Title: Unenjoyable
Review: Hell's Angels 69 is essentially a stereotypical caper movie in which a couple of protagonists try to pull off a heist but things go seriously wrong. Only in this case the main mistake they make is upsetting members of the Hells Angels. Using real bikers, this film had great potential, but it fails on all counts.Hell's Angels TRIES to be a deeply serious film, but unlike artistically good caper films (e.g. The Asphalt Jungle or The Killing) all the characters are one-dimensional and absolutely nobody is in the least bit likeable, nor are any insights provided. And because it tries so hard to be serious and weighty, the film commits the even worse crime of being no fun at all. It doesn't even work as an unintentional comedy. In other words, Hell's Angels 69 is nothing more than a dreary, pretentious, existentialist film about the dangers of greed and hubris. NOT a good adventure film or biker flick. Get Wild Angels (which manages to be both fun and dramatic) instead.
