Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man

This bad boy buddy film is one hell of a lot better than you might think. Starring Mickey Rourke and Don Johnson as a biker and a cowboy who try to help an old friend and end up hunting for revenge this film has enough action for any red blooded male. The ladies may enjoy watching Rourke and Johnson but this oneis most certainly for the men. The late Big John Studd has a nice role as does Daniel Baldwin and Tom Sizemore playing yet another scum bag, in this case a drug dealing banker. I sometimes think Sizemore needs a new agent, then again, he does play a great bad guy. Look for some nice cameo work from Tia Carrere and Kelly Hu as well as a bit part and performance from Vanessa Williams. It should also be noted Don Johnson is in great form here in this role tailor made for his style. Not one of Rourke's better films but certainly passable.

I really loved this movie when it came out...and at the time, the premise and setting was unique and inventive. I hear it hasn't held up that well over time, but I still love this movie. I thought it was original in some ways and yet a great classic buddy flick. I own this somewhere in fact...
