EXCITING: John Travolta and his Wild Hogs team.
John Travolta stars in the new comedy ‘Wild Hogs’ along with William H Macy, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence and Ray Liotta. They play weekend warriors — taking a thrilling bike-trip across America, but they are not prepared for the dang
ers that lie ahead, in the form of a tough, threatening biker gang. Already a number one box-office hit in the States, the film is fresh, exciting and very funny.
‘Wild Hogs’ was pure joy for John Travolta and the rest of the cast, as they were all living out the fantasy of nearly every man of leaving behind the stress of regular life and heading for the wide-open road, on a cross-country bike trip.
Male bonding
They put on their leather biker gear, straddle their Harley-Davidsons and rev up for action; setting out from Cincinnati for the California coast, on a 2000-mile trek, for some male bonding. The four friends hit the road, little expecting trouble ahead. When they find themselves embroiled in a conflict in the heart of New Mexico, with the tough Del Fuego biker gang, led by the darkly aggressive Jack (Ray Liotta) they are forced to prove their mettle.
The Del Fuegos are full time bikers who view the Wild Hogs as too tame for their taste. Wildly funny with plenty of physical comedy and action, set to a powerful rock soundtrack, the film is directed with pace and vigour by Walt Becker Martin Lawrence plays a plumber who hates his job, Tim Allen plays a dentist who wishes he was a doctor, William H. Macy is a computer nerd who can’t get a date, while John Travolta is the coolest of the bunch — he stars as Woody, a high flying executive with a stunning wife. At the start of the movie, his career is crumbling and his marriage is in tatters. It is his idea to gather his biker pals and set out for an escapist taste of carefree adventure, on the road trip of a lifetime.
