Jodie Comer


Oscar worthy but had no idea her character would be the dominant role in the movie.

Michael Shannon, as always was good, but his part was not big enough, which was a bummer


Because he was too much of a pussy and didn't want to learn how to ride a motorcycle.

Austin Butler might be one of the worst actors in Hollywood right now. Everything he does is a caricature of the stereotype he is trying to play. He is so bad that it distracts and ruins almost everything he is in. Matter of fact, I almost watched Bikeriders but decided not to because the movie "poster" on peacock had Austin Butlers stupid "im so mysterious and deep" squinty stare on it.



I don't understand what the frick he's doing right now. It's bizarre how bad he's been since Elvis.

I thought the ending was kind of meh. Not bad, just felt like "ok, it’s over now".

I had to rewind and make sure that was the ending. Almost bizarre to me.

Wasn't bad in Masters of the Air but God awful in Dune.

Definitely not the Hollywood "it boy" he was after Elvis

He was unbearable in masters of air. Made it unwatchable.

I thought Dune was the bright spot but there's only so much you can do/frick up with that little screen time

His star has dimmed and they are pushing Glen Powell now.

I may be in the minority, but I thought he pulled off the Harkonnan villain pretty well in Dune 2



Dominated that role.

But I found him unwatchable in Masters of the Air. He just oozes douche unless he's a hairless white alien demon.

Your opinion is highly compromised by thinking he was good in masters of air. How can we take what you think seriously after sharing that opinion?

has a pretty great oldies soundtrack (until they ruined it with the Lucero track during the credits)


You do realize that's why the song is in the credits and not the movie itself, because it didn't fit the period, but still told the Benny story.

Besides, the Lucero song is basically why Jeff Nichols is so intimate with the material, because Ben Nichols is his brother, and wrote "Bikeriders" as a song 25 years ago.

Completely disagree. The accents were off putting and the dialogue was barely above that of the average Neanderthal.

Salmon said it best with Butler

Boring. I was looking forward to this but IMO from what I’ve watched so far, it never caught my attention. I’ve tried to watch it twice and got bored each time.
