Cycle Vixens Audience Reviews

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
brad kittleson First, look for the DVD "Young Cycle Girls", finally out there, and offering the unedited edition with the original title. This movie needs all its profanity and nudity restored. You won't regret buying this, it is an amazing experience. While it won't make IMDb's top 250 list anytime soon (a tragedy), it is every bit as much a rewarding experience to watch as any film made. The ending is the sort of shock ending M. Night Shyamalan tries to equal in his movies. the female liberation and bonding are what Thelma and Louise so awkwardly tried to portray. The acting is well... This movie should be seen under the influence, and with as many people as you can get to watch it with. There will be time for repeated viewings later to disseminate the movie itself. just enjoy the ride!
betelguese_1 This movie is what you would get if you crossed Easy Rider with Thelma and Louise, and had a 14-year old write the script. The ending is so odd that I sat in my bean bag frozen in awe of it's sheer lunacy. I only wish enough of you would see this movie to actually make the Worst Movie List, but doing so would probably double the total viewers who have ever seen this film.
RexMaynard OK, there are those likely to pan this movie as intolerable and unwatchable. I'd like to point out that they've probably seen it on VHS released as "Cycle Vixens" (the original title was the more poignant "Young Cycle Girls".) In that case they are to be excused. The poor editing (I suspect the dub comes off of late night TV) ruins the true beauty of this film. No film demands the unedited, seen-at-a-drive-in experience quite like this one. Three young beauties living in suburban hell decide to throw caution to the wind and ride their cycles to California (beaches, boys and beer!). En route they encounter peeping toms - whom the girls at first happily grant a free look, then berate the dirty pervert (something they may regret later), corrupt cops, and junkie rapists. On the lighter side, they do have a blast at a 70's version of a water park, rock out to station 108 with groovy pot smoking teens, and have a laugh riot with Jerome and his morbidly obese girl. All the while the girls grow, both internally and externally. Although heartbreaking to watch them living in the cold, emotionally dead households they come from, you too shall be liberated with them as they open up like butterflies emerging from the cocoon while "cruisin down the road". The only reason to continue living for america's youth seems to be a glimpse of the pacific ocean, and these girls carry on their shoulders the hopes of America's 70's youth culture with great courage. Do they get to the promised land (or ocean)? Why do they regret mocking hulking semi-retarded perverts? Who is "cool Jinx" and is he really cool? I would tell you, but these are things you simply need to experience for yourself. If all you can find is the horrific, heavily edited VHS "Cycle Vixens", well you should watch it, but realize you're only catching the tip of the iceberg.
eataTREE This movie is so bad, it's embarrassing. I think it's intended as a sort of morality fable on the dangers of sex, drugs, and rock and roll. But the story is so muddled it's hard to tell. I hope they did not pay someone to write the screenplay.This might make good subject material for Mystery Science Theatre, or as something to giggle at while stoned. Other than that, don't bother.
