Description
"Hotly staged bike chases" (Variety), state-of-the-art weaponry and "excellent explosions" (Hollywood Drama-Logue) form a deadly combination in this "lively" (Los Angeles Times) action film about a couple of modern-day, motorcycle-ridin' Robin Hoods. Starring Mickey Rourke (Get Carter), Don Johnson (Tin Cup) and Vanessa L. Williams (Shaft), Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man contains thrills and excitement that never let upwith surprise twists at every turn! In the lawless world of the future, drifters Harley Davidson (Rourke) and The Marlboro Man (Johnson) help an old friend save his bar by robbing the very bank trying to takeover his property. But this is no ordinary bank and the armored car they roll is filled not with moneybut drugs! Now Harley and Marlboro become the objects of a ruthless manhunt by the corrupt bank chief's deadly and unstoppable henchmen.

Sheathing itself in bad taste, this film flaunts its tackiness, its machismo, and its very stupidity, which of course makes for a lot of dopey fun. Harley Davidson (Mickey Rourke) returns to his roots, the LA of 1996 (the film was set in the near future, as it was made in 1991). Burbank has become an airport, a new drug called Crystal Dream is all the rage, and Harley's favorite bar is being torn down. To save it, he and the Marlboro Man (Don Johnson, at his most engaging) concoct an armed robbery that goes awry. Instead of cash, they end up with a shipment of Crystal Dream. Hunted by a drug dealer's goons, the two bark, fight, drink, and squint at each other as they try to get themselves out of their mess. This is Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid for the monster-truck crowd, with plenty of breasts, choppers, broken pool cues, and empty bottles. It's impossible to blame this film for being so emphatically trashy; its creators would consider that a compliment, anyway. --Keith Simanton

Heavy on the heavy metal, chopper hogs and chrome fetishes. Loud motorcycles and pole-dancing strip clubs. Even the convenience store clerk is drop dead gorgeous. Loud guns, bar fights, big explosions and high speed chases. HARLEY DAVIDSON AND THE MARLBORO MAN is one of those testosterone loaded guy flicks that more or less defies criticism. Set in the near future - 1996 (the movie was released in 1991) - Mickey Rourke plays Harley Davidson and Don Johnson plays Marlboro Man, a pair of hard-living buddies who find themselves in possession of $2.5 million worth of `crystal dream,' a street drug that its owner, sleazy banker Tom Sizemore, will go to great lengths to get back. He sends heavily-armed and kevlar armored Daniel Baldwin and his gang of identically clad goons to retrieve the stuff. Okay, it ain't Citizen Kane, but if you like watching stuff blowing up, guys getting into a lot of fights and women dressed in...

It's defiantly entertaining and if you need to kick back with a beer after work and forget about things you can just pop this ... in and its instant gratification. I love the performances in it and the custom bike mickey rode in this speaks for itself.. 11 of 12 people found the following review helpful: best film i ever watch in television, By jumar sudiyana (Jakarta, Indonesia) - See all my reviews This review is from: Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man [VHS] (VHS Tape) i knew this film from television broadcast in jakarta indonesia, i interest to know about the film because since children i like cow boy for example bonanza.
