, flat tracking, stunt biking, salt flats & more.

Dana is a hugely talented filmmaker in his own right, but choosing to create a follow-up to the iconic original is a big risk. But he pulled it off even better than dad did.

There is so much depth to any particular type of riding or racing, covering such a wide swath like this reminds us what we all have in common: The love of motorcycling.

43 years ago I watched the original On Any Sunday and I have watched it on DVD several times a year ever since. It launched my motorcycle racing, restoring and riding hobby. It was a superb movie.

After watching the Next Chapter, I was profoundly disappointed! The movie was a hodgepodge of photo ops that made absolutely no sense and didn't tie into the original On Any Sunday at all.

At the ending of the Next Chapter movie the sound track from the original On Any Sunday was played and I felt that was a cheap attempt to tie both movies together. Fell flat on its face.

The only thing I enjoyed about this Next Chapter movie was the popcorn.

If you haven't seen the original On Any Sunday ..watch it and you to will be hooked on motorcycles for life!

After seeing the original I was excited when I heard about this and couldn't wait to watch it. I sat with huge expectations that were not disappointed. The reviews from others are a 'tad' on the harsh side.

The hold on Moto Gp was for no longer than 10 minutes throughout the entire 90 minutes. "The Doctor" running around Africa on his motorbike was showing the passion he has for his bike and how much it has changed other peoples lives. Is that really a reason to give a film a bad review?. Unless I am mistaken, It is also about the passion of motorcycling.

I also didn't see a 90 minute advert for the popular energy drink. Only when coverage was shown of the Moto Gp which is sponsorship and you'll get that if you watch the GP!.

My Father In Law is a retired TT racer and I've had a passion for bikes since forever. If this film doesn't ignite the passion then you really are not meant to be watching it. Also watch the first. You will love it.

If you get some spare time and haven't already, check out TT-Closer to the Edge. Another fantastic movie.
