Review of Easy Rider (1969) by Zack B — 08 Jun 2010

My high expectations for this movie were met with disappointment during.

The first twenty minutes of this movie. But thank god I stuck with it!

The style doesn't change after that mark, but for some reason it grasps.

You. You really appreciate it. A lot of that has to do with OUTSTANDING.

Acting by Peter Fonda, Jack Nicholson, and Dennis Hopper. Hopper.

Especially puts up a fantastic performance in a Lee Marvin esquire.

Role.

While the film dives into the relationships and places the two biker.

Buddies encounter on a road to New Orleans, the movie really shines on.

The journey from stop to stop. The best parts of "Rider" are the scenes.

Where the two stars roam the streets through beautiful western.

Locations. The scenes are that much more special due to an outstanding.

Soundtrack.

The film making was, however, a little shaky. One problem I had was the.

Over use of the off-and-on "shutter" transition from scenes. The.

Multiple angles and takes when picking up the hitch hiker was.

Confusing. But as a director, Hopper did include some great moments.

Including picking the landscape and his work with the LSD scene.

At the beginning of the movie you really feel like Fonda and Hopper are.

Going to be stabbing rebels. But as it goes along you experience a.

Revelation and realize they're anything but. You really feel for these.

Characters and in return they make you feel free for 100 minutes. Jack.

Nicholson also provides some amazing lines, and definitely is.

Responsible for creating a masterpiece moment when discussing UFOs, the.

Scenes strongest scene.
