‘The Bikeriders’ with Bennett Campbell Ferguson
Episode 18
End of the road for this kick, gang. And fittingly enough “The Bikeriders” (2024) is all about how no good hangout can last.
But it’s also about a lot of actors—Tom Hardy, Jodie Comer, Austin Butler, Michael Shannon, and 15 more—bringing wildly different performance styles to the table in this requiem for a Chicagoland biker gang.
Film critic Bennett Campbell Ferguson is back to discuss whether “The Bikeriders” is cosplay or something deeper.
